That said, I hope Flash's game demonstrates that in spite of his immature understanding of the game, he can still rape the current scrubs who got in on the SC2 bottom floor.

I'm pretty sure none of the guys still in the OSL will be on this show until the tournament finishes.

The idea to keep player names hidden until match 3 is genius.

People are going to analyze the **** out of those games to try to find who it is though, and I expect them to pretty accurately come to a conclusion.

I see your GSL players and raise you Stephano.

And all GSL players will drop WoL for HotS immediatly, since there are no WoL tournaments around atm. Sounds logical!

I doubt Flash has practiced any SC2 at all recently due to the OSL.
It will be interesting to see how far raw talent will take him.

I don't think he was ever top 5 in the world, and certainly not easily.

They shouldn't do it so early.
The best KeSPA SC2 players will, at most, be able to take games from early round Code A players, for now.

I am excited for this. We will finally get a starting point to where the BW pros are really at, and see them evolve over the next few months/years

I think I remember reading a snowbird post saying that the GSL won't change in the middle of the season, they'll start hots in the next season.

And don't forget, the WCS will stick with WoL all the way even if HoTS is released this year.

Stephano practices a lot. I don't buy that 3 hrs thing. He may not be practicing a lot like NaNiWa, but he definitely pays the price for his success

I hope this isn't a "showmatch" like those one's where MKP off-raced as Toss and it was clearly set up before hand/none of the players gave it their all. That was really disappointing.

It took KESPA 2 years to approve WoL as an e-sports title, i dunno why people think they will pick up HOTS without a hitch :p

Any word whether these will be stream to the international community?
If not how last decade of you KESPA
