Mostly it's A-teamers. Some other gosus are Mong, Sky, and sSak.

A-teamers include: Movie, HiyA, Killer etc.


Also: Sea!

I mentioned people still in it ^^

a lot of ex pros like Hiya, Sea, Ssak, Iris, By,hero, Movie, Shuttle, Pusan, Tyson, Killer and a lot of skilled practice partners and on top of that you have a couple of amateurs

I'm confused as to why Sonic would change the date to conflict with the GSL finals. Not sure how much it's going to affect the actual turnout / viewership in Korea, but the foreigner viewership will probably be a lot less now

Well don't see how it is a problem with the conflict between the two programs because for certain the turn out will depend on Broodwar fans of the old who still want to watch nada and yellow since it's korea we are talking about many loyal fans should be available to watch it .

Gsl finals is interesting ....but my take on it sonic could have push it backwards to the date maybe to give more time for fans to be prepared or for the production crews to do more planning and other thing that maybe needed to run the events. Don't think he wanted it to clash the supposed grand gsl finals on purpose though (In my opinion).

On the issue about foreigner viewership will be less now I don't think sonic is going to have any loss even if the viewership is drop because of the clash between the two finals . Vods will be available if you can't view both at the same time

Nevertheless hoping for a win win situation....

That's inconvenient... Guess we'll have to redo our plans for a live viewing in Stockholm.
And if the GSL finals are at the same date then moving it to 1st of June makes little sense to me. Of course I don't that the amateur BW-scene depends on all the GSL-viewers showing up, but it's still a pity that people will be forced to choose between the two.

Whatever, I'm sure Sonic has his reasons, and I'm sure the finals will be just as epic even if we have to wait 2 weeks longer then expected

My prediction is that the final will be a TvT =/

I have slightly more faith in Killer than Hero.

its especially weird because LoL has its semifinal on friday may 17 (since my initial assumption was that it must have conflicted with kim carrier in LoL or something)

because it seems out of sonic's way to reschedule jamsil's gymnasium, because I imagine something as large as that wants a months notice for the scheduling. Its odd to say "we'll cancel the stadium on the 18th but move it to the 1rst!"

ah well, really hope them yellow and nada fans pack the place, because surely more than a couple korean starcraft fans will be torn between the bogus vs other kespa player (sHy) in gsl finals and the hiya ssak finals* :p

Sonic's probably trying to drive the GSL out of business by stealing their viewers and then SC2 will die off all because of Sonic

Sonic's changing the venue for the finals. Not announced the new place yet, but will do so after Ro4. His main reason was that he realized it'd be too hard to fill the stadium.

Thanks snipe for translating <3
