do i understand that correctly?
there will be one big tournament with about 200'000$ cash prices
and a additional league system with about 400'000$ cash prices
opened for all players around the world
and all of this in the next 5 months?
It says that GOM TV will hold a tournament with 200,000$ prizes
and plans to give out 400,000$ more over the course of 2010. I am not exactly too sure
what they mean by that, but I speculate there will be lots of tournaments :D!

=O
thats how my face looks

$100,000 to first place in this tourney, and there's multiple tourneys like this over the rest of 2010, best players from these qualify for next year's global league... where even more money can be won! oh hells yes! :D
|
God I love Google translate... "-64 ~ Final Qualification under the river .."
Anyway, this came out okay: Tournaments are conducted every month in the given prize money of 100 million won for the winner and the second top four semi-finalists for the river and 4, respectively, given 30 million won and 10 million won.

Is this the return of Tasteless? I cant wait to watch this.
|
Well I think this will be the largest SC2 tourney for the near future.
Hope this will improve western esports, thank you Korea.
Goodbye MLG,ESL...

This is awesome, great start for the SC2 pro scene.
However I really do hope GOMTV manages to make it awesome for non-koreans as well, I'm just afraid we'll end up with a low quality stream with technical difficulties at every cast.
(Sort of like the old english GOTMV was, although it got better eventually.)
Hopefully it will turn out to be just awesome though

OMG! This is insane. If it is really 100k per month for each tournament, then we should see some super dedicated 24/7 progaming teams forming soon.

TASTELESS COMMENTARIES!! :D:D:D

That's 100k per month for first, 200k total prize pool for each tourney. They will probably do 3 total this year by the sounds of it. And then who knows what they're doing with the actual league they're starting next year, probably another $500k prize pool for that league  haha. But yes, Goodbye MLG and ESL! haha well maybe they have a place still for the people that aren't quite good enough to get into GOM Like me!

This is simply amazing! A real step for SC2 as an e-sport. I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
|
Tasteless is the commentator for English but i don't know the second one, maybe Artosis or even Superdanielman ??

MLG and ESL still do a lot of cool stuff. You gotta start small before you can reach this level of awesome.
|
Wholy shit... Thats insane and makes me super excited! :D
|
If Tasteless and Superdanielman both return to commentate the English stream together, I will die of excitement overload.
seriously... they were such a great team.
|
SuperDanielMan probably wont because he owns a PC Bang now. But it sounds like Tasteless is still working with GomTV based on the artosis interviews. Maybe they will have LilSusie again
|
engrish pweze.... i cant read the article

SC1 players may not be able to participate.
Oh you sneaky Blizzard this might actually work even for the koreans that hate you. Now this is advertisment in the right direction and trying to kill of BW at the same time.

i hope gom gets better korean commentators and really makes their events extraordinary. every effort must be made to draw in the broodwar audience, because if they can't break that market then it will be a lot more difficult to gain national recognition.
my fantasy is that day9 visits seoul to co-commentate the english stream with tasteless for at least one tourney :| with their talent+relationship the plott bros must have incredible chemistry casting
