WCS AM will continue to include LatAm, Oceania/SEA, CN, and TW/HK/Macau, you can all stop freaking out about it.

The increased regional restrictions are big, but what the fuck about the Premier reset?!

Unless I'm misunderstanding that means everyone has to go back up the ladder. Given how ridiculously stacked KR is we're bound to lose some of the mainstays sent back to the abyss for awhile. It might be back to code B for ol' Flash.

I have mixed feelings about this. I know a lot of people want to have region lock so they can cheer for people from their country but does that really help the game viewership wise? Its also nice to see koreans go back to GSL and have a super stacked big tournament. Polt is probably celebrating though. :D

That would require me to make twitter. And then I'd be forced to mock literally everyone in sc2 and who would want that?

I hope the first season has really thorough qualifiers, like groups into double elim, or multiple chances like what WCS EU did

There goes anyone watching WCS EU and WCS America. Not many top players are residents in the continent they live in. Anyone got a list?

GSL just got screwed over by forcing players to start from the bottom.

All Premiers have slot in Challanger / Code A. But not with the changes, they all have to go through the qualis / Code B into challanger / Code A to get into premiere / code S in Season 1 2015.

Of course, Korea is on at a terrible time. I think you under estimate how much top play" factors into what people watch.

It's not like they can't reset with all those Koreans coming into homeland.
But considering that it's GSL, i better wait to some additional information, because Code A won't be able to handle that many players.

GSL OPEN, CYCLE IS CLOSING.

EU is still okay, you just need visa to participate.
It's way harder with NA though, but NA top-16 is stacked in 2014 consistently, it's huge blow to the region, if you're not chasing the money.

It's a conspiracy to get all the boring protoss players out of code S xD

Well I only watched WCS AM for the Koreans, so I don't really see a point tuning in as it doesn't personally appeal to me if it's just NA players who might get the same points as GSL.

The impact for the WCS EU will be very small I think. Among the korean players that participate in WCS EU, only San and MMA don't live full time in Europe.

For WCS AM however it'll be huge and I think it's a right thing because actually only Polt and viOLet train on the NA server. Other koreans live in Korea, come to play their Ro16 group and fly away the day after. This is bad.

However the new situation will be very complicated for the chinese players and I maintain that a 4th region that includes SEA/CN/TW would be a very good addition to the WCS system.

They are getting something. They are already renting in Korea, so why not rent in the US and bring the boys over. Crank needs an america girlfriend.

For WCS AM, Violet, Polt and Bomber all have visas at least, which I assume would be enough. I think any of the other mainstays could get a visa if they wanted to as well, just question is do they (Taeja, Hero, Jaedong)?

For EU, I'd guess MC has one but I don't actually know. I think he and the other GEM guys could get them if they don't already have tho.
