I have to say I'd still love to see a Danish map used in the danes-only tourney.

For example there are two Danish maps in the top 5 of Februarys Map of the Month: TPW The Grid & TPW Rusty Cage.

Sure I'm biased as a map maker, but I still think it would be awesome

Think it was organized a bit badly and that's why the players are a bit lacking compared to other major tournaments.

Also, what the hell is with the map pool? No Tal'Darim Altar but you do pick Dual Sight and Bel'shir Beach? It's like you WANT bad maps.

Please don't comment on the maps when you have no clue what you're talking about. Tal'darim is only good for 1 matchup, TvT and decent for another one, PvT. It's horrible for anything else than that.

Dual Sight isn't in the mappool, but replaced by one of the new maps that IPL uses as well.

Edit: Bel'Shir is a lot better than Tal'darim. It only suffers in PvP and it's a little Zerg favored, but not as much as Tal'darim is favored to Protoss/Terran.

I'd argue that if you ask any pro-gamer then this is a very good and balanced mappool.

Edit2: Just asked a Zerg and a Protoss pro-gamer:

Zerg: "Tal'darim is the worst map that is still being used. I like this mappool"
Protoss: "Actually this is a great mappool haha"

I am really looking forward to the event. Although the line-up is not the best I would like to mention it is the same weekend as IPL. Since Copenhagen Games has been held every Easter there is not much to do about that fact.

Anyways see you guys there! .)

So far it looks like the winner will be either from Team Empire or from Team Acer.

Lineup is a bit weak compared to last year due to clash with IPL4. Still alot of great players and talent around

Looking forward to it. And just saw the caster at IEM, he's pretty good

If stream time isn't too much simultaniously with IPL I think the community might get their eyes up for this great tournament

I've got a feeling this event will be the perfect chance for a lesser known player to get the gold and develop some fame!

Really nice to see Sanshorn Mists in there, but it's not an IPL map it's a ESV map.

Perhaps it would be an idea to submit the event to the TL calendar, so people can see the stream visible from TL.net?

Schedule:
All times written is in GMT+1

A quick note about this: Europe switches to daylight saving time on Sunday, March 25. So by the time this event will go down, quoted times will likely be Central European Summer Time (CEST) which correctly is GMT+2 (instead of CET which is GMT+1). Incidently, British Summer Time (BST) will be GMT+1 then. And since North America switched to daylight saving time already on the first Sunday in March, the time difference between EDT and CEST will be back to the normal 6 hours.

Couldn't they choose another date for their tournament? IPL4 and The Gathering are at the same weekend and both have better lineups and bigger prizepools.
