Looking nice. Most of the players are pretty good (although Destiny was a highly questionable choice compared to Select, Machine or even Trimaster), and should be some sick games.
Calling Thorzain Europe, Kiwikaki NA, and MVP Korea.
I wouldn't include machine in that list, he isn't even grandmasters, nor is he owning it up in masters. Feels like the North American players are by far the weakest of the groups though!

Really dissapointing to see no korean protoss except for hero =(
Anyways I guess some good tvts will come out from korea and also some nice overall matches for europe

From the looks of the brackets every single game will be worth watching. Can't wait!

NA gonna get raped.  Out of curiosity who are the best in NA? Sadly even Idra isn't really a global contender any more, and he's probably the best non-Huk player to come from NA. hmm, the best in NA are Idra, Huk, Slush, Kiwikaki, Sheth, Cruncher, Drewbie, qxc and if you count Demuslim then him too. even though Trimaster has only done well in 1 tournament he's been owning people for a few months now, it's just hard to get through open bracket of MLG and he even did that. there's like 6 people there that should've been invited over Tyler/Incontrol/Destiny at least. EU is still stronger in general but it's kind of disappointing, the invites we have Jesus Christ you don't event count SeleCT the guy who fucking won Bnet invitation for NA??? i had select but i editted the post to make it smaller and he got taken out accidentally, straighten out your panties and don't get so worked up bro I'm not going to read through 12 pages of posts.
Seriously dude? You're not going to just click on the "All" button, and at least skim through 12 pages? You could even do a search of whatever you are looking for, skim that, and save yourself time with whatever you are asking. 12 pages is not monumental.

Jesus, too many tournaments up in here! Now MLG has a new one!? Ugh, it becomes a pain to keep track of all this. From a viewer standpoint, I feel like it has become over-saturated. Too many tournaments makes each championship feel less important individually.
But it's good for the players at least, more money to be won.

TEE-LER THIS YOUR TIME YOU CAN WIN THIS DO IT!

Just curious why Destiny is on this list. Popularity gets you spots ?! .
That's E-Sports!?

missing huk and select obviouslt from NA, I was going to mention morrow, stephano nerchio for EU but then i realized EU is already stacked full. Wondering why MC wouldn't be in KR as i think they are going my MLG results and he did place third, higher than puma or hero...

What is the point of adding MVP? I think it means a few things:
A. They would like MVP to be there at the Nationals for sure. And if he wins this regional he has good reason to attend both.
B. They think MVP will lose to Nestea at Blizzcon and would like to secure him in some other way.
C. Vice versa. They want Nestea to come to Nationals but think he will lose to MVP at Blizzcon. By putting MVP in regionals who has a good shot to win both it and Blizzcon. They would then "reveal" their fallback plan by inviting the runner-up of Blizzcon which would most likely be NesTea.
or
D. MLG forgot MVP is contesting at Blizzcon as well...

This kind of reminds of the HDH tounry in beta; they choose players based on popularity and make exciting match ups for large viewership. Fair enough, I'll watch.
I'm a little sick of people whining about the eu line up, saying it's not strong. I think the only two players who are questionable are Jinro and Haypro. I saw a few people bash on sjow, although he has had good showings lately, especially in MLG. Also, eu lineup is 6/8 Swedish... I guess it just show how dominant Sweden is outside Korea.
really excited for this though

Yep, for invites likely. While NA has probably more deserving players, I don't think they have many other players that would bring more viewers like Destiny would. I honestly watch many tournaments only because of the fact that he plays in them, so it could be a decent move.

NesTea? :'(
He probably declined, if not, MLG is assuming he will win blizzcon, perhaps?
I'm kind of amazed select isn't in, thought, there are definitely some questionable names in this tournament..

Aww man, no Demuslim

I think Nestea has stated that he won't play in any online tourneys and Select was invited but he declined.

no socke no tlo? so sad

My picks for regional winners:
WhiteRa, IdrA, and ...
I hope Boxer.
If not, I hope MMA.
But my brain says MVP. :|
|
EU is really domainted by Swedes. 6/8 and Morrow isnt even in.
Could have had some more polish players: Mana and Nerchio.
|
Idra vs destiny, should be fun.
thanks.
|
