2 Groups of 4. Everyone faces everyone in BO3
Top player from Group 1 plays 2nd player from Group 2, and vice versa.
Winners of these 2 games play final, losers play bronze-match.

Players - We will once again invite US and EU players to this tournaments. Koreans will not be invited due to the impossibility of playing a tournament live across so many timezones.
Here's an idea : Don't invite US players and then get Koreans + Eu. Way better. Am i right ? No you are not right.

I wonder if there will be any top korean players.

another idea: just ask koreans whether they want to be invited, under the condition that they agree to play at a time which might not be benefitial to them, because it is the most convenient time for most of the audience. (edit: also under the condition that matches are played on the NA server, according to several players in and out of Korea, that seemed to be the best solution for minimal lag).
for a tournament with this prize money, I bet most are willing to adjust their sleeping schedule for a couple of days. and some Koreans can still be above par even if they are sleep deprived.
