In Korea, winning prize money tax rate is 4.4% and 3.3% only for progamers who registered at Kespa in the event like this (4.4% tax of prize money is not for all, for example in lottery tax 22% and 33% of over 1,000,000,000 won )

So this tournament is worldwide, but you must be in Korea in order to participate?

You don't need to be. You just need to find a way to get to Korea during the event

Wait this is korean only? How come usa doesn't get a qualifier? That's a lot of money and there's many usa/euro players who would be in top 32. This don't make sense.

Some important questions. What about hotkeys? Right now were forced to use a 3rd party program. Is that gonna be allowed or will blizzard finally get a hotkey editor. What about assigning buttons to mouse? It's nooby to not allow but wasn't that the way is bw korean tournaments? I want my buttons where I want them =o

Well it's a Korean tournament after all, opened to foreigners, this is not a world cup or something.
I think you will have the 3 blizzard options for hotkeys, standard grid and classic, you may be able to make your own hotkeys since I think the option is available in the game options. No 3rd party will be allowed and certainlly macro mouse buttons will be disallowed.
Either we are alone in the Universe or we are not. Both are equally terrifying.

This is pretty huge news imo. Its too abd the prelims are only in Seoul, but in any case, these prizes are insane. A progamer can litteraly become a millionaire now.

I don't think macro is the correct term for this. It only assigning one letter to a button. It's changing where you have to press your buttons. To not allow it would ridiculous. Hell you could just make some sort of mouse attached to a keyboard and just call it a advanced keyboard. So you could press the damn buttons how you want to. There is no single reason not to allow it and many reasons to allow it. It's 2010 not 1980.

The majority of the best players in the world are not in korea. It may be the best region but overall there is no doubt outside of korea is stronger. It's a shame the big money tournment which would also help to get more sponsors for players who play in it will only have less then 50% of the top players.

This is great news! The tournament seems very well planned out, with a strict rules set, lots of longevity (an entire year for each season), and a shockingly large prize pool. Considering that GomTV is Blizzard's South Korean partner, I think this is a step in the right direction, with Blizzard (who has the resources to pull something like this off) taking an active role in facilitating the rebirth of e-Sports, thereby reinforcing its loyalty to its fans and followers. Again, great news, and thanks for posting this!

Well I think that if you really think you have what it takes to be part of this league, and if you are really serious about being a progamer, then the trip to Seoul is a good investment.

Man! I wish I could just travel back and forth from US to Korea... but! With the offline prelim's being in Seoul, it's basically meant for Koreans/people living in Korea only... =(


Not that I have a chance to even get into top 100,000! Lol

The registration link on their page is now live (left button of the three center ones): http://gsl.gomtv.com/teaser/main.gom

Foreigners CAN compete in this and you do not need a Korean battle.net account to play, just an account from somewhere. Obviously you still need to be physically at the qualifying tournament in Seoul on Aug 28th...

Not quite sure what they mean by 종족 (google translate = "tribe"), but everything else is straight forward.

종족 is tribe as in Random, Terran, Protoss, Zerg.
