Hello Fans of Starcraft Broodwar!
The ICCupBWTV Team is proud to announce here, that we will provide an english coverage for the current ongoing C-OSL 6. After some long late night hours, i was able to contact the Head Admin of the C-OSL 6, Dingdang and convince him to share the replays for all the Round of 8, Round of 4 and the Finals with ICCup.com.
What is the C-OSL?
The Chinese our StarCraft League is probably the biggest chinese SC:BW Tournament held every year. The series was started in 2012 and is inspired by the chinese PLU Leagues.
The tournament is of high interest for any Broodwar fan for two reasons: Firstly, this iteration of the C-OSL is attended by notable Progamers in Movie and ZerO and secondly, it is not a given that those are going to have an easy route to face each other in the finals, as the competition is very strong. In the Round of 8, not only korean Amateurs / Semi pro's like ZeLoT and Scan are poised to take them, also the top players of the chinese Scene, like Zhanhun and Fengzi are strong contenders. If you want to know more about the C-OSL and the chinese Mastermind of SC:BW you might check out this Interview with dingdang, conducted a year ago.
