i remember around ~2-3 years ago someone posted a thread with this idea and totalbiscuit came in telling people the idea was "pointless" and would "never happen" and everyone who wanted it to happen "didn't understand esports"

that makes it doubly awesome that it's happening

This looks great tbh.

But I am confused about the days. In the banner it first says that the tournament will start on the 23rd of June and end on the 2nd of July, but then the first group is playing on the 30th of June and the and the finals are on the 9th of July.
Which are the right dates?

If imre practices he'll probably take this if he manages to beat PiG.
The guy is incredible in such formats because he can punch way over his weight when able to analyze his opponents, he has the same ability as PPMD in Smash, but relatively bad mechanics and not the motivation to be at the top so he isn't a progamer.
YoGo is kind of a ladder hero (considering he is a caster) but can't bring himself to play at his skill level when paired up against good opponents, so his ladder rank is a bit misleading. However he is still very good so he could play very well if people don't expect him to win / has no pressure to win.
Funka will probably go through lower bracket but not much more.
ToD has a nice MMR on EU and a lot of experience, plus the fact that it's kind of a "friendly" competition will help him play well, he can beat everyone here and probably won't be upset. Plus, if Koka doesn't beat Incontrol, ToD won't have to show his PvT (I don't know what race Rifkin plays and at which MMR) so imre will be in the dark against him.
Rotterdam is like ToD but less strong afaik? And since I managed to allin him easily recently I have a hard time imagining him winning this.
PiG has the best MMR of them all afaik, with random, so enough said? Being able to play all three races will be HUGE against imre.

Let's try to predict:
Group A:
ToD and Koka but with Koka losing to Incontrol in winner and winning in loser.

Group B:
imre and Rotterdam with imre winning in winner's bracket.

Group C:
PiG and Funka with PiG from winner's bracket.

Group D:
YoGo and TKL with TKL losing to Artosis in winner but winning in loser.

imre winning it all.

So far in O'gaming in house tournaments we proved that YoGo was the choker not me.

Yeah Incontrol definitely should be considered. I don't know if he'll take the whole thing but I'd put him in the top four alongside Pig, Tod, and Rotti.

I love the way Tasteless screams like a WWE match. How come he didn't cast the last GSL with Artosis?

Why is Tasteless missing?

Would've been interested to see all the major casters playing. I'd have to favor PiG since he's probably the most 'recent' player-turned-caster. But then again Artosis has been a champ before so you never know.

Tasteless doesn't play Sc2, and hasn't since like 2011. I don't imagine he'd be very good. Most of the casters that could have been in this but declined to play are not very good at the game or don't even really play. Playing would only cause them embarrassment and negative attention.
