I'm not sure if the convertible thing is a joke

But still how do I get one???

Am I mistaken or didn't Parting get $25000 for winning last year? Not ~$5000?

Not a joke haha, that plushy is indeed "convertible", slide a zipper at the bottom, pull the inside layer out, a Zergling is now a Baneling.

The prize money was a bit too low. So this makes sense. Thanks for Blizzard.

That was my first thought too haha "So....more money for PartinG?"

Is China the only region with prize money for WCG qualifiers? I didn't see any on Liquipedia.
