Players take it in turn removing maps until only 3 maps remain in a best of 3. Then each player picks a map. Maps are played in order they are picked. The remaining map is played last.

Links are fixed, thanks for pointing.
China Stage 1 will qualify 4 players.
Asia Stage 2 will be composed of 4 Chinese Stage 1 + 4 SEA Stage 1 + 4 KRTW Stage 1 + 4 Seeded players.
It is a bit different and smaller than NY format since KRTW Stage 2 had more value than Asia Stage 3 for New York.

Only 1 qualifier for KRTW (will be announced later today).
You are right, no invited players in Stage1. Only 4 Asian seeded players for Stage 2.

I think links are still wrong, should be : http://www.esl-asia.net/cn/sc2/masters/br_14_stage1/ (cn in the url and not asia for the China qualifier)

oh! sorry, there are so many IEM threads at the moment and with AM Online, I thought you were talking about it
I don't think there will be an English stream, it's already a big surprise that they talk about the Chinese Qualifier on TL

The Chinese qualifier is open for casting as there is no English stream for it at the moment.

It'll be a tough fight, but I hope Jim or MacSed makes it to Sao Paulo.
(Also I'm glad XluoS or XY didn't make it)
