After three weeks of group stage games, the quarter-finalists for the North American and European WCS Challenger tournaments have been determined. Four WCS Austin seeds are on the line in each of the North American and European Challenger playoffs, meaning the competitors are just one series win away from securing their spot at WCS Austin. Seeded players receive byes into the final group stage (RO32) of WCS Austin, alongside flights and lodging for the duration of the competition.

The EU quarterfinals are set to begin on Saturday, May 12 12:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00) while the NA playoffs will begin on Sunday, May 13 6:00pm GMT (GMT+00:00).

WCS Challenger: North America


WCS Challenger: Europe


In other regions, equivalent Challenger tournaments have already concluded. (Wiki)Has and (Wiki)Expect won the two seeds available in the Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau and Japan qualifier, while (Wiki)TIME and (Wiki)BreakingGG earned the right to represent China through their performances in GPL Season 1.

Stephano's screwed.
SC2 is the best game to watch and was the best to play before I grew old and slow...

Poor PandaBearMe. Single elimination for seeds is pretty harsh.

There can never be too much Serral vs Showtime.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

This ro8 EU lineup is seriously strong.

I hope Elazer will come home to play, to say that playing from Korea is difficult is an understatement.

Neeb and Scarlett looks very much set for the NA finals.

it's always fantastically entertaining, but I always end up feeling like I watched a brutal, epic MMA bout where the victor was never truly in doubt. At some point, you gotta wonder what kind of damage it's doing to his soul :'(

Showtime is the Sham to Serral's Secretariat.

Looking forward to both brackets!

When is this website going to start posting dates/times in the timezone of the reader? This mixture of KST, GMT, CET, CEST, PST, EST, etc etc make figuring out when things are actually happening much more difficult than necessary. The times on the posts are in local time zones, so lets do the same INSIDE the posts.

Train your brain with some basic math (or Google it, it isn't 1987 anymore and it takes about 5 seconds)

Otherwise, as said by someone before me: poor Stephano
I am a slave of Golden from now on. Obey a supreme leader of StarCraft 2 or you get banned. I am really glad to be citizen of Democratic republic of Golden.

Rough day for frenchies.
I hope Drogo will make it because he is teamless and has to paid himself for the trip.

Easy money for Serral I guess.
Shame Raynor won't play here he is on fire now

Think he's not old enough yet IIRC. I feel like that kid is gonna make a HELL of a debut when he turns 16.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
