I'm excited! Though that Broadcast time, looks like it'll be nigh impossible for me to watch anymore than one series if I even tried waking up early Also kind of a shame that soO and Solar and Inno and Rain have to re-qualify, but that's an easy enough task for them. Want to know the maps too!

Isn't it the same time slot as this year?

absolutely unimportant.



The prize pool is a great indicator of the state of the GSL and korean SC2. Last time I believe it was announced that the prize pool for the GSL was getting a cut of something like 20% or more, I forgot the actual number. You would have to be blind not to realize that's telling you something about the GSL and/or korean SC2. Something bad.


if you want to talk about korean viewership, lets first realize that in 2015 SC2 is finally going hit that sweet spot of(Dual leagues + proleague).

SPOTV wouldn't even consider running an individual league of their own if they didn't think they'd gauge enough interest.

Let's hope so, but for now I see the GSL paying less money and having 4 finals in a row in the studio.

It's because they saved all their money to rent Dongdaemun Design Plaza for Hot6ix Cup

I think it's an hour later, GSL started at 5 EST this year for the most part, maybe I'm wrong and messing up time zones/daylight savings. Point is Korea needs to move closer so I can watch GSL

Youtube VODs would be ideal like ESL did with IEM/WCS.

Nice! That venue looks sweet. And the slight point redistribution is interesting. I wonder what made them do that.

GSL have announced that Season 1 will begin on January 7, 2015 and end on March 14, 2015. GSL have also announced that first prize will be 40,000,000 Won or $36,050.00. The total prize pool per season will be $90,125.00.

ah... so they divided the 2014 prize pool for the 2 new leagues... ~90k for gsl and ~65k for Spotv while it was 150k for gsl last year

i don't know how you find the 20% increase for Korea though


It's 10% I computed wrong the first time

90k (gsl) + 67k (spotv) = 157k
last year : 150k
It's only 5% increase in $, is your 10% in won then?


WON WON WON


oh so parting wins the gsl

This is great. I'm happy prizes are more spread out. Ideally each league would have a $10million prize pool but one can only dream.

Also I feel like it's been 2 years since the last gsl! I'm desperete for more Code A/S action!
why?

So, season one will have no Code A. I guess that's the easiest solution.
