3) WCG finals were two days ago and I had uncancellable plans arranged before I heard about it
4) IEM Katowice will happen just 2 weeks after I leave Poland for several months!

This is fucking unfair! My fate is a bitch and it clearly doesn't want me to visit any big e-sport events!


IEM Poland sounds awesome but bigger/better things are about to happen, just be patient my lovely creature. BE PATIENT.

Mana and Nerchio to the finals! Can you imagine how crazy that place could get if one of those two makes it through to the end?

tbh, nerchio vs mana wouldn't be so awasome as if i recall well, Mana did not ever won a set vs nerchio. I would prefer nerchio vs a top tier korean

It's not like he never beat Nerchio, but yes Nerchio rolls over MaNa majority of times.

And I was so envy for DreamHack Bucharest but I guess IEM Katowice evens the score. I don't know how Ukraine, Romania and Poland ended up as the central european countries with premier events at home but I'm glad we joined this "club".

Hey guys. I intend to come to IEM in Katowice (as a spectator) and this would be my first event of this kind. Could anyone more experienced tell me, how much should I expect to pay as entry fee? Do I need to make a reservation way ahead? Do I need to arrive at the site early to have a good spot? Do you know any good, but not expensive, hotels near Spodek? Anything else, that might not be obvious for me?

Thanks in advance for assistance and see you in Katowice.

There will be no entry fee (from what i know).
Poland is cheat. You pay like 10-15zloty for a good dinner (1euro=4zl).
No reservation is needed, thousands of people can get inside and I'm quite sure it wont be full.
For a good spot you should come like 2 hours earlier.

Greetings from POL.

Thanks Chrząszcz. That is some good news you bring, some of my friends want to tag along, but they were afraid it is going to cost like 200 zl to enter.

Cheap, not cheat. We don't cheat, really.

Also it is not true that Poland is cheap - that cheap at least. Warsaw definitely is not that cheap though there is little reason to visit Warsaw on your way to Katowice considering that Katowice has an airport. Good point though to write it clearly. Maybe we should prepare some guest-friendly maps for guests from outside the country? Katowice is considered hard to navigate in even for people speaking polish.
