I think Violet is in korea playing GSTL for Azubu... but im sure with how current prize money is distributed - GSTL ( and also proleague) might be willing to take a longer break so their players can bring all that WCS money home. | ||

Only half joking about that. I think as long as it's not a bunch of BO1, then it'll be 'acceptable' for the first round. | ||

If we assume that GOM was able to run these tournaments with higher pricepools without the direct help from Blizzard, they should be able to raise the pricepool in this case too - that is, if they feel the need to. | ||

I don't think people understand that GSL still has the piles of money they've been stockpiling over the past few years. I'm half-joking, but will GSL give out the usual sum plus the WCS amount for the seasons they host? | ||

This. If this is the prizepool that Blizzard is providing, then GOM is giving nothing in rewards? And if GOM wanted to also throw in to the prizepool as well, why would Blizzard stop them? This all doesn't make sense to me. Like the format, though. | ||

Although I do personally hope gsl at least does Because GSL merged with WCS KR and hypothetically has some money to spare now if Blizzard provides the whole prize pool for WCS KR while MLG and ESL still run their own tournaments besides WCS NA/EU. | ||
