This sounds like a cool tournement, and the fact that it costs 5 bucks doesnt really bother me at all.
Actually in my opinion, this is maybe just what some of us needed to get interested into GOM again. I bought the 3 first season tickets, but has since then not been watching alot of GOM, mostly due to lack of time and my interest in SC2 has declined a bit. With this tournement since there arent that many games, I think I will try to watch them all, and the playerpool and racial balance is also really nice.
You will get my moneys GOM, because you have earned them and Im glad you continue to promote esports !

I think tester in the list showing a much bigger problem, there are just not enough "stars" for protoss, stars not in only terms of achievement but in terms of entertaining values, seems to be a problem with the race in general?
in my opinion, it's a bit embarrassing for Korean protosses than they had to invite Huk (best result in GSL being Ro8) and Naniwa (who cannot ever pass one round in Code A), not saying that these two players do not deserve the it, just saying that it's seems extremely difficult to find korean protoss "all-star" What has MMA done in his GSL career? I seem to recall him dropping out of Code A first round too, It's obviously something for the fans, showcasing popular players. Of course, we can't just enjoy the tournament, of course not. We have to question everything. RAH RAH RUINING E-SPORTS uhh.. he got SECOND in the GSL SUPER TOURNAMENT. ermmm.. he won MLG? He saved Slayers' ass lotsa times? and he is one of the handsome nerd out there?
Well in that case, Naniwa has one of those under his belt too.
And HuK has a tiny little Dreamhack win. Oh, and Homestory Cup.
My original point stands. They are all as qualified as each other, barring maybe Seo Ki Soo. Maybe.

TvPvZ in each group, sick line-up, very promising stuff!
I really hope the players will deliver their best games despite the very low prize pool.

Damn, having bought every GSL event is kind of a harsh criteria.
I bought every one of them except one or two early GSTL's because the format there was kind of a joke (just 8 team fighting in an elimination bracket). :-/

It's only five dollars for all these great players that you normally don't see playing against each other that often, so I don't really see the problem. If you have bought everything up til now, it's just a little bonus, but not getting it for free shouldn't stop anyone that's interested.

Nice ^_^
<3 GOM
Edit: yeah why no NaDa

No free stream

They invited HuK and Naniwa because a lot of foreign players want to see them, and MC is basically the only REALLY popular Protoss in Korea (nvm that SC2 in general isn't exactly super popular in Korea anyway). Makes perfect sense, even though I'd rather see someone like Puzzle and Sage rather than Naniwa and Trickster myself.

I love amount of biased people here sometimes.. Im really curious how come you people draw conclusions that Naniwa is better in any way then Tester, even with all of his slacks lately, he have way more sucsess then Naniwa, and he beat 10 x times better players in his carrier..

Wow, I'd love to see it but I'm not spending $5..
|
So this is the first ever SC2 pay-per-view event?
I will not buy this as I can watch HQ to top notch games, for free and I get like 50hours of that content daily.

this is not a prestigious tournament, winner only gets like 2k.
how does that make it less prestigious? the competition is so big that it makes the tournament prestigious.

Awesome! Will definitely be checking this out 
But I must say... Tester is pretty bad these days... Doesn't really deserve to be there over others.

Now this is what I'm talking about.
