what does 'cloaked' mean at the maps
|
Oh wow, very cool tournament. Nice maps and invite list.
Mereel: Cloaked maps hide the winner/loser. They used them for TSL3.
|
One Sheth to rule them all! (wanted to sound legandary :D )
|
Gah sawks this is prolly gonne go together with the TotalBiscuit tourney starting at 18h, really love his commentary! But to much of a fanboy to not watch grubby so ill be there, go grubby, great you doing this for the community!
|
This is gonna be huge, the player list is stacked with pros. Hopefully it will be a huge success.

it means that you can't check the build orders after the game i think

what's that for? many players check replay anyway

Cloaked maps are more to hide who won the game until it's broadcasted to avoid spoilers.
|
All players have received their invitations into the brackets, some are seeded already, rest will follow soon.
Please be aware the seedings might change as we approach the tournament. We start streaming early coming saturday. (15:00 Local Amsterdam Time) Have fun all.
Of course we hope TL will pick up on the streams as well.
