Anyone know when exactly the tournament is going to start and end? I want to be there for only one day... try reading the op? I did. Nowhere does it actually say when the tournament starts.

It does say exactly when it starts Well since I'm a complete fucking moron with no reading skills, why don't you copy and paste it for me so that incompetent people (like myself) can get the same amount of knowledge you amazing people have?
Dates: 18th-20th of June. The first set of groups start at 10.00 CET on the 18th. The Grand Final will be played at 18.30 Monday 20th of June 2011

Thanks guys, appreciate those who helps  .
Edit: sorry, do we know when each player is going to be playing (like MarinekingPrime)?

Apollo is the worst caster ever but either way this event is going to be amazing!!

So if MKP gets to the finals of the Super Tournament he doesn't go?
What if MKP gets to the finals of the LG Special League?
They both are on June 18th.

This might've already been answered but... "srs Sushi - Zerg (Selected by DH partner in Benelux.)" Who's the partner in Benelux? Why does that particular partner have the right to an invite? Just curious.
*edit*
Never mind, found the answer:

Maybe we see black horse  He might not be a top player in the likes of the rest of the lineup, but he did win our Benelux Qualifier and last Winter one of our Qualifier winners ended up in the top 8 of DHW2010 SC2 tournament. However, seeing Orly's past performances he might surprise. If he gets through the BYOC that is.

I'm wonder the same thing. I hope they replace him with another notable Korean (Maybe MMA since MKP will crush him ~~)

I guess MKP will withdraw if he makes the Super Tournament Final. DreamHack contingency plan loser of MMA vs MKP goes to DreamHack Summer
That would be sweet.
It's a win-win situation for both MKP/MMA
And for the fans as well :-D

Top eu countrys in sc2: Sweden, Ukraine, Poland, Germany.
Invites: sweden -8, ukraine-4, germany-3, poland-1
even france got 2 slots!
Tarson 2x 4th place at IEM and IEM World, including 3-0 Socke etc, nr.1 in go4sc2 all time ranking for 2-3 months in row, wining many cups in eu, and pwn all Polish cups
Who you got: Sase won nothing. TLO won nothing. Grubby won nothing. Machine - is joke. Bischu - is joke. Huk - n/c. TT1 - n/c. Sushi - wtf? Demuslim and Morrow - invited cause of names.
50% invites are by names not by skill. I mean how many times u can watch TLO,Machine etc 1-4 or 0-5 in groups?
Perhaps you should considering actually checking things before writing a flame post?
Bischu wasn't invited, he qualified through a tournament. Morrow is possibly the best European zerg. You talk about people who "won nothing" but Tarson doesn't even have a single top 3 placement in any major tournament, ever.
Sushi wasn't invited either, he won a qualifier. Perhaps the people you think should be invited should have won some qualifiers instead of for example Bischu or Sushi? Nerchio participated in the same qualifier as Bischu but lost. How is that anyones elses fault? Yet you whine on Bischu being in the tournament but Nerchio isn't? Are you trying to say that the organizers should somehow ignore the results of the qualifier and let Nerchio play instead of Bischu despite him losing out early?
Nerchio should possibly get an invite though despite not even being able to qualify, as he has been doing alright in some lesser online cups lately so it would be interesting to see him on LAN. However, you don't even know if he applied for an invite.
I wouldn't really call Poland a top country in Starcraft though, more like a mid-tier one. Check the top 25 players in terms of prize money.
Korea: 16 players
Sweden: 5 players
Ukraine: 1 player
Canada: 1 player
USA: 1 player
Finland: 1 player
Even if you go as far as checking the entire top 50 Poland doesn't have a single player there. Which means they have done pretty much nothing in the major tournaments.

I disagree paladia, and didnt bischu get autoberth to the final of the coinlfip to lose to socke? :D I dont think thats very impressive  , and you cant blame nerchio for losing in a coinflip? :D but I might be wrong in that one.
Poland is _definately_ a top tier sc country :D come on, Tarson, Nerchio, Paranoid, DieStar & Mana, thats a line-up that can pretty much take out anyone, and then you still got good players like Slider, Funkay etc etc, if sweden plays 10 times vs Poland they might win 6 or 7 but not more than that

Nerchio lost, else he would have qualified, who can you blame that on except him?
You are not a top country unless you have top results. What can you go by except results? If they indeed were a top country, why don't they have top results?
Some people seem to have their own idea of who is the best, many think for example that Spanishiwa is one of the worlds best players, even though he hasn't accomplished anything in terms of results.
And Morrow, less forums, more practice. Also, has Thorzain been invited to your house?

I completely agree with you my friend
Although I would prefer if he finally won his first GSL title then to go to Dreamhack. I think he will suddenly get a lot more invites to foreign tourneys as GSL champion ^^

The only thing Polish players have won is weekly cups no one cares about. They aren't invited because they've not proven they're good enough.

You could say the same thing about Demuslim

Except I am well aware that Demuslim has achieved nothing and that the UK has no top players. I'd never try and argue otherwise, unlike so many of the Swedes/Poles/Germans etc... on Team Liquid I have no blind nationalism towards my country.

Nerchio has definitely won enough to be proven good enough. He won that Dailymotion ESL cup with 5000$ price money and a lot of smaller weekly cups.
