I've noticed that TSL have been doing much more international oriented actions, sending aLive and polt to MLG, letting them stream and now sending clide to a foreign event (If I recall sangho has been to quite a few before) I wonder if TSL are looking for a foreign partner or foreign sponser. Anyways best player in the universe got his group easy, and then he'll lose in the first round of elimination :>.

more money for stephano haha
|
This is so insanely stacked. And still more players to be announced.
Dreamhack!
edit: Oh, and CLIIIIIIIIIDE!

Cliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide!

All of the best foreigners are here, we need more Koreans.
|
