Do you think players will get free flights to the studio? What if they leave after every round? That would be a lot of flights! Will there be hotels provided? Will there be a studio audience. I'm really interested in how this will work out.
They get free flights from anywhere inside the region (so Koreans have to pay to fly to NA/EU and then they get a flight to the location of the studio). I think there are only 2 offline weekends. They are playing multiple rounds over the weekends. Maybe it was 3 weekends. dont remember 100%
it might be ro16 (group stage 2) 1 weekend and the bracket the 2nd weekend. or maybe the bracket split up over 2 weekends

Grats to TLO and Naniwa (though Nani whining is back). Looks like Europe is the foreigner hope now . . . if only they can knock out all of the Koreans Premier league I'll be a happy camper. When exactly that wasn't the case? I guess it depends how you look at it. In terms of number of players that can beat Koreans it has pretty much always been Europe but I'd say there were a few months that you could argue Huk as the best foreigner when he was winning a bunch of tournaments and made his ro8 in the gsl. So if your argument is best player individually there was a small time when it wasn't europe.
idra is the best player sorry you're mad if you think otherwise

Well, the R16 is a group stage. And they're played during the week.

ro16 isn't a weekend it's 2 games on each week during weekdays i think, but the ro8+ is a weekend tourney iirc

And for real, I love 2 base style, it's so sexy, (even more when Zerg does it though.. oh how I miss 2 hatch mutâ^^)
ALso it's more difficult to pull off because it requires a very good sense of timing, and strong build order

Flights, hotel, food is all provided for by Blizzard.

God forbid someone gets upset when he loses something that's important to him, I take it you've never watched or followed any professional athletes before?

I think flights are only provided if you live in that region? MVP for example needs to pay for his own flights.

Yeah clearly a professional athlete blames the imbalance when he loses . :D
The problem is not that he gets mad (it's human) it's that he feels the need to wrote "FUCK IMBA whatever" in chat implying that his opponent didn't deserve the win .

He needs to pay for a flight to somewhere in Europe (cheapest ticket) and then Blizzard pays for the rest of the way
so like for WCS America they only pay to fly to California or whatever and then Blizzard flies them to NY

I wonder how he'll ever be able to scramble enough money for the flight.

there is a fine line between trying to justify a total douchebag's rudeness and calling him beautiful minded.
and by fine line, i mean a huge fucking chasm, and such a thing is also between good logic and yours.
