Hum, so 11 teams...I guess its all the ones from the other CTC (except P1 and Ocean Gaming) + DPG right? Are any other teams on the horizon?

Cool tournament btw. Really important that these players have some off season tournaments so they can keep up with their adversaries and have some extra money.

Ah damn...I had high hopes for that new Black Night squad...I thought they could evolve a ton their 15 year old players and stuff.

Alpha X...nice nice, so Astrea, BreakingGG and maybe *wink wink* DRGling (judging by is battletag in kr ladder)?? Or MaSa if he doesn't lag horribly

I will say about the thing whether Sakura could participate in CTC2020S1.

I don't know whether Pengwin could see the message.

I just say the fact that in a tournament (Chinese CSL 2019), Sakura won his “apprentice”, 星空凛 (the ID is about a Japanese animated character, his match of the qualifier of WESG 2018 - 2019: https://v.youku.com/v_show/id_XMzc3MzMyMDQ0NA==.html, a Terran player. Then, he abandoned and 星空凛 "won" the match. Netease has decided to inquire into the thing.
I love SC2

I am only sure that "the teams are true!" Astrea could be instead of other players from Alpha X. Rangarok might be replaced by SoO.

How would Has fit into this picture? He's not on a CTC team and partnerships weren't allowed in the past. Also not the teams don't get even amounts of players into the tournament either?

Sounds so weird it has to be true.
