Bacchus will sponsor the next ongamenet starleague. This is the 2nd time Bacchus is sponsoring an OSL. The first time ended in early 2008 (correct me if Im wrong) with Flash owning stork for the OSL crown. Will flash be inspired to win it all again this season? Tune in to find out.

Offliners will start on May 1, 2009 and the Finals will be on August 22, 2009. The champion will be receiving 40,000,000 won and runner-up will get 20,000,000 won.

lets just hope this bacchus osl doesn't become fuck-as boring as the last one
that was like the worst modern-day osl ever

Offline Qualifiers happens on the 1st of May.
BackHo gets an auto qualifier into the Round of 36 so there will only be 23 offline groups.
Round of 36 starts on the 6th of May.
Round of 16 stats on the 19th of June.
Other dates;
Round of 8 estimated to start on the 24th of July.
Round of 4 on the 12th of August.
Finals on the 22nd of August.

Prize Money is a total of 10,800,00 won, distributed over;
First: 40,000,00 won
Second: 20,000,00 won
The rest is distributed among the Round of 36 participants with greater money going from the semi-finalists and the lowest money to the Round of 36 knock-outs.

Sweet - another excuse to drink copious amounts of Bacchus. I wish Backho had gotten seeded, but auto-qualify is better than nothing.

When I hear Bacchus OSL, the first thing that comes to mind is the awesome intro they had:

I got to admit. Because Flash won the last bacchus osl I have never ever bought any energy drink not named bacchus (i drank redbull before). So this stuff works for advertising. Same with samsung, I always tell my parents to buy samsung. Not because I love khan but because samsung supports esports.

brb buying more bacchus.

Savior please

The previous Bacchus OSL was so small scale... hope they do a better job and provide more interesting maps this time

Demon's Forest and Troy were kick-ass maps, looking forward to what they can bring out next.

Awesome. Baucchus always struck me as a very appropriate and very regal sounding name for a starleague. Here's to what will hopefully be another great OSL season!
