Part of me loves that we are getting less Koreans in the tournament purely because I seem to only enjoy watching "foreigner" play now. That being said however, I do feel like it cheapens the tournament not having enough of a Korean representation who are obviously the top talent. I am truly torn between the two. Blah!! I want it all some how.... But still looks fantastic and look forward to following it.

Awesome! This *could* be just the right time in August for our local barcraft! Would love to do a proper 'day-long' barcraft for IEM instead of single matches like GSL finals. Are there any details on start and finish times that we could use as a rough guide for planning?

Yeah, imagine N America only getting access to double the number of spots that the other regions get. Engage brain before posting, sweetheart - IEM does stops all around the world throughout its season, the USA stop will feature lots more spots for players from the Americas I am sure.


PS> IEM Sydney!?!?!?!?! *great idea TheSneak*


Learn to read--wax is saying four spots for America(s) is overkill.

Awesome format, I always loved IEM for "creating" names, not just bringing them over.

Yeah, it's sad but true. Whoever doesn't qualify through Korea will battle it out on the NA qualifiers. I see quite a few Koreans eliminating each other.

You have to remember the only koreans that can play in NA qualifiers are the Koreans currently living in the United States, which limits the number of Koreans down to a veerrrrrrry small few. In fact the only top tier Korean in the U.S. that I know of us Violet.

Does America even have 4 players worth those spots ? I'd rather see 2 slots for Americans and 4 slots for Koreans imo

STEPPING IT UP !

Nothing to add to this system. Clear, difficult and yet rewarding for those who can come through. Feast did all 3 stages and we all know what happen. Good initiative. Now if only Carmac wouldn't lose hope for SC2, earth could be the happiest place in the universe.


Why would I lose hope for SC2?

Despite the very good changes in the tournament format, I really like the fact, that you will raise the "travel support" prize money (the money guaranteed for everyone who manages to qualify) for players that have to travel to another continent.

And dropping the 3rd place matches in favor of a bo7 grand final is something that is quite interesting. Not sure about that, but we'll see.

Shoulda been 3 for Korea and 3 for NA/China. Clearly biased format.
