I hope that qualifiers are able to be held somewhere that Aus and NZ players can actually get to without travel costs becoming prohibitive. | ||

Also, what's cool about this is that not necessarily pro names dominate battle.net. Progamers tend to practice strategies through custom games and mechanics on battle.net, building specific build orders so that they are prepared for a long series of games against a single opponent. Battle.net, on the other hand is more like the team league - one off games where u can pull anything against anyone and have a chance of succeeding. So IMMVP might be the best player in tournaments, but its overall solid play and constant thinking on the feet for National Battle.net Champs. SICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love it! | ||

Where Blizzard would just announce a format ex. "1on1 Lost Temple" "1on1 orc only Plunder Isle" or similar... then a best of 8 games was played between all who entered and then a ro.16 would be held... In this way it would be easy to make tournaments for all levels of gamers. "Bronze league tournament tonight at 20:00, map is Metalopolis" Rewards could just be more icons, or just ladder points.... Something like that... It could be incorporated sooo easily! I just thought of this as I saw the world tourney sc2... :D | ||

Blizzard hosts this event in South Korea Shortly after the event ends we see a HUGE AMOUNT of top players switch over from Brood War to Starcraft II! ^_^ I really really hope wherever Blizzard decides to host this event they pull out all the stops and promote the shit out of it so that maybe, maybe Korea will understand ESPORTS MATTERS? | ||

 quick question though. why do stephano, socke, levin, fenix, killer and comm get direct seeds to the world finals after winning their nationals wheras players who won their nationals in other countries do not get a direct seed? i.e. UK, sweden and poland have arguably better sc2 players than france. yet the french national winner got a direct seed instead of having to participate in the continental finalsone other thing, if stephano has a direct seed after winning the french nationals, why does he even attend the european continental tournament? thanks very much | ||

I'm going to get tickets to the European finals here in Stockholm and I've heard they will be released tomorrow. I guess Stephano would attend for the prize money? I don't know how the seed system works. Seems a bit odd that some countries gets direct seeds to world finals while Sweden with quite a few top-tier players didn't get any. | ||

When I click on Asia it's mostly players from non Korean countries. Where are MC, MVP, DRG, etc.? they didn't manage to qualify through the koreans nationals mvp and mc dropped out of the qualifiers because they forfeited after losing their winners round match to attend IEM cologne a really interesting question would be: why in hell does NA get 7 seeds and europe/asia only 6? that makes like now sense at all tbh... | ||
