when does the OSL dual tournament start?
have they already had the offlines for OSL?
Where is savior as far as that goes?


Savior lost to Pusan in the last offlines, so he has to go through those.

The prize money is SOOOOOOOO much!

This should motivate more players to do better. And the fact that you can earn money at even the quarterfinals is awesome for progamers.

I'm assuming that Batoo is a very rich sponsor?

Hmm, according to current googling,
"1 South Korean won = 0.000678 U.S. dollars"
"1 U.S. dollar = 1 474.92625 South Korean won"

Still a lot

In terms of corporate expenditures 200-300k that they're putting up as prize money is so little. I'm surprised this hasn't happened earlier. It's the cost of one mid-level manager for a year, and the benefits are arguably much greater.

Do we have any hard figures as to how profitable of a business Starcraft is?

Loll awesome price money, I hope we see some new players this OSL though.

But yeah, Batoo sounds really stupid, doesn't sound epic like Bacchus or anything.

Batoo = Butter = Butter OSL?

Batoo appears to be some hip-ish Go client, eh? Well, that's interesting. When the OP said some online Korean game I assumed an mmo!

Wait, so the offline prelims haven't even started and we know the sponsor, while the MSL is already in the survival stage and we're still clueless?
