Autowin // March 14th, 2015
We’re pleased to announce that Blizzard Entertainment has named Copenhagen Games 2015 as an official WCS Global Event for their StarCraft II World Championship Series.
Winners of the Copenhagen Games StarCraft II tournament will once again earn both prestige and cash, with a total of 1800 WCS points and a share of the $10,000 USD prize pool up for grabs!
At last year’s event, HyuN walked away with the title after beating Happy in an exciting finale, and we hope to see some equally strong matches this year. We’ll have renowned casters Thomas “Khaldor” Killian and Kevin “Harstem” de Koning guiding the live audience as well as our online viewers through each stage of the tournament.
This year’s Copenhagen Games, sponsored by BenQ, takes place April 1th-3rd, 2015 at the Øksnehallen exhibition hall in Copenhagen. Online qualifier for the StarCraft II tournament will be held leading up to the event from March 21st. For more information and to sign up to participate, go here www.binarybeast.com/xSC21503130.
The StarCraft II tournament will change slightly from what we previously announced in order to accommodate the WCS system and points. Please visit the Copenhagen Games website for updated rules and scheduling. You can also contact us on Facebook and Twitter with any questions.

Sadly this overlaps with WCS Season Finals, so all the top 16 participants in that tournament can't compete at Copenhagen Games, which includes for example Snute and Bunny.

It sucks that Bunny can't attend the only international Danish tournament. :/
Someone also pointet out that it's against Blizzard rules to have overlapping WCS events, so yeah ..
