I feel like it will be hard to attract SC2 people to the event due to the fact that it is only the one match

It is a great idea though and im looking forward to the finals!!

Single match Starcraft events are pretty common in Korea and have been for years. It's not that odd for a finals.

Can't wait to cast this!

edit: oh yeah... there might be a little more SC2 action there anyway.
I cast, therefore I am.

Well... it's only $18.75 if you do the coupon offer... and also there will be a showmatch after the Grand Finals. I'm sure there are a lot of people who wish they lived in the area so that they could go easily.

You're crazy. This is awesome for people who can go. It's just like going to a major sporting event. 2-3 hours of concentrated entertainment with everything on the line.

And Team league finals pretty much always deliver (GSTL, IPL TAC 2 etc.)
