Thankfully they included fight/lodging, so players hopefully won't be competing at a loss (aside from 1st/2nd place).

10k/2k/650 is a bit of a drastic change in prize money though. "I got third at the Hong Kong E-Sports tournament.. for $650/$13k"

Awesome. Prize pool for SC2 isn't super high, but considering you are paying for flights and accommodations it is totally worth it for players to go. I really like the diversity of players that are going to be there based on this qualification system :D

Guys, don't you see what this means?

1) Warp Prism buffed
2) Hong Kong Starcraft tournament.
3) JUST LOOK AT THAT WILDCARD FLAG.

The PRISM is buffed. The U.S. government is behind this and using this whole thing as a clever, elaborate, expensive ruse to capture and take down Robert Snowden, the NSA leaker who is hiding in Hong Kong!

That being said, should be an exciting tournament.

I always believed China to be the next El Dorado for esports.Large population,huge stream numbers,many interested sponsors people with money willing to invest,many talented gamers.It is a shame that the Chinesse community isnt that connected with the rest of the sc2 world.Would be nice to have some sort of world starcraft federation that would bring all communities together.imagine the posibilitties

The scheduling has already been thought out and written out, but nothing is set in stone yet. There are basically two stages, the smaller one in the foyer, and the larger one in the auditorium. The scheduling has been done such that we utilize both stages (along with the other 4 games, as much as possible) while providing reasonable time buffers and breaks for players and casters alike. A 8 player bo3/double elim tournament can be conducted comfortably in one day. I can post a tentative schedule if people want me to.

This awesome, can't wait to see who gets the pirate spot. Maybe a Somalian player.

edit: thanks wax for stealing my jokes

I agree that the prize pool should be more evenly distributed. First place gets five times more than second! Even GSL isn't that crazy.

Oh well, only reinforces the large income inequality gap that is characteristic of Hong Kong's capitalistic economy
