So, it looks like 4 of the 5 categories will be obsolete in terms of finding the champion..


That attitude... would have expected something else from a scottish man, remember your history.

cant see where the difference to iem's model is. why are they not working together? i mean the only thing iem is missing is a complete roster of the best players, to add credibility to the world champion title. and how are they going to "counter the koreans", meaning poor asians having to compete which them for the spots?

This is going to be great. Though with all the great foreigners like Stephano, Thorzain, Naniwa, Sase, and White-Ra being from America we're going to have probably the toughest qualifying tournament.


Is this some kinda running gag or why do so many Americans think these guys are from America? If at least one of them was from America!

About the no africa thing. Has anyone of you thought that its maybe because they don't think there will be much interest there?After all they probably know how much they sold.

Well since WCG wont hold any real gaming events any more... Blizzard has to step up! (Or was it the other way round?)

Thanks anyways Blizzard! I kinda giggled when I remembered ITG from 2 days ago, with all the complaints about Blizzard not investing into the competitive scene.

Why not make Asia into "Korea" and rest of Asia into "Oceania + Asia". Also merge the two Americas into America which is a continent according to my primary school European education.

It is a running gag, yes. The joke is that Americans like to call anyone who is doing well or who is popular an American, or that anyone who is not Korean is from the US.

And in fact pretty much everybody who knows about the joke likes to call a foreigner an American, and chant "U.S.A!" whenever it seems relevant, and whenever it does not.

Love that joke :D

This is awesome!!

Though im surprised Oceania only includes Aus and NZ, I would have though that Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore would have been included in that category

WCG had a much better format than this at least every country had their own qualifiers and every players has the opportunity to represent their country after winning their countries qualifiers . Here instead, especially SEA has to deal with Korea and as you know Koreans are pretty good in broodwar and sc2 . Sea doesn't stand a chance having korea in that category I hope Blizzard actually revised this decision and put korea in to it's own category .

Nobody cares about your silly "world championship" Blizzard, it's only Korea that matters.

The World championship organized by GOM held a teamleague, Korea vs World, with Artosis as World's coach. The World team didn't had any American in it, but Artosis called it team USA, and everything began from that.
