I could probably see Naniwa getting a spot since GOM does want this to be a global tournament, and likewise for Scarlett, but this tournament is still a ways off. It's 6 fanalists-2 for three regions- and 2 from online qualifier. Nobody will be invited unless he or she achives to one of the finals (unless there is some forfeit maybe?) | ||

At the moment, the plan for it is a Ro8 format, which includes 3 winners and 3 runner-ups of each region, and 2 from online qualifier. so basically korean only :D:D | ||

I mean, doesn't anyone remember when KeSPA did one last BW season in the midst of the SC2 transition? It seemed like everyone was suffering to some extent because of dividing their time between games. As much as I'm excited at the prospect of it I have to wonder how the players feel about it and if we'll be seeing sub par play in both tournaments because of it. GOM Classic tournament is just for those who are already playing BW. Players will not be playing both games. It's different from the hybrid league you are talking about. JangBi, Sea, Yellow, and other Afreeca steamers. | ||

I hope they change the GSL format since they have all this extra time. Make group stages bo5 or bo3 round robin please. Anything to get more games. Were you unhappy with last year and 2012's GSLs? Maybe this is some lingering preference from BW, but I feel like 3-4 "real" starleagues a year + whatever special tournaments and weekend tournaments you want to throw in is the way to go. There was a distinct oversaturation of content, I felt, in 2013 and keeping the same amount of GSLs but running them for longer can help build hype if done correctly. Now, if you just want to watch more games (you'd be in the minority I think), then obviously this isn't what you'd like, but I think it can turn out great if Gom handles it right. | ||
