|
Thats some good news for us danish people!

as an employee of CM Storm, I will be more than happy to cast this in English.
EDIT: Also it is very important to let cooler master / CM Storm know that they are appreciated, especially in this particular instance. It is important to let the sponsor of ANY event know they are appreciated, but this is certainly no exception.

Are you casting from the venue or are you providing a community stream?

Price distribution should indeed be top 8, but nice to have a big tournament in Denmark :D
|
I assume the tournament format is two group stages and single elimination playoffs. Is this correct?
Also, I didn't find the rules. Have they been released yet?
|
Signups are closed for sc2? Cant select it from the drop down, when signing up.
|
epic! cant wait

gogo elfi!

Copenhagen Games becomes a WCS global event:
WCS Global Events – Tier 3 – 1800 points
1st 300 points
2nd 200 points
3rd – 4th 150 points
5th – 8th 100 points
9th – 16th 75 points
This means that we will have an increase in prize purse and it will now be a total sum of $10.000.
At the same time, we are pleased to announce that renowned casters Thomas “Khaldor” Kilian and John “JoRoSar” Sargent will spearhead the broadcast. They will orchestrate the stream directly from Copenhagen and will bring the WCS action to spectators on the live stream and on site on the CoolerMaster SC2 stage.
The new prize pool of $10000 is roughly €7200.
It's great that this tournament gets the WCS status, the Tier 3 Global Event requirements are met easily.
