Questions I assume will be asked
- Wow, this is really soon. Why are you announcing so late?
We were committed to the date, but couldn't finalize some of the details until Blizzcon weekend. Sorry for the short notice!
- Will this conflict with TB's SanDisk Invitational?
Nope (Unless they bring back Swarmhosts as a thing). We've been talking to them to try to avoid a conflict as much as possible.
- Is this LOTV?
Yes
- How were the teams decided? When will we know them?
All players were asked to fill out a form indicating players they'd Like and Dislike to play with. Once everyone has filled it out, teams will be announced within 24 hours.

Looking forward to this, especially seeing Trump and Strifecro get back in the saddle. +1 for a good ol' swarm host joke, too.
|
Destiny/Catz is confirmed on their streams.

Lol steph violet, the irony

Stephano/Violet and Incontrol/Huk are stupidly strong teams, I can't see the finals being between any other teams but those two.
Stephano is just kind of never not decent, and Incontrol still actively ladders and is high GM, so those teams have a huge advantage.

The problem was both Stephano and Incontrol were always going to create teams with an advantage. There is no pro who you could pair them with that would compensate the fact that they're both still good players. Unless you wanted to switch the two so they have to offrace

I think if Destiny and ended up with Hyun that'd be a strong team too.

Sheth, why?  I was looking forward to seeing him play again!
Shethboarders unite!

Can't wait to see Trump play. Well, get rekt by an archon that seems a bit broken
|
One questions, will there be POV streams? Generally atleast Destiny tries to stream his POV with this stuff, any information?
