I'm not 100 % sure but shall i consider an "I LOVE YOU AXSLAV" as an sign me up pls or is it just some thrown out love for a handsome guy from a random guy? :-D
So happy for Axslav. This opportunity is highly, highly deserved. He improved on his casting so much recently. The only sad thing about it is that he might prefer actually competing but as he said himself, there are only very few people that can focus on practicing 100% at this point in time.
Just seen that Axslav will participate today in Lone Star Clash 2 to compete for the prize pool of 15.000 $. Unfortunetely his first match in the championchip bracket will be Stephano.. i guess he didn't get the easiest way to start off a tournament but we'll see how things turn out.
If he loses i hope he gets a more fitting and non-zergy opponent in the losers bracket.
MLG will run a new format called "Tournament of Champions". It will debut on Monday, December 3rd with a best of 5 series between Flash and DRG. The tournament is a three week series, will be free to watch in HD and will feature matches between:
DongRaeGu (Spring Arena 1, Spring Championship)
Flash (KeSPA Invitational at Spring Championship)
Leenock (Summer Championship)
Life (Fall Championship)
MarineKing (Winter Arena, Winter Championship)
Soo (MvP Invitational)
Parting (Battle.net World Championship, WCG 2012)
Rain (2012 OSL Finals, WCS Asia)
The format is a Single Elimination Bracket (no losers bracket) with a bunch of Best of 5 Games and Best of 7 for the finals. 1st place will take 5.000 $, 2nd will take 2.000 $. The event will be casted by Axslav and Axeltoss.
Open your eyes and make sure to read correctly on this part: Axslav will premiere a new show called Rules of Engagement on December 3rd at 5pm ET. The show is airing Monday through Thursday at 5pm ET.
Don't miss your chance to spend an hour with MLG’s top StarCraft II analyst Nick “Axslav” Ranish as he teaches and breaks down gameplay and mechanics geared at both new and advanced StarCraft II players.
Still really hoping to see you back in tournaments for HOTS though.

Another thing i wanna add:
I just updated the Tips & Tricks Corner, you can check out the latest "Rules of Engagement" VODs there. I'll always update the VODs as soon as possible.
Rules of the motherfucking engagement! So glad that MLG and Ax are doing it. That's like Day[9] daily with sick knowledge bombs one after another. No story time, but very well prepared show.
