Good news for the Chinese players! I hope their ladder session isn't nearly as aggravating as mine, and that their banelings disintegrate Terran hope!

It's nice that WoL owners get it for free, but they did have to experience quite a delay in order to get that. Congrats to China on finally getting to play a pretty neat game.

No Global Play...

Well, not surprising but still sad.

Anyway hopefully we'll see more interest for SC2 in the Chinese scene, and more talent grow and develop. ^^
