Thanks to everyone who came to the NASL finals last time and I hope to see you guys here :>
I'd also like to bring up that the GSL finals for October are going to be at blizzcon, THIS IS HUGE for esports in north America and I will for sure be hosting a viewing event in Toronto!
I'll keep you guys updated with future tournaments and the GSL event.

Awesome. I just moved here a few weeks ago and I heard Toronto had a pretty active SC2 community. Looking forward to checking it out; hope I can get the day off work to join in on this event.

Aww it is only Sunday? I am coming down to Toronto that weekend from Ottawa to visit a friend, but I am leaving Sunday  . Oh well. I am sure it will be fun !!
|
So there!
as always, i know this will be amazing.
|

Awesome event. Too bad I'm not from Canada but this is rly good if you wanna promote E-sport for the mainstream audience. It's like gathering up to watch a sport event such as Ice hockey or Soccer!

It's better than watching hockey or soccer  The difference is - when you watch these sports you have 2 "camps" rooting for different teams. Here first come cheering for the GAME and the SPORT itself and then for the players The feel of a community is like nowhere else when you end up in the bar with fellow SC2 fans watching your favorite players battling it out.

These are really sick events.
Simple truth if you even know what tl.net is and you can get to toronto on the 31st there is literally NO reason to not show up... money? just chill. Shy? Trust me you can fit in here, 100%. Underage? no worries just buy coke (you're not the only under age there) Not sure it will be fun?... WTF? dude your at a bar... surrounded by sc2 fans... either one would be fun but both combined? you can't lose! (unless you idra... muahaha -no no big zerg love)
Thats true ice, plus where else do you find a crowd of like minded people who are all awesome to chill with.
Also, let me you tell you this, are you one to those looking to learn and move up the ranks in sc2? there are some sick skilled people that show up to these events, there is no better place to find a practice partner than one of these events!

There is absolutely no way in hell that I will miss this. I've missed too many events recently to not come to this one.
Bring it on!
|
Perfect timing. Flying into the city on the 29th to visit some friends and family for the first time in a few years, and I'll try like hell to haul some of them down to the venue to check it out :D
|
I'll be at this one for sure, maybe this time the finals won't be ruined by 45 minutes of Kpop, damn GSL.

Well said, I really relate to what Ice said in this! You really look at the people around you and are just happy to be enjoying the awesomeness that is the game!

not going to lie part of the fun of soccer events is stealing some douchebags scarf...
but at the same time sc2 is all joy and 0 bm... it's amazing even people like combat-ex are cool dudes in person... we only rage online

Awesome, i'll be there ^^
|
probably will be attending with some friends
|
Anyone from Montreal wanna drive for this?
|
I'll go depending on the weather. It will already be really hot with all the people there, and if this heat wave keeps up all week, it'll be unbearable.
|
