He is KT.PenguiN now. It is said he stayed at the clan of Prime "once upon a time".

KT.Miso, Axiom.Heart and BoracayPrime must play in the Korea Qualifiers. must!
|
Gogo bunny, snute or mlord.
|
go Nerchio, the foreign hope in CS:GO
|
yet again Snute refuses to scout and loses to a 2-base allin from Terran
|
|
MLorD did a great job at abusing Snute's lack of scout. The smarter won.
|
Snute might have got a big blow from the defeat against Cure yesterday. Anyway, Cure is ranked 3rd in TvZ according to Aligulac. 1st is Maru, 2nd is Innovation.
|
Oh MarineLorD... That's what I'd call a hold-up.

Neat play by Bunny against Nerchio.

Kane has been playing for who knows long, it's 7AM and he's playing on NA Server from EU. Losing under these conditions to a Protoss player (on catallena on top) is more than okay.

I live in Australia and I just signed up for the SEA qualifiers, but I want to settle some things. The info says it will be played on Korean server but then later on it says "All qualifier games are to be played on their respective region/server.". So dosent that mean the games in my qualifier will be played on the SEA server? Also in terms of eligibility, I meet the requirements. I am a citizen of a country in SEA and I am in Diamond league. BUT I am Diamond league on the NA server, will I still be able to participate as I presume games will be played on SEA (where I am not Diamond). Would appreciate if someone would answer my 2 questions.
Thanks

Bunny VS Bunny in the main event ?

Also you should be ok to play in the qualifier as long as you can prove you have a Diamond league account somewhere, it is flexible.

Good to see Naniwa back in action. He is the best foreigner to touch this game after Jinro retired. I still remember when he qualified for premier after months of not playing sc2 at all. That's some true talent right there. He needs to go back to Korea and get into GSL. I can see him making consecutive round of 8 again. He's that good. And he qualified for one of the most difficult non Korean tournament of all time. Naniwa is a foreigner that nobody can match right now.

China Qualifier will start after 10 hours. 4 of 16 players from GPL 2015 Season 1/Qualifier will be qualified and this is independent of GPL/WCS.

The Main Event of Kung Fu Cup will be after WCS Season 1. It will held after April 5 at least.
