Looks awesome!
Just a minor point, you may want to remove the $ sign before the amounts since in the heading you state it is TWD. Could be a bit misleading for someone glancing otherwise
|
The total prize pool (in USD) is $25,000.
|
I'm pretty sure that 1 of the invites is going to be San
Cool tournament though

Q. Players who fail to arrive for their scheduled matches will receive the loss of their first game 10 minutes after the match start time. Players will receive one loss for every additional 10 minutes they are late. The player will be considered forfeit if the player does not participate in any matches in that round of play.
And yes, unfortunately we will be only covering a single best of three for Saturday.

And when the Ro128 is finished, we will shut down the stream. We want to make sure that everything is safely in order with this program. The Ro64 and Ro32 will be taken care of on Sunday.

Those are some pretty sick sign ups.
Should be good

Stacked line-up! Jinair and Samsung are out in full force. Only need 2~3 Bo3s to make it past stage 1 (top 16 qualifies for stage 2), hope some foreigners make it.

Quite a few KeSPA pros only play the ladder on barcode accounts, and thus their accounts that have their real names on them are not in master's league even though they have achieved GM in previous seasons.
