Woot, great prize pool. 3 times Assembly Winter 2011! Just a shame that you follow the dreamhack standard and only distribute it to the top4 :-/
Noticed that it's just 2 days long, seems a bit short for a 32man groups+playoffs. Games in the group stage are Bo3 I presume?
|
sad to see the tournament starting on the 4th, but i will either try to bring the TL-community a awesome coverage from my visit at the assembly 
Looking so much forward to it. Will be there on the evening of the 4th!

This should be pretty epic in Finlands scale atleast ^^
|
Sick prizepool, only second to Dreamhack what comes to EU tournaments!
Solid list of players already too.
|
Hope Satiini shows up, would be great to see him at an event.
Looks like yet another great lan event, nice pricepool and good casters.
|
I'm looking forward to it - was a blast being at the event at Winter.

I hope some Code B or Code A Koreans come to get some more exposure and money.
|
Wow, Assembly Winter was awesome. It seems Assembly Summer will be three times better. btw, Assembly Winter was where Huk made the infamous statement of having "top 3 control in the world."
|
I hope Nerchio shows up for once ^^
|
really great prize pool. line up is going to be sooo stacked.
|
Hoping Thorzain will be there as well
|
Holy mother of god! I might get to see players like HuK, Ret, Haypro, Grubby, Morrow, Mana and Naama live? And TB and Apollo? (And even more to come) I can get to the tournament location from my home in like 30 mins.. I am so hyped right now ^^
|
I don't want to call the assembly winter best eu event uptil then lol, casters were awful, low prize money, few americans and zero koreans. iem gamescom and dhw10 was imo better.
I'm looking forward to this though, and I'm glad you raised the prize pool
|
Ofcourse I will be there, will be sick cool!
