I certanly want him to talk about all the dog figths all those not OP reading noobs are breaking loose every where in the forums. | ||

[MLG] MLG and GSL Exchange Program [GSL] MLG and GSL Exchange Program [TL] MLG and GSL Exchange Program + Show Spoiler [MLG official announcement] + ![[image loading]](http://wordpress.tools.majorleaguegaming.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/mlg_gsl_545.jpg) MLG is honored to announce a true game-changer for the world of competitive StarCraft 2. Beginning at MLG Columbus and continuing throughout the 2011 Season, Major League Gaming and the GOMTV Global StarCraft 2 League are establishing a League Exchange Program that will send the best MLG players to compete in the GSL, and allow top Korean talent to play live in the US. Pro Circuit Players Competing in the GSL
GSL Pro Players Competing on the MLG Pro Circuit
This historic partnership marks the first time the GSL has ever qualified a player directly into Code S based on results from another tournament, and MLG Columbus will be the first time Korean players have ever competed live in an open-registration StarCraft 2 tournament in the US. We are working closely with the GSL to coordinate schedules so that all players involved will be able to compete in both the GSL and the Pro Circuit. The Players The following four GSL pro players will attend MLG Columbus. We are honored to welcome these players to the already stacked pool of talent competing on the Pro Circuit.
The full Pool lineup will be announced on Tuesday, May 17. Please go here for an explanation of minor changes made to the competition format to incorporate the larger Pools. The Pro Circuit Livestreams: A Completely New Experience Our partnership with the GSL is not the only new beginning for MLG StarCraft 2. Over the past month, we’ve taken many steps to improve and enhance our streams and our live spectator experience, for MLG Columbus and every Pro Circuit Competition to come. The changes we’ve made are so extensive that they require an announcement of their own, so we’ll be bringing you those details soon. For now, know that if you come and watch live, you’ll be able to hear every word spoken by the casters in the venue, and if you’re watching from home, you’ll be able to see every minute of the action. And there’s going to be a lot of action to see. We’d like to thank the GSL for their cooperation and generosity; with this exchange, we can bring players from all regions together to fight on the same playing fields and stand on the same stages. The future of StarCraft 2 starts now. Join us in Columbus and be a part of it. Competitor passes for Columbus are on sale now. | ||

Placing 4 koreans in the championship bracket is positively horrifying :O I am way more thrilled by the fact that top-placed players will get seeded in BOTH tourneys and get a FREE trip to contend! Holy cow | ||

I wonder if this is the big announcement that is worth creating a mini-SotG for. It is certainly huge, so it fits that criterion, but it's not as personally related to JP as I was expecting. I was expecting something related to Day[9] since it's coinciding exactly with when Day[9] said he was officially done and could do SC2 full-time. Maybe they are two different announcements and we'll find out more about the JP-related news on Monday as he tweeted. | ||

special pre-GSL finals SotG show, day9 in korea. MLG-GSL announce partnership to seed top spots in each others' tourneys. JP announces upcoming announcement of Big Personal News. In other news, TSL is tomorrow, Idra is banned from TL forums again, and gets slammed by Complexity for 'unprofessional' (read: hilarious and hype-inducing) commentating of Cruncher on NASL. EDIT: SotG lies on top of some of NASL today /sadface. I'll have to watch both at once to see nani vs. squirtle on 1.3.3 | ||

maybe JP is gonna go to Korea for a while, like a MLG liaison or something. This would make me sad, SOTG is already late in the day for me. | ||
