you will lose alot of viewers because you nowhere show the scedule. no exact time for cet viewers anywhere. bad job. tsl2.

btw it is 20:00 cet if i calculated it right from est what is the only time shown. i am not full capable aware of anything since i... going to to do stuff now... coming home from a club, and giving a girls some time...
my smiley drinks green tea. works. just, the commercial investments are lower.

SC will never die maybe will lose in popularity so everybody stop "killing" the game we love lol

I doubt you're going to have the competitive base outside of korea to sustain tournaments. I'd happily be proven wrong, but I just dont see it happening (note how many of the top bw players are massing SC2 atm and not looking back). No company will want to sponsor sc outside of korea when you have sc2 either.

SC will live on in Korea for atleast a year, probably longer but it all depends on how they take up the game. But really, this is going to be the the last truly major foreign tournament and to think otherwise at this stage is naive.

Didn't Ret talk of an elite tournament sometime in the near future? IDK if it's so naive to think that.


I dont think SC will die, but if the people who sponsor and host tournaments don't want to host them, then there will be no tournaments.

They even have a countdown in the green banner. They're keeping it all very well informed if you just check it

I doubt it because
- It's in the calender
- It's in the green bar
- It's the same time every week
I don't know how much more we can do =/ Some times theres just not enough space on graphics to put every single timezone unfortunately.

BOOOOOYAAAA!

I'm sooo pumped and looking forward to a great series. As for who I'm rooting for, I'll have to say Mondi, cuz I'm 1/4 german. ^^'
Who I think is gonna win? - I can't even start to think that someone can really predict the winner here - there's just no way!
Mondragon has performed so well and even with oldschool-style and sometimes very very slightly off mechanics (mostly Macro-wise, although Mondi has a very high APM, but maybe used it a bit more on his INCREDIBLE Defiler-Control) he just was on Top of his opponents, while getting stronger after every Match.
Nony on the other hand is a very strong player overall, but IMO extremely good at Mindgames concerning Build-Orders. If you outhink him, he double-outhinks you: If you think he will rush you, because you like to macro and play a less macro-oriented opener, he'll not rush you but macro himself.

If you think he knows that you think that he thinks you'll go for a safe-opening, because you think he knows that you like to macro and go for a macro-build just because you think you've tricked him not changin your style (double-mindtrick), he'll somehow figure it out anyways.

His BO's are just so unpredictable and he's able to follow strategies up in the best possible way concerning how the game has been played out so far. Pair that with impeccable Mechanics and you pretty much have an extremely talented SC-Player. The part in which he probably isn't as well rounded as Mondragon is creativity and experience.

If you would merge those two players into an awesomeness-Archon namend "Mony" (or "Nondragon", or "Nonymon"), they'd even tear up the Koreans if you ask me! ^^'
