Wait... the entire code A ro32 will take place on a single day? This is madness! :o
Overstacking the schedule with so many tournaments, the GSL sure is eager to hand out money. :D

can someone please explan to me if we will get to see VOD's of the games that are not live streamed ?

I mean if I look at the schedule on 27/6/11 is Code A RO32 and the next week is Code A RO8 will we still get to see VOD's of the other games if we buy the ticket ?

Awesome news altogether. Just to echo something many have said before, it would be awesome to get some kind of package offers for GSL / GSTL. I'd instantly buy a ticket that combined this GSTL season and the three next GSL seasons into one for a slightly lower price than all of them separately, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Yup, you're not alone for sure, i was buying gsl+gstl tickets since season 1, and it would be nice to get this 2 leagues in 1 gomtv package for lower price for those who want it all. Thx again GomTV for entertainment you bring to us!

The one odd thing I'm noticing is [url=http://www.gomtv.net/2011super1/news/65543]the schedule[url] is less than ideal in some ways. In the future it would seem to make more sense to alternate week on which groups have 2 games, instead of doing all 1 group's extra games first and then all the others.

A Starcraft 2 ProLeague ? I guess that means I have to pay again :D

Thank you, I am sure this is going to be absolutely awesome.
Will there be a SKT KT rivalry ? Who is ACE ? Are there going to be teams who lack z p or t lineups so that we can mock them ? I certainly wish so ! Combined with the Fantasy GSTL, I can only hope that PL and GSTL never broadcast at the same time

This is fantastic. The schedule graphic is soooo useful, and it's great to have all the formatting information right here.

Some may not be a fan of the pricing, but remember, they're still offering a completely free live stream, and the amount of content you're getting is massive if you do choose to spring for the vods and HQ stream.

The pricing is kinda high, but considering how long it's gonna last, it's not terribly bad. I'd kinda prefer the option of a GSL/GSTL combo deal though!

GSTL is huge !
One thing that was frustrating with the old GSL was that sometimes your favorite player was out in first round and you didn't get to see him play for at least a month.
It's not the case anymore, with this GSTL we'll be able to see the player we are fan of (for me MKP, MVP and Bomber :p) play A LOT more. That's why the TL is awesome

About code A, see this :

It seems that the first GSL week of the season will have a 2 broadcasts a day, 13:10 and 18:10 KST.

Ah. That should be edited into the OP or GOM should change their post to show the correct schedule -_-

Exactly same for me. I think I haven't missed one day of the GSL since the open season 1 =) I'm addicted.
Wow, I thought the GSTL was starting next week. But no, it's starting in 3 days <3

Let me see if I get this right
The players dont play round robin, right?
If the player wins, he keeps playing, and the oponent team chooses another player to play against the winner. Is that right?
Because I really hoped they adopted the ProLeague format. Much better, you get to see more of the players, and it builds much more tension because one player cant simply carry his team.

I agree the Pro League system is more exciting and really relies on the entire team, rather than 1 star player winning it solo. For example, KT Rolster (BW team) does semi good to bad in Pro League because they can only really rely on wins from Flash, Stats and maybe Action, while hoping from some wins from others, but in Winner league KT suddenly becomes one of if not the best team, simply because Flash is so good, he can win matches by himself, or with just 1 or 2 win support from his team.

Both systems have pros and cons, so we will just have to see it play out on this large scale in SC2.

The format looks somewhat tricky but eventually we (or at least I) will get the hang of it, I also love the fact that Sheth made Code A!! This next GSL and GSTL season are gonna be awesome!!!
