That's not a lot of money, even for a show match. Double or triple it, IMO.


but..but proleague did their pre match without prize money


Why the hell do people care so much about prize money? just enjoy the games and show some love to GOM for doing this.
BTW with a format like this which is so crazy and aimed just give a good show a high prize pool is pointless IMO.


People care for prize money, but only when they can bash the league they dislike (or, "Proleague doing pre-season WITHOUT prize pool is cool, but damn GSTL what a low prize pool you have for your pre-season !").


OT: I hope we'll see great games, and a bit more prepared than what we currently see (thinking about MLG winter showdown, where it seems they don't really know what they're doing, either using WoL units, or obvious strong builds, like the void-ray all-in which seems to pulverize terrans at the moment, not yet knowing how to defend :p )

Sweet! GSTL old school format with new school game! I kind of wish they would do this between GSL seasons so all players could focus soley on HotS. I feel like GOM is trying to 1up Proleague and be first to host HotS. It will be interesting to see which league will be more exciting to watch once both are using HotS.

Howling peaks is a Blizzard map. And Silver Sands can hardly be considered new, through this is the first time it is used in proffesional play AFAIK.
The basic key to beating a priest is playing a deck that is terrible.

LOL don't be surprised if AxiomAcer does poorer than FXOpen did in their inaugural season. How long have they been in Korea practicing HotS together in team house? How will the team balance GSTL appearances in March with the upcoming huge LAN competitions such as IEM, IPL, and MLG?

Hahaha I tell you what, we gonna see so many bad games in this GSTL.

Still really cool.

Yes, there will probably be a lot of very weird games.

Still a perfect move from Blizzard and GOM. They can adjust something pre-release after watching some of these GSTL matches. And there are going to be a lot of them. I cannot wait!

It's not even an upset. Axiom has a good team and they've all been seen with a fair amount of HotS. In this regard, IM may be the underdog.

Nice, quick switch to Hots indeed.

Might catch a few GSTLs...never really got around to watching it much. SPL was great so I expect this shouldn't be too bad. The air times might be a bit tough for my schedule though.

This is cool.
Some new maps, players will actually be practicing HoTS because it is worth something.

Only problem is the slighty small prize pool.

Not sure what you mean, they have been living with each other a long time and played with each other since their Slayers day. They've as much experience as any other team living and playing hots in Korea. You do know all of them are Korean's except Scarlett right? They've also said that the GSTL are their main focus. TB said he asked the team what tournament they wanted to go to and all of them wanted to compete in the GSTL the most. Also the concern you bring up applies to most of the other Korean teams as well.
