WCS Spring Circuit is approaching: Kiev is ready to welcome StarCraft guests from all over the world - and our groups are ready to be announced as well. A number of players have unfortunately canceled their participation so players list has been changed a bit: if you are going to attend the event and you can’t find yourself in the group stages, please contact us via starcraft@starladder.tv as soon as possible!

WCS Challenger winners have also received their Group Stage 3 opponents: remember that two more players will join each group after Group Stage 2 finishes.

The tournament starts already on Friday - best of luck to every WCS Spring participant!

8 BYEs, At least there is the knockout bracket. Hopefully we get more players for WCS Summer.

You shouldn't talk like that. Both because it's disrespectful and because you seem to know nothing about what's happening there.

i'd argue thats less ukraine's "fault".

i also think with the new loser bracket system this event will still be "better" than past WCS' and motivate people who have a tough first group to still show up and give it their best, especially as you then face a more equal opponent and are less likely to go out with 0-4 (or 0-6)

Less than whom's fault ? Blizzard/Tournament organization for choosing a country with visa issues known beforehand ? I'm with you.

But if you're suggesting another country's fault, I'll probably not agree about its identity.

No NA players what so ever, except those who come through the qualifier. Gogojoey is the only asian player that didn't come through Challenger (the qualifiers). Everyone else is from EU.

She's playing GSL instead, can't do both. She'll be playing in that soon =). This season there's a region lock that forbids a player to do gsl and wcs in the same season but they're scrapping that rule next season. So next time she could do GSL and WCS too if she wants.

As far as we know, that rule applied only to WCS Challenger. Sortof also tried to qualify for GSL S1 and he is competing in Kiev. She could still go to the open bracket, so must be something else.

That rule was changed almost as soon as it was implemented. SpeCial is in Code S and is also competing in WCS Spring/Kiev. The way the rule applies to Scalrett is that she was unable to play in this season of Challenger, and thus unable to compete for paid flight/accommodations. If Scarlett is not competing in the open bracket of this tournament, then it was for whatever other reasons (team/herself unwilling to pay for the trip out of pocket).
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?

Pretty sad to be missing a top 5 foreigner in Scarlett but it should still be a good event. Hope we get Serral vs Neeb and/or Serral vs special at some point.

Wow if Scarlett isn't participating that sucks. It's almost crazy how she hasn't made Blizzcon in the past few years and I think this will hurt her chances.

I am glad to see old school players like Dimaga, BRATOK and KAS. Haven't heard about them in a while.
