And now i can talk about it... Thank you to my counter-parts at GSL and Blizzard for helping to make this great relationship come together. Just the beginning of many great things coming into Columbus!

Great, great news. Note that placing well at MLG now means you can earn a spot for an all expense paid trip to compete at GSL in Korea for a MONTH.


Wow, awesome. So did Blizzard helped mediate between the 2 parties(Gomtv and MLG)? That is pretty cool if true


"Mediate" implies there was a conflict. Everyone at MLG loves GSL and I think that sentiment is reciprocated. The eSports team at Blizzard helped make introductions at a senior level between the two organizations. Those guys do a lot behind the scenes that they don't get enough credit for (and are probably going to give me shit for calling them out).


Hope everyone is as excited about this collaboration as we all are.

would be quite funny if IdrA came top3, i guess 4th place would get it in that case

Code S status will be awarded to the highest placing player, regardless of country of origin, who doesn't already have Code S status.

Now that is insane, MLG-s from now on will be so stacked on players it won't even be funny :D.

Hopefully they fix the stream/organisation problems and live up to expectations put on them by Blizzard and Gom.
So, are you a pessimist? - On my better days. Are you a nihilist? - Not as much as I should be.

That sure is exciting news, and these 4 additions to the already amazingly talented MLG players pool should make MLG even more awesome that it already is.

And this... WOW

Now I wish I would've started practicing seriously a while ago... Well, I guess it still isn't too late, SC2 is still extremely young ^^

Edit: Forgot to mention this : MLG ROCKS! Keep it up guys! <3

This is some of the greatest news the SC2 scene has had for a while.

MLG being enough to earn Code A spots is amazing enough, but a Code S spot for the winner? That's actually a pretty major change to the entire GSL Code S format (since there'll be one less spot for up-and-downs), so they're taking this pretty seriously.

Stuff like this just makes the competition go up and up!

This is great news, as I was really worried with lack of sponsors that we wouldn't see many Koreans come to MLG. Since it would cost more to come over than winning the tournament.

Man, this is so ridiculously amazing. I'm so happy to see this partnership between two huge leagues. It looks like GOMtv is really staying true to their statement about trying to create a truly global esports (SC2) league. Since they can't conceivably create one in the west, this is definitely a great way to do it. It's so great that both leagues are going to be paying for the chance for the players compete in the other league.

I think the players are the clear winners regarding this news and that is always good news for esports.
Even during difficult times, when I sat down to play the game, there were times where it felt like god has descended down and played [for me].

I'm just waiting for the prize pool to be upped or something, they're putting so much money into the event to be great and everything, but the players aren't playing for that much compared to other events.
