Blizzard Q&A on WCS 2014 - Page 32

Forum Index > SC2 General
646 CommentsPost a Reply
Prev 1 30 31 32 33 Next All
I'm seeing a lot of comments from people who are disappointed that we did not share the exact plans for WCS 2014. To clarify, we did not intend for this to be an announcement, or an announcement of an announcement for that matter

The reality is that we are still finalizing the details of WCS 2014 with our partners, however, we did not want to wait until everything was finalized before letting you know some of the things we were discussing. We want to give the community an opportunity to provide feedback before we locked down the specific details. We have outlined most of our plans and ideas in some of our answers, but haven't fully committed to any of the decisions because we want to hear from the community. Our goal is to confirm and announce the plans for WCS 2014 before BlizzCon. That gives you at least a week to give us your input on what we've shared!

Thanks again for your support!

Ok now you have to prove me that. Again I am not calling them losers or anything.




In the very least it is well known that MC has a girlfriend.


And DRG.


Mvp as well has made numerous references, Nestea is married, etc etc


And none of these players are at the top anymore. Cooincidence?

That's a pretty dumb claim. They already had girlfriends during their dominant reigns as well.

For all the complaining about WCS, we're about to have the top 16 players in the world face off at Blizzcon in possibly one of the best tournaments ever.

Really the only change to make is to have GSL and OSL concurrently instead of WCS Korea, and to have the grand slams be top 4 from each major tournament. (GSL, OSL, WCS NA, WCS EU)

Hey everyone - I wanted to update this thread and let you know that we’ve been working like crazy on WCS 2014. I know we set a goal to share our plans for WCS 2014 before BlizzCon, but it’s going to take a little more time to nail down the last details before we can make an announcement. We want to make sure we’re closing out the 2013 season as strong as possible, so we’re fully focused on the WCS Global Finals taking place at BlizzCon this week. We do plan to get into next year’s info immediately, so look out for more details about WCS 2014 shortly after the show. Enjoy the week. It’s going to be an awesome time for StarCraft eSports and I’m looking forward to some of the best matches we’ve seen all year. Talk to you soon!

Thank you it's no much better to have you guys at blizzard communicate whats happening. It was so frustrating even like a year ago when there would be long stretches of time where there was no updates on anything. So thanks for giving us small updates on what is going on, keep up the hard work and blow 2014 out of the water!

I think it's very reasonable to go out with a bang at Blizzcon before having to announce to 2014 WCS details. Thanks for the info Kim.

Really appreciate the communication Kim that you and Blizzard constantly give regarding your games (unlike some other companies recently). Hopefully you guys will make the best choices for WCS next year. Looking forward to watching Blizzcon for SC2 and HS on stream in a few days!

I am disappoint. Though I understand why they don't want to announce anything before blizzcon... You can't please everyone so waiting until they are gone is wise I guess.

Posts like this are really appreciated, thanks a lot! Better do it right than rushed, everybody is focused on Blizzcon anyways .
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

How about you be constructive instead of standing on the sidelines spewing vague and critical comments with nothing to back you up?
