Drewbie is solid but he is not a legend, not even in the foreign scene. There are very few, and even those who could be called legends are all done so 'arguably' or 'relatively speaking.' Drewbie definitely doesn't belong on this.

As a special present we will issue the premium ticket for free to all our loyal supporters who have bought every season ticket since Open Season 1 until now (including GSL October)
No free stream available is pretty lame tbh. I had been GomTV fan for a long time, I have watched all their content (GSL, GSTL, WC, Code A Quailfier, Yellow) through free stream and I wish they would make this one free as well. I just feel that this has to be free.

Just a little update for all those people who don't follow gomtv on twitter.
Currently it's not confirmed which casters will cover the Arena of Legends tournament.
Maybe i'm a big pessimist, but why do they even need to think about who should be casting this unless there is the possibility that doa/moletrap will be the casters.

I agree, it is nice they are gifting the stream to their very loyal customers, and even though this event is only five dollars, the content should be free, beleive it or not just "payment" alone is a huge barrier to the amount of viewers they could get, and in the end viewers attract sponsors. But really they aren't in desperate searches of sponsors so maybe they are just using the event to gauge reaction and turnout.

Don't feed the troll....
Btw, anyone on TL (i.e. has roof, internet, electricity, water, probably educated, etc.) who is allegedly a fan of great SC2 but so cheap they cannot fork out $5 should go fly a kite. It costs a nice meal in certain places (Asia due to currency exchange) or a crap meal in others (particularly Europe due to exchange rate again).
If you think its the 'principle' of the matter (hence not gonna pay), then bitch only when it becomes some exhorbitant $50 or something.
The free low quality stream will probably be available for sometime as they need to continually try and build the fan base (younger kids growing up and the incoming windfall from HOTS etc.) but they definitely do not need to make everything free. More money going into the scene will lead to more talent going into the scene (casters, production, players, etc.). It's simple economics.

Group A: Nestea and MMA advance, Group B: Losira and MKP, Group C: DRG and MVP  , Group D: July and Nani .
MMA v Nestea is going to be a really good series.

WOW...this is great! I really can't wait to check it out. All my favorite players in those groups..how can i pick a side :<<
|
I don't understand why Trickster is in there, but oh well...
HuK's group is really tough, BUT both MVP and DRG's worst MU is against Protoss, so maybe he will have a chance... That is if the new patch is out by then... Otherwise the continued failure of all Protoss will be continued in this tournament...
|
And I don't understand why Naniwa is in there.
|
Can someone tell me if koreans have to pay for this aswell?

Koreans get all GSL stuff free.

im in. first tournament im paying, seems this is gonna be huge ^^
|
The player list for this is definitely sick, Im kinda iffy on the format though. Bo3 with groups of 3 top player advances? Seems a bit weird and anti climatic. Still pumped to see some great games though.
|
I guess there are a lot of terrans available. I'd switch out MMA for NaDa, but MMA is a fine choice--better than Tester, IMO. I wholeheartedly support the even number race slots, however.

Where are you buying meals for 5 bucks in Europe? I went out to dinner last week at one of the cheapest places in town. 35 dollars each. And now I can't afford said 5 dollars +(
