WCS 2018 is kicking off much faster than WCS 2017 which is nice, but boy are these qualifiers short notice.

Both IEM and WCS are so short notice, it is so sad that you can't plan anything in your life when you are a Starcraft 2 pro

This year WCS Challenger in August was postponed by 1 week so it's not like the schedule is set in stone 100%

Really sucks that this is not only on crazy short notice but also happening a week before Christmas and during finals for most players in school.

I wish for an earlier WCS event than last year as Austin was like in March or April last year. But this is quite early though. They should announce a bit sooner though for the benefit of the players though.

I wonder which location will be dropped this year.

You should look at the CS:GO schedule then.

Absolutely embarassing to announce the qualifiers 1 week before they start.

This is nothing new, how can they not learn anything after all those years?
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Very poor scheduling. Also this EU/AM online qualifier is at the same time as the IEM south america and central europe qualifiers.
very illegal and very uncool

lol can't even buy advanced tickets to see star wars without a major tournament popping up with 1 week notice and making you miss your show

You'd think with 3 organizations (WCS, IEM, and WESG) still running SC2 events that they'd find some way to organize. IEM is immediately after the WESG NA qualifiers, so players like Neeb are going to have to choose one, and the IEM and WCS qualifiers overlap with each other. This would be somewhat acceptable when there were tournaments every weekend, but with the game in its diminished state organizers need to communicate to prevent conflicts like this from happening time and time again.

Still only $10,000 for the Challenger pot. Sad to see the semi-pro scene still being neglected. We need a $700,000 Blizzcon prize pool for show but viability is not needed for pros /s

Did they like plan this yesterday? Not only the short notice but so many conflicting dates. Blizzard dropping the ball again.

Blizzard adds a new event and all you see from the community is complaints lol. Literally the same as it was 7 years ago.

At least the qualifier format should cause less complaints.
