NB.
If anyone wants to know what happened about the 64 Player tournament we had planned, it got temporarily postponed due to time constraints waiting for the Blizzard tournament licence. We apologize any inconvenience but we are very excited to share the show-match with you and many other events in the future. This is definitely a show-match for the records!!
