via NSG.gg

Cheeseadelphia X will be awarding two WCS North America Challenger seeds in addition to its $10,000 prize pool. While players from any region may sign up for the event, only WCS North America eligible players can win Challenger seeds. Cheeseadelphia X will be held in Denver, Colorado during July 27-28.

Cheeseadelphia is open to all players, but only players eligible for North American Challenger League can claim the WCS Challenger seeds. If the top- performing players are ineligible, or are already qualified, the Challenger seeds will cascade downward to the highest- performing eligible player. Players from the European, ANZ, Taiwan, Latin America, and Chinese regions cannot earn Challenger seeds for their regions at Cheeseadelphia X.

Great to see Blizzard recognizing a small event with so much history in the scene.

Very nice to see. I assume that if a seed cascaded down to, say, 5-6th place, the tied players would play each other for it?

Yup even if it cascades down to 7-8 we'd just need to do a normal tie breaker match. If somehow the top 7 players were not able to get the seed we have some interesting tiebreaker ideas.

That is absolutely great. I think Blizzard should acknowledge smaller events. Wouldn't be bad to have a better third party tournament scene.

agreed but this also involves fans actually paying respect to B tier leagues and watching/supporting them instead of making memes about how they're bronze leaguers

I mean, it's not like cheesadelphia gets great viewership according to fuzic. It seems to sustain with live attendance and sponsors so random internet people making fun of it doesn't really matter. Seems the answer for the third party scene would be to focus on sustainable local events (paid for with player fees and spectator fees etc.) and let it grow from there. If enough of those grassroot events occur maybe we get picked up by one of the existing large circuits or Blizzard helps the bigger local ones grow more with seeds and such.
