Blah, 1900 KST is like 5:00 AM on EST for me.

This was the similar problem I had with KSL and ended up not watching a single game of it live (and eventually not watching more than half of matches).

1200/1300 KST (10/11 PM EST) was perfect for me back then for me to live translate and be involved in chat/blogging but 1900 KST just kills it for me.

This may be one SSL I won't see it live and most likely result to very delayed (nor barely any at all) watched SSL for me.....

I'm so excited for this. Cheering for bisu of course. I also didn't understand why bisu and effort didn't have to do the challenge day but as long as bisu is participating...

maybe because they got direct invites, but I don't understand why Sea didn't then....

Same here... I reckon it makes sense with there only being three slots that they went to (P)

Bisu,

EffOrt, and (Z)

ZerO (to fill the slots of of SSL 10 top16 Mini, Snow, and JangBi)

Perhaps because ZerO at least played in SSL 10 and Bisu and EffOrt have name recognition, thus forcing Sea to be left out?

But considering how unprepared Sea was for (P)

Olympus, I wonder if he would have lost immediately in the Ro24, as well...

^^Bit of a mess, more organized on the (Wiki)

SSL11 page.

Nice racial distribution... 9 Toss, 8 Zerg, 7 Terran. Albeit with 4 Terrans to be seeded into the Ro16.

Even so, maybe it'll be slightly less of a TvT-fest this time around. Maybe.

I don't know if I'll be able to upload the recordings to Youtube. For SSL10, they all got hit with copyright claims from OGN so all I had was Twitch VODs.

I actually think ample has a good shot out of his group.

I must say, I have a huge expectation of IcaruS. He is not a pro-gamer but certainly worthier than many former pro-gramers. It is very unfortunate his first opponent is Bisu, though.
