I don't drink but all I hope for is no short term cancellations or cases of COVID. Replacements starting monday will be moving to regional / local from global. Also I just hope that the event doesn't run long/short. The team works hard and has a lot of load. I am the guy that has the SC2 experience but as you might know here SC2 matches are hard to impossible to predict and schedule especially since we have to fit sidecontent and commercials too. I don't want the team to be exhausted after 14 hour days. Ideally I would want to see 12-12, or a bit less. If we run 12-1 that is alright too. Its a really hard balance between satisfying our needs / partner needs and not killing the team and obviously talents/players. We plan to show like 8-10 matches but the groups will have overlaps. We do have several language streams, an online-english secondary coverage etc. Its impossible to show all of 8 man round robin groups and we hope people understand that. We will start one group and then the 2nd group will be started if we can make a judgement call on how long it approximately takes. Then its just fingers crossed that we do not have individual 45-60 minute maps. - naruto | ||

Most of the forfeit was due to health (Covid & Injury) and logistic (visa/passport/GSL schedule) reason, so I would say its mostly legitimate. CN is the only special case where SOMEONE has to qualify yet its not worth for the traveling. | ||

Good luck Naruto! Sounds reasonable, and the ones who don't qualify get to hang out at the best event of the year! | ||
