I'm pretty sure it will be like this;

Fantasy, Stork, Calm, Modesty seeded into OSL.
All other players from last seasons OSL Ro16 automatically into the Dual Tournament (to make 6 groups).

From the amateur qualifiers, 12 will qualify into the offline qualifiers for the Dual Tournament, where they will be mixed in with the pool of progamers. From there, only 12 (out of all the pros/ams) will qualify for the Dual Tournament to join the 12 players from last seasons OSL.

Out of the Dual Tournament (which is MST style), only 12 will qualify out of 24 to the next OSL.

I will be watching closely Terror as well as any match fixers (if they turn out to be allowed and any do play).

Dunno if it would be a good idea for (Z)EffOrt to participate in this. He may be a bit out of shape after his temporary retirement, but he is still a force to be reckoned with, especially compared to amateurs. Since the main purpose of this league is to bring the spotlight onto some new blood for BW, I think it would be wise to let the amateurs have their moments of glory.

And giving players a chance to play effort would hinder this how? Giving players a chance to show they have game against someone like Effort is a good thing, Idra got noticed by CJ because he played well against Stork.

True. However, I'm just afraid that a semi-former progamer like Effort has a good chance of roflstomping their way through the league and winning it uncontested. Having someone like Effort in the league seems really risky. On one hand, it can allow competent amateurs to get noticed if they play well against him. On the other hand, there is no guarantee that there won't be a complete roflstomp from him.


Yes, but under this format why should someone like Effort be denied a chance to qualify for the OSL? Scouting is one major purpose of this tournament, but it is first and foremost an OSL qualifier and I don't think its reasonable to say that a player can't try to qualify because he may be way above the level of the rest of the players in the qualifier.

This is alot like golf qualifiers for the U.S. Open. You have a bunch of amateurs but many of the participants include PGA Tour pro's that won't obtain exemptions through regional or sectional qualifiers through their play on tour.


Also, I love these changes! Excellent way to scout for new talent and I love the format of an open tournament. While its incredibly unlikely some amateur will qualify for, and then win, an OSL it still makes for great entertainment with that possibility lurking, and I am sure we will eventually seem some decent runs by amateurs that will add alot of suspense to the tournament.
EffOrt and Soulkey Hwaiting!

First thought when reading this; is it really April 1st already? O_o Second thought; wow, so now Effort can participate already anyway? Neat. Time to get your revenge, Flash. Third thought; wait... SO NOW I CAN PARTICIPATE!?!?!?! :D

Don't like the delay though, it means more time until Flash can get the record of most OSL wins.

He is banned for life and rightly so.

Clearly My Starleague was designed with Effort in mind.

Fixed. =P

So these rules mean that people like Terror[fOu] can participate? I eagerly await the epicness that would ensue.

Would also be cool if Boxer, Nada, July, or GGPlay randomly come back to participate and get into the Dual Tournament.

Really awesome, way to get more interest back in Broodwar, anyone with serious ambitions who can't make it through courage will have another shot at doing something!

"From those who are just taking a break from BW to old fans to new players who may not know Boxer and Yellow (T/N: really? everyone, regardless of age, should know about them if they play SC at any level), there are still many players out there with hidden potential. [...]"

"really?" I've got a number of friends who play StarCraft casually and most of them have absolutely no interest in the pro-scene. Just because you consider Boxer and Yellow important doesn't mean that they are important to everyone.

I rather dislike opinionated translator notes.


The return of the dual tournament is great news though!
Dear BW Gods, I know it's not autumn (in the Northern hemisphere), but please have mercy on Protoss.
