The season end playoffs is played as a best Bo3 of Bo7 matches, with the format alternating between Proleague, All-kill, and Proleague again. The format has changed to be a single elim, with the #1 seed playing the #4 seed, and the #2 seed playing the #4 seed. The GRAND FINALS are played as a single Bo7 match. | ||

Wow so it is being played in an E-sports Stadium and not a tiny box. Wow 95% of this thread is still bitching and moaning about this reveal. I'm not a huge fan of Proleague or broodwar of the past, so perhaps that's allowing me to look at this data and information and come to rational conclusions here. This should be good news to be most people, yet it seems like the majority of posters here are on the verge of slitting their wrists over this. No idea what's happening. Friday the 13th? Viewers will care a lot more about the quality of the matches than the prize pool... | ||

(actually maybe sucks to be the number 3 seed because then you don't play at all) Bo5 is really going to help KT, so there's a bonus. | ||

I can't tell if you're trying to correct me or are just adding more information? I honestly would like to know if I'm wrong about the format, as the wording in the OP confused me at first. ;; | ||

Number 4 seed is amazing, you have to lose twice to be out! And if they win their first 2 games they auto-win (Maybe SKT will be able to use all their star power in one match after all!). | ||

Sejong Science Base (I think, no English localised name) + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/BVUNCwG.png) Outboxer + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/s2jLqnN.png) Both look pretty standard. Outboxer looks like it could turn out some interesting games, Sejong Science Base kind of looks like a Terran favored map, especially with both choices for 4th bases being so exposed. I think you'll end up with a dynamic where Zerg has trouble taking a 4th and Protoss gets spread too thin. | ||

I hope they do at least one last OSL or fulfill my dreams and bring back BW... doesn't sound like that according to this http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=438328 Q: Why did you found an entirely new channel? A: With MBCGame's sudden closure, only OGN was left to broadcast Proleague. In the midst of that SPOTV2 started broadcasting Proleague. We know there were a lot of complaints about the matches held at the Shindorim studio, so I hope you can forgive that as we are moving to a new channel.

So teams are still going to need at least 6 players (plus one re-used for ace match if necessary). Maybe they're trying to cut down length of broadcasts or something. yeah that's probably it Q: SPOTV2 will be broadcasting women's basketball. What happens to that once SPL starts? A: We are running 3 sports channels. As we prepped for Proleague, we realized that our new channel wasn't receiving enough recognition. Because the sports and games audience have overlap, we decided to broadcast both of them live at the same time. We plan to broadcast women's basketball through SPOTV1. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=438328 | ||
