Awesome news! TSL is gonna kick so much ass. The casters are perfect. The map pool is less than perfect IMO (ROTK, Blue Storm and HBR should've been in ), but it's good enough.


lol ROTK and HBR sucks and Blue storm is so overplayed and boring

I think the map choices are good except for Andromeda, that will be one P>T and Z>P graveyard

In what way does ROTK suck?

too bad about the country restrictions. such discrimination, in the name of lag no less, is unsettling.
i play on iccup from china all the time. sometimes there is lag with poland but no problems playing EU, or north america. hope you can figure this out so that more gaoshou players are allowed into the TSL making it more entertaining. also, i presume idra and ret will be allowed to play?

wtf ROTK is an awesome map, I was always sad that it was only used in the OSL. (Byzantium is pretty good too, but ROTK is sexier)

and yes, HBR sucks

Generally how soon will the game VODs become available to download? From TSL1: Round 1 games took place May08, first Vods post was June08. Can we expect the same sort of timing?

(Assuming live streaming will be available?)

Also, VODs were made available on Youtube almost immediately after each game, if I remember correctly. The VODs were just available for direct download at the end, but the torrents and youtube VODs were available throughout.


Thanks guys...can't wait.
(Nice to see another South African on TL!)

andromeda, great macro map, fairly balanced
desti, everyone knows this, really balanced imo
fighting spirit, new map, but really good map from what we've seen so far
tornado i love this map^^
outsider sux hard. change it to heartbreak ridge, its alot more balanced and fun. u should really have a voting on this cause i believe 90% of the ppl enjoy hbr more..
these casters are all awesome

rules, great rules gj altho as a massgamer myself it will be hard keeping in mind my win/loss the last day :S

Start: November 21, 2009
End: December 13, 2009

short ladder stage, would like it more if it started next season tbh but i guess this is fine. im gonna have alot of school absence during these dark times i think xd

TSL is looking great so far, except for outsider, i hope creator of that map will burn in hell <3 (jk)

We'd love it if Chinese players could play in the TSL. It's just impossible to have LAN latency between Americans / Europeans and Chinese. In fact, we're exploring other options (sponsors possibly flying certain Chinese players out of the country to participate).

Don't accuse us of discrimination and "faking" the lag as an excuse -- that's extremely asinine and obviously not what is happening here.

Oh c'mon Knight. What's wrong with Desti? =p


Also, Chill vs Artosis grudgematch, please?
seriously next disrespectful comment in this blog is ip ban. Be happy or get the hell out. // SC2 is like playing with neutral-colored Play-Doh while BW is like colorful Legos.

Yes, provided you do not have a Chinese or Korean IP.
