4 seasons in 2013. phew. so there will still be 4 code s


This is all I care about

As long as they don't reduce the number of GSLs I'm fine with their region locking. Not like I cared about SC2 outside Korea anyway

I might have been wrong because i wasnt thinking about OSL. I have no idea. There should still be 4 this year since they brought up that Hot6 cup again having the 8 finalists play at the end.

Could've made that 2 million$ instead if they didn't fly everyone to Korea and rent a building and organize a party just to stand on some stage and paste a link. Kinda disappointing news, shielding foreigners from stronger players, meh. Was expected though.

Is it safe for me to unsubscribe from MLG yet? Or are they still getting people over for their weekend tournaments?

So basically they're sparing all foreigners until the top where Koreans can shit all over them?

I believe points are cumulative without caring for region, so if every season finals the Koreans gg train foreigners the final 16 can all be Korean.

This is how I see the whole WCS format working now

Korea
Four GSL tournaments in 2013, and an OSL in Season 2. Season 1 of GSL already passed, so the other two and OSL will be the qualifiers for WCS

EU
ESL will organize IEM events which contribute points towards WCS

NA
MLG is the tournament grounds for NA + Polt

At the end of the year on Blizzcon, players with the most points play in a Ro16 bracket to become Blizzcon Champion/WCS Champion of the year. NASL and DreamHack are independent to this deal, and players from the three regions can play in these without being restricted or losing WCS points.

So, does this mean the OSL is being forced to adopt the GSL schedule?

Article said that the WCS events would follow the tournament structure of the GSL with Code S, A, and B. Am I reading this right? OSL is now GSL with a different title basically? Exact same scheduling? I ask because OSL has had a more stretched out schedule with fewer games each night. OSL takes more weeks for each tournament.

That is gone? I hope not.

I hate these forced regional balances and think it is beyond ridiculous for a professional sport. Trying to make any tournament the most important tournament in the world with 50% charity seeds is disappointing to say the least.

If this means less code S seasons, all american MLG's/ESL's, I think it only makes the scene worse. I don't want to watch two days of dire games to get to the few final games that will actually be worth watching.

I don't really like the WCS, it take way too long to get through it. I prefer GSL or OSL as the level of the games are pretty much the same and you get more of them in a year. Sad to hear GSL and OSL tournaments are getting reduced.
