Do you have a source? no source, but on reddit kevinknocke said it won't be ro8-finals i think? but yeah, this is kinda funny, six month qualifier period haha | ||

The other qualifiers has been a complete disaster. Many good players couldn't participate because the qualifiers was scheduled same time as other tournaments. Glad IPL took this decision | ||

Glad IPL took this decision I'm still super-surprised why IPL receives so much hate when the dates was announced way ahead but everyone says that it was announced with so short notice. And when MLG announced their qualifiers the very same week, then they didn't receive even one tenth of the criticism IPL got. Also, many Swedish players couldn't celebrate one their most important holidays because MLG had schedule a qualifier to take place during that weekend | ||

I really hope it will be Finals only, RO8-Finals would absolutely kill that season of GSL without a doubt. If GSL players wanted to play a tournament like that then they would play in a tournament like that, that crap just doesn't belong in GSL. I think I'd be okay with GSL Ro4 on Thursday night and then Finals on Saturday/Sunday night. Would give 2-3 days to prepare, not as much as usual, but still a decent amount of time. But definitely not Ro8-Finals. | ||

What date are you seeing it at? If anything, I see GSL now has Code S5 Ro4 scheduled for the 30th of November. That would line up with IPL5's rumored Late November date. Could have the GSL Ro4 on the 30th and then the finals on the 1st/2nd. Then we have to wonder if IPL would really clash with WCG. I really liked that November 8th-11th date too, but it doesn't line up with GSL or what Slasher said. | ||

That would be even more retarded than ro8 at IPL because someone could get hot for gsl 4 and then you break up their rhythm by delaying finals and starting gsl 5 before gsl 4 finals are played? | ||
