Online Sports Championships (OSC) are happy to announce that one of the longest running franchises in esports get a big prize boost!

Started in Feb 2011, the OSC Masters Cup is a SC2 tournament run by members of the SEA community as a platform for players within the region to practice against each other in a competitive format, as well as global challenge versions to test vs the worlds best! There have been changes to format, eligibility, and frequency over the years (most recently, twice monthly + global), but it has always remained a constant staple of SC2, particularly in SEA, and a prestigious event to win!

We will be replicating the format used to celebrate Masters Cup #100 for these new $1000+ twice monthly editions!
Qualifiers + Invites > Groups > Playoffs.

One edition will be open globally, and the next WCS Circuit eligibility. Repeat.

YOU can add $1 to this editions prizepool for FREE with coupon code: MC112


The primary stream for this event will be OSCesports. We will showcase a mix of our regular and guest casters to provide 10 Masters Cup broadcasts per fortnight!

There will be some changes to other OSC events and the leagues schedule to accommodate 9 extra Masters Cup broadcasts per fortnight. All upcoming events can be found on the SC2Online calendar or here on Teamliquid.

Tiebreakers: Map score -> Head to head -> Map score against top 3 -> OSC Rankings

In this case, went to the last tie breaker!
