Just an hour ago decided to check the tickets for IEM Katowice - was surprised to find out tickets for the weekend show (SC2 and CS:GO) are are actually SOLD OUT. Damn, it's a stage on the stadium and no tickets left 2 months prior to the event. I wonder where they should hold the events to allow larger live audience...

Actually the tickets get sold by batch. There were already 2 batches, and I'm not sure if there will be more batches afterwards. (There were last year iirc) I got my tickets the day the 2nd batch went live (which is before Christmas) so it wouldn't surprise me that it's sold out by now. You can also attend the event without ticket, however you may have to wait for like the longest time.

If you want to buy tickets I suggest you look out for it closely and wait for the potential 3rd batch.

I think Dark wins WeSG before anyway. The only players that beat him in long series are Innovation or Stats. Wouldn't bet on Maru or Classic
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

I had to look this up.

All qualifiers are open to all participants, with no region restrictions.

Very happy about this.

Bear in mind that the line outside of the Arena is really huge. Like, really.
I used to organize tournaments for ESL Italy and referee Go4SC2s, WCSs, and IEMs for ESL SC2.

fix ur , and . on prize money its saying its only 400 and 150 dollars

This. While you europeans might be better in almost every way (metric system, health care, university tuition, paid maternal leave, paid vacation days, internet/cellular prices, net neutrality), using a dot to separate three digits is just obscenely wrong.


So this gives us a free pass to call for a "fix" every time the absurd american date format is used, right?

Only if you're promoting the best date format which is year-month-day (YMD), used in China, Korea, Japan and Taiwan. Coincidentally it sorts perfectly in computer directories.
