What do they play at the PC bangs then? There still was a decent amount of people who is in the camera view at IEM. GSL finals have a lot more audience, but the intel audience in Guangzhou fills a small auditorium quite nicely.

I want to know when the IEM semifinals starts too. I hope the Gracken beats PuMa.

EDIT: I think it starts at 7 pm PST

EDIT 2: Gracken vs PuMa at 8:40 pm PST

Carmac is right, SC2 is not doing well in China.

SC2 May 2011 stat posted by "some guy in a forum", I am just reposting it. I repeat these are NOT VERIFIED!

+ Show Spoiler +
Total: 2,960,649,
CN: 192,540,
RU: 99,117,
TW: 139,606,
SEA: 127,982,
EU: 810,811,
KR: 496,572,
NA: 1,041,494,
LA: 52,527
source: http://bbs.game.163.com/thread-168108159-1-1.html

Note: these number are the maximum number of players on ladder. If you look at China it might not seem that bad at first, but the problem is, most(all?) of the 192,540 ppl playing are on 1 Month Pass. ATM forums are reporting the Chinese server as "ghost servers".

edit: Some SC2 players are blaming the situation on the Chinese media and Blizz. The media in China is not exactly on SC2's side, every now and then, the main sites will write an article about how "sc2 failed, gonna fail, horrible imba, etc etc". As for the Blizz blame...I don't want to start a xx vs xx2 war...

But there is a piece of good news. Plu.cn(biggest sc/sc2 site in china) manage to get the broadcast right for WCG. Their caster has a huge cult following like tastosis. This will bring many BW viewers to sc2.

Idra and Elfi in a final. This tournament is far from stacked like a Dreamhack/MLG/TSL but still good to see I guess.
Thorzain, MMA, Moon & Nerchio. Also, I hate protoss.

IdrA's performance here may actually be the deciding point we look back at in 10 years and say, this is when Greg Fields grew up, learned to handle his emotions and showed his capability. Really impressed!
