Is there any other change to the qualifiers except it's now two tournaments instead of three?

THANK. GOD. FOR A DOUBLE ELIM RO 24 GROUP STAGE
|
Very exciting, especially the map pool 
thx for the heads up
|
I don't see any difference from Polypoid, Largo, Good Night, except their names. I think Polypoid, Ascension, Eclipse should be replace by one MSL, one OSL and one Proleague map.
At least, we have Lemon. It's the best map in this season!

I'd be surprised if he actually manages to play to his standard because of his wrist, personally I wouldn't even partake, I'd get my wrist fixed.

Wrists don't really get 'fixed'.

Great to have it back. If Larva really isn't participating, there'll also be a wild card mini tournament to look forward to.

awesome, I love how to randomly take a look at TL and see there are still BW tournaments <3
