Ok this sounds super awesome, but the offline preliminaries in Seoul is going to exclude alot of people, even very very good people, who just cant afford the trip

Ok so its NOT worldwide and NOT easily accessible.

So looks like not such great news for western SC2 community.

PS. This is the end for BW in Korea.

Why are they calling it global tournament when it must be played in Seoul, therefore giving huge advantage to all koreans ? I guess that has to do more with the fact that koreans would rather watch other koreans...

Tbh it seems like to me they are just trying to lure people over with tons of hype and big $$$ signs, which is unfortunate if you follow games for the competitive aspect and seeing great players like flash or jaedong pull off amazing strats.

OOOOOOOH man... my heart stopped for a second. Can't wait for some good 'ol DaeHanMinGuk action with tasteless casting!

wonder what the pricing plan will be to view live. They've gotta be charging for this if they're putting up so much prize money.

This is Blizzard we're talking about, $500,000 is nothing to them. I'm sure advertisements/sponsors etc will cover most of it, and I can almost guarantee they will not charge a penny to the lie audience.

Why?... anyone know? Don't really care, just curious.


Probably because the games will be televised and casted, so they want the game to look pretty.


why cant just the observer have their settings to high? why do the players have to...

makes no sense.


Perhaps they want to do the players perspective thingy

Bahaha, "nationality doesn't matter". Yeah, you just happen to have to be in Korea at the right place at the right time for the offline prelims. Easy peasy for almost everyone, right?

At least IdrA & co. can participate, but that hardly makes it global.
Complete the cycle!

Yeah its in Korea, but maybe some teams have sponsors that would help foot the bill to get over there or maybe people can earn enough money in the Foreigner tournaments to pay their way to get over there. I'm hoping a good foreigner presence makes it.

Maybe they'll set up something with a US and EU partners do similar tournaments outside Seoul.


Also, I wonder if Idra will be allowed to participate in something like this or will his association with a progame team hinder him.
