So what is up with this tournament? How many players are participating? Is there a bracket? And when will the games be played?

There is no schedule, and there is no designated stream. LUL Why even fly Tastless and Artosis over there when nobody is going to watch it because nobody knows when the event will happen and nobody knows what stream it will be played on. | ||

I don't think there were that many applications, I don't know exactly how it panned out but Reynor's father said that he even had to pressure Vasa to go lol. Maybe since it's the 2v2 and the WCG shtick is national teams, my guess is they wanted an italian to team up with Riccardo, but nobody applied. :D And according to Reynor's facebook, they will play at 02:00 GMT (+00:00) against Cyan's team | ||

Not only that, it's an invitational tournament; the prize would still be obscenely high for only four players, but no qualifiers actually makes it ridicolous(Thus said, go Reynor!!). Also, while Neeb is the best american players and Maru most likely was the best korean when it was announced, why Cyan and no TIME? I can almost justify inviting Reynor and not Serral, even if a couple of losses can't obscure the fact the latter is still the best player in WCS(and possibly the best in the world). | ||

According to Xiaose, originally they invited TIME, but after hearing that it's an invitational tournament with 2v2 exhibition games with fans, TIME gave up his spot and was replaced by Cyan.

Saw Neeb beat Maru 2-1 (only saw the 3rd game). Maru tried to go for the mech style he showed on thundebird already in GSL, and Neeb just busted him early on before defenses hit critical mass. | ||
