It's announcements like this that make me want to forget all the wrongdoings of iSeries in other games and attend. Maybe if I get to play Totalbiscuit and dApollo like a pair of conga drums.

GL to those who attend!

Looking forward to it. It's unbelievable how many awesome tournaments take place resently.

Also IPL 4 will be even better than IPL 3 since the community saw how well it's produced and hopefully next time the crowd will be bigger and more hyped up

Announcing this so late and doing it on the same date as the biggest tourney of the year (Providence).. This would have been a fine tournament to participate in. Unfortunately everything is booked for Providence.

I don't feel that there will be too much overlap between providence and this qualifier, since many players in EU are unable make the trip to the US. I feel that this qualifier is more designed for any up-and-coming EU players to have a chance to make a name for themselves.

Nevertheless, IPL4 needs more hype, which is ironic because IGN is a media company.

Edit: Whoa, first day on TL and I got quoted by TotalBiscuit. Awesome!

This is what I would think/hope as well. It makes a lot more sense to come to IPL in the UK for many of the Europeans, flights are cheap, the place is fairly accessible and the potential payout is good.

Yea most of the best EU players wont goto Providence anyway so dont think its a problem it overlaps.

But yea really like this idea by IGN to make region qualifiers for the main final very cool
