Isn't that the whole idea of the system? Pay less = get less? Really confused by this post.


"paying more for less" I mean I didn't need the mobile or Korean VODs so I just got the light. But then the one with Korean VODs get Blizzard Cup and this tournament for free, plus perhaps some more tournaments. So it could end up if I pay for some tournaments that end up getting included in premium that weren't previously mentioned, I pay more and still am without the mobile and Korean VODs. What's confusing about what I wrote?

I am really pleased to see this tournament! I think that it does a great job of bringing some old faces back into the scene for a short, light-hearted tournament, especially for that gap on GOM's calendar between the Up & Down matches and the next GSL season. As a Premium Ticket holder, I am also pleased with the value that GOM has infused into the package, already including the Blizzard Cup and this upcoming tournament. I certainly hope (and suspect that) they will continue to do these tiny filler tournaments with decent prize pools and unique themes! Plus, as an added bonus, this tournament will allow for some good tests of some of the new maps used in upcoming seasons.

Can some elaborate on this for us newbs with no frame of reference. Why would 2nd place win? What does true inheritor of kings mean and whatdoes the word Kong even mean in this context. I read through about 5 pages I just feel left out of this and I'd like to have a simple non facetious explanation
P.S. I'm nub. If you'd like you can follow me @xthurst but its not worth it ill be honest

Also besides mobile and Korean they get dual streams. I also got light. But I mainly want vod access. My point would be. You are still getting everything you thought you'd get with the package. Sure the options you didn't choose are now diff, but you're not losing something that was originally advertised

GOM should have chosen Ohana, as the second-place winner of the map contest.

They chose the overall winner, seems fair . Hopefully this paves the way for more foreign maps in GSL.

By the same token, Cloud Kingdom was #2 in fan and staff voting, which, admittedly, made it the overall winner. From the writeup:


It may not have won the public vote or the staff vote, but coming second in both polls sends a pretty clear message that this map is good.


It's perfectly trollish either way ^^. It's so funny it's almost sad how much the former finalists are getting trolled by this tournament. But heck, money is good regardless and the winner amount is no chump change.
