EPTSeems like a cool way of scouting for new talents. It certainly would be cool to see a select few people pull out ahead of the masses and show us some progamer-level games.

It's always nice to see some changes in the BW scene though. It's nice that they're trying new stuff with it. I hope it works out for the best. | ||

Am I misinterpreting this entirely? It's always nice to see some changes in the BW scene though. It's nice that they're trying new stuff with it. I hope it works out for the best. Nope, no progamer license required for it, which is why there is a slight possibility for Effort to show up at this kind of event. The average Joe can enter the league, and KeSPA probably allowed all this to happen. This is more of a scouting opportunity though to find new talent rather than a 10 year old taking home the gold. (Although it can happen!) | ||

Obviously top tier players like Flash, Bisu, and Jaedong will stay the fuck away from each other in hopes of not getting knocked out in prelims. This does mean that players will be carefully picking their locations based on who's playing where. No one in their right mind would go to flash's location. No no no. The whole prelims held in different areas thing is only for average people. The progamers get their whole thing later, with the group selections and all that good jazz. The different areas are for picking the best players in each region so that they can all duke it out with each other in the end and hopefully, best case scenario, get picked up by a progaming team. | ||

O thanks for clearing that up, it seemed like a premade bracket in the making. Well in that case, THIS IS AWESOME!!! Going to see Effort, Terror, Minus)Eagle, and maybe even Rekrul and Ret (I hope) kicking some ass! This is epic, way to make it big OSL! | ||

Technically yeah, which is why some Korean netizens are getting reeeally excited and going, "YES, THE RETURN OF MA BONJWA." But do you really think that he'll be allowed to show up around the OGN staff, nonetheless show his face on national TV again? Yeeeah, didn't think so. Of course, the Savior fanboys will ignore me and join in the Korean netizens' clamor. Get ready for huge disappointment. | ||
