The remaining map is played last.

Is it even worth having this in stages when only 2 players can advance? :S

Anyways, looking forward to what Koreans play in this~

Only 2 players get to the IEM, so I wonder why this is the only qualifier with 2 stages.

Really? Are the stages for those played on the same day then? EU is the only one listed as 2 events on the page.

That's true, based messioso, I just assumed stages wouldn't be more than 2 days away from each other .

Really? I think that might be a chance for europeans then =P , I think the 8 invited players in stage 2 will be:

Fantasy
ForGG
Bunny
Snute
Showtime
TLO
True
Harstem

(Atleast if Dpix is the only team to fly their players to qualifiers, otherwise there'll be more koreans)
