as interesting as female football. The Women's World Cup this summer was awesome. GO TEAM USA! I think this will be lots of fun. In a world today where there are twenty thousand SC2 tournaments and it has become over saturated with the same thing over and over again, I'm excited to see something new. No, it won't be the GSL or MLG, but it'll be fun and something different from the norm. I am looking forward to seeing what the ladies can bring to the table. If it won't be as good as MLG, why is the prize the same..? /devil'sadvocate
Because that's what the sponsors wanted the prize pool to be? You can't correlate skill/competition into prize money. If that was the case, any tournament not having a bunch of Koreans shouldn't have a large prize pool.
Also, it's the first time doing something entirely new. Could it suck? Yeah, it could be awful; the games could be an embarrassment, the tournament production could be terrible, and everyone can hate on it, but at least give it a chance first. If you come into the games looking for something fun, and maybe a bit of skill, you'll more than likely enjoy it. If you watch this tournament and go, 'WHAT THE HELL? WHY ISN'T THIS GIRL AS GOOD AS NESTEA? WHAT THE FUCK. WHY IS THERE $5,000 FOR THE WINNER?, then you'll be sorely disappointed and shouldn't watch to begin with.
But I know you're just playing devil's advocate, so I'm not talking directly to you. I really don't see this tournament that much different than the first TSL where TeamLiquid didn't allow any Koreans. Was it the highest level of games in the world? No, but it was lots of fun, had a lot of new people get interested in the foreign scene, and showed some great games in their own right.

The Swedish girl doesn't look very Swedish to me. Very asian in fact. But she has a Swedish name. Earth is a confusing place sometimes.

I might be retarded but I didn't see it in the OP.
Who is casting?
How come Megumi isn't in this tournament, isn't she pretty good?
Whelp, I'm going to pass out now anyway so guess it doesn't matter.
