Hey guys just want to clarify some things: 1) To apply you will not need to be in person to participate, the coaching will be filmed and done remotely 2) No league requirements at this time 3) Have to give us your information, so we can contact you if you are selected and send you swag/prizes
hahahaah LOLOLOL at protoss players. sweet tears!

If you are willing to play that race with coaching, and can play that race for the duration of the camp then absolutely.

Team Polt or Team Polt? I can't possibly choose!
Daaaang, this sounds sick. It's like the Ultimate Fighter, but with less egos and testosterone, and more computers and Starcraft2. Looking forward to watching it.
This is craaazy. I love both these guys but I'm Terran so... Polt!!!

good choice, tvz is more interesting than pvx and those players are great! gl to the participants
When does training happen?
Amazingly cool, I always wished someone would do this. I will watch every minute of this content.
Cool sounds like the sc2 version of ufc's ultimate fighter.

Filming will begin as early as next week, we are in the process of solidifying the schedule.
Awesome! The scene needs more stuff like this!
So are they looking for certain level players or what? Like are they taking Bronze players up to Masters players?
Holy. That teaser gave me goosebumps!!! XD AWWWW...Y NO PROTOSSSS!!?? =(
When will people be notified if they have been chosen? O_o
I cant wait to hear more on this! I would love to be trained by Polt! Wish me luck! But the idea overall is so cool I can not wait to see this grow into something more!
I thought Polt was at UT Austin? What happened, did he withdraw or something?
I linked my GM Protoss account but in the description of my application vid has my Zerg account linked if that's okay
I check my email like 5 times a day, it's getting borderline OCD. ANy ETA before we know?
Wow just noticed this! Cool idea!
This idea is excellent. Looking forward to broadcasting! #teampolt for the win!
This has some serious potential, great idea.
Oh this is a new video btw VIDEO
Do we know yet who's been chosen?
if you haven't recieved a message by now, you aren't in.
Holy crap, and they keep saying SC2 is dead in NA. This is awesome, really looking forward to it!

Yeah, it's pretty obvious. Scarlett wasn't available.

Bumping this because I can't find the show. I think it'd be more about the process more than the game play anyways.

I didn't forget it existed, I just assumed it was another failed e-sports endeavor.

Wow it was about time to be honest, some guy say is favourite moment was when Polt won last MLG so it is nearly 3 years old. Anyway I hope it turn out good I will watch it.
By the Holy Light!!!!! :-))))
Finally, but its weird to see hots after all this time. And i would have like to see some more from the games
I'm not even going to watch it, it's been so long. My one tiny youtube view isn't worth much, but it's something, dammit, and I'm withholding it.
waited two years for that >_<

+ Show Spoiler + Not that great to be honest, without the full game we can't realy see the progression of player especially since it seems like between day one and the final the order of the player didn't realy change with Kaitlyn cursing seemingly without effort. Oh well, gg to her!
Also was Basetrade taboo? It was so strange of them not mentioning it once with ZG.
