this makes no sense. why have the "entire season" to qualify for a champiosnhip be determined by a brand new game.

again, internet know it alls that dont know anything. if you have your entire season be WOL...let the championship be WOL.

and hots isn't even remotely closed to balanced.

isn't 3.12 the release date and isn't this tournament before that? will blizz even have the hots servers up?

Good, maybe this tournament exposes how ridiculous some things are in HotS, and Blizzard gets in a balance patch before MLG that does more than moving Overlord speed to Hatchery.


Man I sure missed the times when zergs felt they were underpowered and would whine about absolutely everything from planetary fortresses to missile turrets and battlecruisers.

No, Blizz won't have any HotS servers up, they're going to play an entire tournament on a game they're unable to actually play...

Wow thats awesome, i hope player knew before.. and they wont be able to play from march first to march 5th? ;o mean no practice... Well its a shame for player but i guess for me its good, because since HOTS beta will be down ill be able to watch some HOTS tournement games before the lunch can't wait for this tournement!!!

It's too early to be pushing HotS tournaments IMO, especially of this caliber with that much money on the line. We are going to be seeing some abusive boring games



Even with the wacky balance (which most of it is people not understanding the game) it's probably more balanced than you think.

I'm excited for this. Haven't been watching much HoTS but I think it would be interesting to see what the pros come up with with the time they have left

This question is actually legit since Blizzard is going to close the beta before the IEM.
Back to topic, I'm exicited to see a big tournament on HotS but I have the feeling that it doesn't make a lot of sense to have a whole season on WoL and the final on HotS. Only hope that it will balanced enough to make it really interresting.
It's good to be back

Not really, they only close the PUBLIC beta, selected people would have access.

Anyway, if the GSTL pre-season is running on a independent server provided by Blizzard (LAN!! ), this could be the same.
I should warn you, getting what you want and being happy are two quite different things.

I'm excited for this! It feels like there hasn't been much action lately other than GSL.

why cant you just see it from IEMs perspective? WOL is loosing viewers...HOTS is giving them a new chance to gain more...

As a spectator, I'd be more inclined to tune into HotS than WoL at this point. It's just fresh and more exciting. Early WoL had some of the funniest games.
