Dear GOMTV.net users,

2012 GSL Season 1 is on its way with the unforgiving Code S Ro32 being played out this and next week. We hope everyone enjoys the enhanced overlays and tweaks we introduced to improve the broadcast.

Korean New Year, also known as Seollal, is the most important holiday in Korea and will be celebrated over a period of days starting on January 23rd, the first day of the lunar calendar year.

We would like to celebrate the start of a great year of GSL and StarCraft II and at the same humbly look back and reflect on how it all started. The GSL has come a long way and has evolved a lot from its beginnings during the Open Seasons in 2010. These Open Seasons paved the way for the GSL as we know it today and shall never be forgotten.

In this spirit, we would like to announce that all TG-Intel STARCRAFT II Open Season 1, Sony Ericsson STARCRAFT II Open Season 2 and Sony Ericsson STARCRAFT II Open Season 3 VODs will be permanently made free to watch for everyone from January 21st 2012.

There will be no live broadcasts from January 21st until the return of the GSTL on January 27th because of New Year celebrations, so take your time to relive some great memories and witness how legends like Fruitdealer, MC and NesTea were born. Additionally, check out some of the great performances of our international competitors such as Artosis, TLO, Loner, IdrA, TorcH, Sen, Ret, Jinro and HayprO!

If you haven’t seen these tournaments and would like to watch the VODs spoiler-free, please use the following method:

Visit the schedule page and make sure the Hide match-ups spoiler protection is turned on. Then proceed to click the small arrow in the middle of the page below the timeline and select the league you would like to watch.


I wanna give a thumbs up to Mr. Chae for making this happen. Good to be able to go back to the beginning for free.

Don't forget Torch in the booth.

And MC and Nestea before they were good. And the antics of poopfeast420. And the Legend of BitByBit. And don't forget the entire MKP vs Kyrix series.

Gah, so many good memories. Granted, many of the games back then were quite low-level compared to today's games, though it's always fun to look back at history.

I was hoping this would happen! Thanks GOM!
Y'know sometimes people ask me y'know like "What's your religion and stuff?" And I'm like "y' know it's like RTS." Uh, and they're like, "What's that?" And I'm like, "Y'know it's kinda like, kinda like Buddism."

nicenicenice!

However, watching those games will probably make me want to claw my eyes out

I actually have all the seasons purchased (even Open Season 1) but I changed my account after that and thus don't have S1 in my purchase history. Nice that I can someday archive all the games if I want to.

<3 gom, I already loved watching some of it on the free weekend a few months ago. I didn't care about sc2 during the open seasons, and imo it's always sick to go back and watch some old stuff to see how extremly far this game has already come.
Also bitbybitprime!!!
