I thought IEM's would be tier 1 tournaments? Do they not meet a requirement or something?

Tier 1 events need 75.000$ prize pool and other stuff, there is are almost no tournaments that can furfill that.

That really narrows it down... Dreamhacks and MLGs now a puny tier 2, feels weird.

For now I think Katowice and that planned Korean tournament?


I don't think Katowice counts as a Tier 1 either because of the way of which you get to play at the tournament

25% of Top 16 players need to be open to global audience. With three region free online qualifier and 2 open bracket spots they meet that requirement.

god I love this heavy observer style, it is so fucking smart and solid


I think Polt expects it, though... interview yesterday he talked about playing with the assumption that the Protoss knows where his army is at all times through using many observers, since he can't kill them all. So he plays such that it doesn't matter, the Protoss still gets pulled multiple directions.

That's some top shelf Polt right there.
Yes, I email sponsors... to thank them. Don't post drunk, kids. My king, what has become of you?

Not really, this years Tier 2 is the same as last years Tier 1. They just wanted to create a category for extremely big tournaments.

I don't really think the supply count is so macro-indicative against a race who can warp as much troops as they have gate instantly.
I mean Rain could get 30+ supplies in a sec.
