More than likely lessened it due to travel costs.

This is only season 1 dates. It sounds like its been a scramble to get it going in time for this year at all. Hopefully for season 2 onwards it will be more offline play.

And now even more reason for koreans to play in these.

It will start with WCS season 2.

Does anyone know what are Blizzard's criteria for invites ?

False. Code A/B (challenger/qualifier) for EU/NA will start soon after S (premier)

Remember that Code A is not really a standalone tournament by itself; as players are knocked out of S they are fed into it. It's a constantly running relegation/promotion tournament.

According this article http://www.esfiworld.com/wcs-america-europe-formats-detailed-invited-players-to-be-announced-april-12th/

''MLG will only be covering travel expenses for players living in the Americas. However, if a player first travels to any city in the United States, MLG will then pay for their flight to the MLG studio from that U.S. city.''
''Flight and hotel will be provided at no cost to players who are traveling from within Europe.''

Korean who want to change region have to pay for the flight form Korea to US(or Germany) by themselves.

Woah, that’s dumb. Although if they invite only regional players and the rest has to go through the qualifier that would be bearable.

So if this whole first season is generally invites only, it is now up to Blizzard to determine if any Koreans are on hand in EU and NA? Should be interesting to see who is invited.

They are setting this all up quickly. They can't create both code S, A and B overnight without cutting a few corners. Invites are fine for the first season, since those aren't good enough to stay will get weeded out.
