The KR WCG Qualifiers are still ongoing. MKP, Polt, and TaeJa all have paid trips to IPL5, but are in the Ro16 stage of WCG KR as well.

I assume that the best player from every country wont go to ipl5. WCG is the dream of many many players.

I see a problem for a korean player. Lets say MKP has qualified for WCG and GSL4 Ro4.

Yep, RO8 down to RO4 is a good compromise. Good to see GOM listening to the most important people, the viewers. Cant wait to see this, just hope its not another PVP Korean zergs and terran better pick up their game next season!

iIn addition to WCG/GSL conflicts, there are also potential WCG/IPL conflicts (I checked the status of both torunaments and edited my previous post).

I still highly dislike hosting several tournaments at the same time, for the 10 players who is in IPL 5 and have the chance to get to Ro4, they would be forced to play more and not be as well rested as their opponent, kinda like Mvp VS MMA at Blizzcon.

Atleast I hope they make it a 4-5 day event, where the Ro4 of GSL is on the first day, and finals are on the last.

Yeah, I wonder what choice would they make? I understand WCG is pretty important for Korean players. Imagine a walkover in the GSL semifinals.

Not really a big fan of GSL semis AND finals being played over 4 days, really think it will detract from the quality of the games played in the finals, especially if one player gets there only having played one or two matchups(incredibly rare, I know, but still)

I extremely suprised that IPL has not made any effort to coordinate better, this has the potential to be so awful for some players, especially the koreans who are in IPL 5, in the running for WCG and has the chance to get to a Code S Ro4.

Seems like there's too much going on in one weekend. It seems like IPL always takes longer than they planned so some of the games late into the night might be crap. I'll just hope that things turn out differently at IPL5...

The SC2 WCG are not too sexy tbh...
The production was not good, and look at the prizepool of last year. Less than Crossfire, Special Force, Asphalt, CS, Lol...
This year SC2 was not scheduled for a long time. Very little communication...
All that suggest that WCG is not really SC2 friendly...
Last year the list of players attending was not very impressing.

not sexy anymore for viewers yes, but for players is this (still) too sexy.
Look handball, the list of teams attending at EM (European Cup) was/is always much stronger than WM (World Cup), and however WM is the dream of all handball player.

Holy weekend of big prize pools. Also, glad that they don't just pick popular and hyped players for the World Championship.

I remember back in the day (like, last year, lol!) when IPL 1 was sooooo small, just a wee little prize pool and a couple of casters. Always knew IPL would grow large, but heck, this is even bigger than expected! And it hasn't dropped off in popularity; if anything, more people watch each season!

Smart move by IGN for hosting this league, and I'll hope everything works out ('specially with that whole deal with GSL) for an enjoyable finals.

I think this indirectly confirms Stephano competing in the next season of GSL since to get to the semi Finals he only has to play 3 days.
