This Friday ESL TV is hosting the first ESL TV Pro Invite Cup in the StarCraft II Beta. But this time not only four players are going to show their skills. A total of 16 players well known from the StarCraft-, WoW- and WC3-scene will play for honor and 200€ plus ESL T-Shirts by adidas. The cup will start live on ESL TV this Friday at 5pm CET and will bring you about 5 hours of thrilling StarCraft II action live to your monitor!

A lot of StarCraft players such as White-Ra, ret and Strelok join the show. Additionally some WarCraft III pros will join us as well as orly, who made a name for himself in World of Warcraft. The two former ESL Pro Series WarCraft III champions HasuObs and XlorD will be live in the ESL TV studio to give statements and their impressions on the games.

To find out the full lineup and tournament bracket, head HERE

There are also chances to get your hands on some prizes. During the show ESL TV will raffle 5 Starcraft II Beta Keys. To win, all you have to do is watch ESL TV and answer the question that the commentators will ask during the show.

There are also 10x 1 Month ESL TV Premium Keys up for grabs. All you have to do to win an ESL TV Premium key is post below why you think you need the key more than anyone else!

The show will be brought to you in German, but during the Beta Key raffle it will switch to English.

You find the Livestream HERE

The tournament setup:
Structure: Single Elemination
Mode: Best of Three
Mapvoting: 2 Vetos per players, High Seed bans and picks first
Prizepot: 200€ and 2 ESL adidas T-Shirts for the champion

I want a ESL Premium SC Key key more than anyone else because I dropped out of college to go pro at SC2 and don't have my own key still. I've been training Brood War the last 3 years after I heard the announcement for SC2. Plz pick meeee.

I'm in the same boat as Pokepill. Dropped out and everything to train. I've been training on and off on sc1 in preparation for sc2. Now that its in beta I've been playing as much as I can in between work and gf. I'd give my left nut to be able to have an ESL premium key to watch the pro scene and I'd give even more to actually get invited to that tournament or one like it. Please let me have one!

Doubtful half their sponsors are outside of Germany though! If German companies pay for their stuff they need to keep their German viewers happy.

I should get an ESL TV Premium Key because I've watched your ESL tv shows for a long time now. You should also bring back that guy who casted with Matt who always wore lumberjack shirts.

Why am I more deserving than other people? I don't know really. I'm #1 in my division and I've played Terran since day 1 beta? I'm also half German?

anyway, good luck with your shows.

I have my money on Lucifron. He's so young and he was coming up fast in WC3 scene. If he's not good at sc2 yet, he will be.
