Unfortunately, some korean will complain even if it's TR20.

They'll pinpoint the lag to the foreigner, and just DQ the foreigner. It's a subtle way to simply say "koreans only"

6/28,6/29, Dewalt wins online qualifiers.
6/30 Fly to Seoul
7/1 offline qualifier

That’s the plan.


that is also my plan, except i have no idea how that will work out.
my shortest flight time from germany to seoul is 15 hours + 4 hours time i need to get to airport/be at airport early enough.
no exact times when the 2nd qualifier round on the 29th will be and i basically have book the ticket and go to the airport right after i qualified.
these flights with a shorter total flight time cost 1000€ upwards on that specific day. (from what i was currently able to check)
and hope that the plane starts at the correct time.... because all i see is start time after noon and arrival around noon the next day, how can i play the morning offline group then....

my only other option would be to cancel my (last month booked) return flight from tokyo on monday 25th, play the online tournament in tokyo and fly from tokyo to seoul on the 30th in case i qualify. (or fly few days earlier and play online quali in seoul)

if any of the top foreigners were actually serious in participating, i'm sure blizzard would waiver those who fly to korea straight into the offline portion of the qualifier.


im serious in participating but the tight online - offline schedule makes it really hard.
idk if i count as a top foreigner, but being able to directly play in the offline quali would make it waaay easier to arrange stuff.

right now i cant say with certainty if im able to attend it. i first have to check with my boss tomorrow if i can take the required days off.

edit: after thinking a little more about it, germany - tokyo - seoul is prefered for me, but need to ask boss first....

Since it's an international event then why the foreigner should be considered the one responsible for the lag ?

Unit Limits: Extended

That means unlimited control groups, doesn't it? I guess that's a mistake then.
upd: I guess, it doesn't.

i kinda have a feeling this will end ASL, even though they mentioned co-existence.


No, ofcourse not asl is on afreeca ksl is on twitch , the pro streamers stream on afreeca hence close bond with korean viewers & asl it won’t replace that Koreans prefer afreeca over twitch

Hope this tournament will have different results then ASL.
If the maps are normal Flash is likely to win as shown by his insane streak off ASL wins, if the KSL and ASL only do "standard" maps then I think it will be Flash in 2 Finals in different Tournaments which will become stale after sometime.

Anyway this is good news for people that want to see more BW.

Furthermore

3.3 (d) Individuals who cannot participate in the live broadcasted portion of KSL Main Stage, which will be held after the qualifiers, cannot participate in the KSL.

this indeed is basically ruling out any Foreigner. Except you are willing to stay in Korea (NoRegret Gaming House, go!)
But i dont know what will be sufficient proof for them and what not.

the official contact adress according to 4.3 (g) is KSLinfo@panoramaent.com

but i dont see any chance for any foreigner to have a shot, independent of the skill level.

Best of five dual tournament for group stages? That's exactly what I've been wishing for. I'm really interested in seeing how this goes.
May the BeSt man win.
