Super excited!! I wonder how the invite list was determined, can anybody tell? It's a great lineup, I'm just curious since there's no obvious pattern to that list that I can see

If I had to guess they wanted at least one person from each region, and invited top players from each region until someone said yes?

Maybe Kelazhur got the nod from Americas because he lives in Europe.

As a Bulgarian whose mother was born in Stara Zagora, and having grown up there, this is super exciting to see.

The prize pool is equivalent to a GSL. Explains some of the big names attending! Reynor and Clem in Bulgaria for a SC2 tournament is wild.

Livin' this life like it was written.

Reminder that this is coming up on Sept 5 (meet and greets for live audience starts on 4th, but actual competition starts on 5th), and the roster has filled out pretty nicely.

Clem vs Reynor revenge match?

Looking at the brackets looks like a reynor Clem final

Hopefully they can put on another clinic like they did at WTL. The rage table smash from Clem was pretty entertaining and unexpected
