One of these does not belong...
agreed

no free SQ stream

To be honest I think it would have been better if they did 4 groups of 6. There's certainly enough players they could invite, just add:
Terran: Bomber, PuMa, Polt, *insert one of GanZi/Taeja/Ryung* Protoss: Alicia, Puzzle, HongUn, HerO Zerg: CoCa, Leenock, FruitDealer, LosirA
Then have the top TWO from each group advance.

I want Trickster to win this now, just to see everyone here eat their TL shirts. Including me.

Drewbie isn't even on the radar in Korea. Why would he be invited? 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. 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 +(
Switzerland prices o_O ?! In Sweden you can get a pizza for 7 $ in some places, and a fast food meal for 8-10 depending on size. 5 seems a bit low, depending on your definition of "a meal" (no, a single hot dog and a soda is not a meal ^_^)
I never bought a single ticket until the ongoing GSTL was announced. And after buying that, the 10 $ for GSL August seemed like a drop in the ocean, will probably continue to buy every season ticket from now on. Including this one. Go GSL!

Oh well, just replace LosirA with someone like Zenio or even a TeamLeague star like BboongBboong.

This is pretty cool. I would have liked to see NaDa in this "arena of legends", but I'm guessing he was busy. I guess TricKsteR will have to do. 
I would also like to note that group A is the group of death. Anyone agree?
|
Hope NaNiwa can challange the better koreans this time.
|
This will be the first time MC has faced off against Nestea this year. I'm predicting Nestea to destroy MC.
|
I wonder if we'll see a tiebreaker in group A. MC 2 - 0 MMA MMA 2 - 0 Nestea Nestea 2- 0 MC
Is actually a pretty likely scenario.
|
They are mad if they hope i'll pay to don't see NaDa !
|
Can't wait to watch this, because I'd say that it's well worth the $5 to watch the likes of MVP, NesTea, MC, Losira, MMA, DRG and MKP play.
I don't know why people are whining about this, it's not as if GOM is about to slap a mandatory ticket purchase on every event, and after providing the WC stream + VoD's for free, it seems unfair to attack them for this.
|
So when they say new tournament does that mean it will occur monthly or w/e like the GSL? or is this the only one? Damn Korea sure has tournaments now, the weekly, AoL, GSL, GSTL.

Ahahahaha ahaha ah. That was pretty funny. If it's the opening match I guess there is a chance, but if MMA needs that match to advance he'll 1-1-1 his way to the top.

Artosis has been hyping up NaNiwa pretty hard lately saying that given another month NaNiwa is going to break out and dominate people. I hope NaNiwa can show us some of those early steps in this tournament. Artosis hasn't been that wrong in the past either.. Clide was really strong until other people caught up, same with Alicia. PuMa recently has been pretty dominate.
|
NO! I was going to stop watching GSL to focus school (sent 11 AM for me), but why you do this?  Where should my time go....

Is actually a pretty likely scenario. That's not a very likely scenario :o
With the way MC has been doing lately and TvP being what it is I'm not evne sure he is the favourite in that MU. Much less a clear 2-0.
And Nestea losing 2-0? Sure it's ZvT but Nestea is still the best sc2 player in the world right now. I don't care if he does have a weak MU, he's still the favourite against anyone but MVP, his cryptonite.
EDIT: Nestea should beat MC 2-0 though, unless MC can pull out something spectacular.

Once it said "premium members only" i disregarded this, ill just check the results page thats more than satisfying enough. are you so poor that you can't pay 5$ or what?
Probably young and doesn't have a source of income.
