Haha so funny. A big bubble is coming to explode tomorrow, and we will all witness what is inside, the source of the hype : a pair of muscle with a big troll face.

well it has to be big, hyping and then not delivering gives incontrol a bad reputation, which i guess he does not give a sh.. about, but in the end he is representing eg.

if it is a gsl like tournament you havent overhyped it (yet)

either way <3 incontrol for making my life worthwhile, i have something to wait for and yeah you're right about them horses

Well, if it's a let down then it'll be sad, if it's a troll it'll be hilarious and if it's serious it'll be awesome.

A picture of incontrol and gretorp standing in front of a huge troll-face-banner on hollywood hills would be epic.

I think your right its been slipped in the gosu coaching 4 too, There was a comment Ret made which aligned iNcontrol with a new tournament event coming up, it was swiftly bypassed. It'd be a little funny if everyone agreed to ignore the tournament to payback the months of cock teasing. (I know that wont happen but god it'd be sweet day to see 11 year olds randoms turning up)

Hopefully it isn't some CGS-esque remake.

Honestly, I'd be fine with that, so long as it doesn't sacrifice gameplay for TV (such as Counterstrike being shortened from the standard 30 rounds) and is very specific to SC2. Also, accessible to everyone- not directTV where 90% of people don't have it.

Yep. ALl the clues were pointing towards that. He solved it folks. I moved to California to organize a show match.


That seems like a ton of wasted effort, Incontrol. :3

SC2 to CPL? http://thecpl.com/

The CPL was bought not so long ago and was a powerhouse in it's day, maybe it's not far-fetched for it to come back. Timing seems right, and they are posting SC2 news on the news feed.

Actually, I hope it's not a GSL like tournament. That'd almost imply a total Korea-Rest of the World scission. We really need a GLOBAL StarCraft II League.

More fire to support the tournament event

State of the game 02.01.11
http://sotg-sc2.blogspot.com/

around the 1 hour: 28 min mark

JP asks Ret about players coming back from Korea to play in home grown events like MLG... Ret replies with "yea definitely with the way sc2 is going and when big events start up like MLG and big events in Europe and this secretive thing iNcontrol will announce this month"
that to me implies iNcontrol doing a note worthy event set to rival MGL? :-]

This is really getting some attention from the press.


Quoting this because it hasn't gotten nearly as much attention as it deserves. Bravo.

Put me in with the GSL style tournaments in America camp that might be televised on some network. I really can't think of any other reason why they would move to California. Some of the other ideas (reality show, etc.) just don't seem big enough to me to justify the hype IMO. At least we'll know soon enough .

Not everyone can go to Korea. Also, for being able to compete in Korea, you need a great competitive scene both in the US and in Europe. Being the best in Europe wouldn't be of much value if the scene behind was quite weak.
Therefore, a strong "western" community where talented players can really prove themselves only improves the chances of having more foreigners being able to compete in GSL.

Yeah but my point is, why WOULD they even go to the GSL if there's a huge tournament with comparable prize pool in the US?
