Do all people realise that a group of death is meant to be the hardest to call?
I do think people understand group of death rather as "raw amount of skill in that group".
There are group that are incredibly hard to call because the players are average, but average on the same level, and yet it's not a group of death lol.

gwanghalli is fucking BEAUTIFUL! hard to think that it will be fine for competition but i really hope so, that is seriously awsome map design. anaconda is more standard sc2-boring. ive been waiting forever for some really innovative and weird maps, go BW mapmakers!

So i will be in Korea in early/mid July and I would love to go see this live with my wife for a day or two.
I am trying to figure out where games will be played so I google translated the page and I think it says that games on Tuesdays and Thursdays will be held at Yongsan e-Sports Stadium for the whole tournament.
Does that mean that all games will be played on these two days? And I would be immensely grateful to anyone able to confirm the that they will all be in Yongsan?

Group G is gonna feature some absolutely brutal PvP's holy mother of god. Parting vs Squirtle? I won't even start to think of the outcome.. It'll be a silly BO win with one player going balls to the wall because Bo1s are dumb.
Surely not... FOUR TIMES IN A MONTH?!

no
I hated it all the way through
I was pretty vocal about their map selection and best of 1 crap.
I did not purchase a pass until the finals, and only because a certain ditzy korean was playing.

it will be very cool if blizzard will kick them out and GOMTV will come to save the day

This is absurd. WCS heavily, heavily favors players who make it to the top 5 in their region by giving them a double scoop of WCS points (big scoops at that).
A lot of players are going to be completely screwed out of Blizzcon due to extremely risky Bo1 play. If Flash doesn't make it to top 5 this season, does he even have a chance to make top 16 points by the end of season 3?

No it doesn't. It promotes safer play as if you play safe you don't die to cheese.

LOL. What a successfull Poll. 90%. Do you want more dare OGN organizers? Do you still think the community "understand" your "logictis issues"? I hope you finally you any right to organize any SC2 event. You dont even deserve the secondary stream for the GSL. Poor casters, so kind and good guys, working for such a bad bosses. Can you just imagine the Flash vs Innovation from the Group of Death playing BO1???First two games were all BO losses. Nice try.Keep doing shit and maybe someday will join the MLG and organize some WoT or Super Mario tournaments..

I thought the past years have taught us that SC2 is insignificant in Korea and that can be attributed to Blizzard siding with GOM over KeSPA/MBC/OGN. How will SC2 grow in Korea without KeSPA/OGN?

I dont believe in god, but will pray with all my forces to see this happening. Will be soooo COOOOL

Don't blame osl fuer bo1, blame blizzard. If they would do things right the format + map pool would be set for every wcs qualifier/challenger/premier tournament.
|
So if anyone loses 2 games they go straight to challenger... I thought we'd moved on from that format...
Well here's to hoping that the good players don't do anything stupid (like Flash going for a 14cc every game...)
I suppose the positive is that we could see more of a mix up. But I really don't agree with Bo1s, especially in a competition where everyone is so highly skilled. Bo1s may have a place in the open bracket of a smaller foreign tournament, but they don't belong in WCS Korea premier league IMO.
Also feel like I'm being robbed of some games here...

For the sake of arguing :
If you would play vs Flash in a bo1 with money/points on the line, would you try to cheese him or would you play your macro game?
Also look from a statistical pov how many games bo1 ended up in a cheese if you want to argue on this more.
