The road to the OSL reaches the second and final stage next week, with the start of the Ongament Dual Tournament. 20 disgruntled players have dropped from the previous OSL, while 28 players -- both young and old -- have risen from the offline preliminaries, otherwise known as PSL (PC Bang Starleague).
OSL is returning to its storied 16 man format, which means that only 12 additional players will have a shot at achieving glory in the 2007 Spring season. With 48 players in ODT, this means that the format (although undetermined as of now) will produce one "winner" from each of the 12 groups consisting of 4 players each. Hence it is somewhat inaccurate to refer to this event as the "Dual" tournament per se.
The matches will be best of 3's, and this is in fact only stage 1 of the qualification rounds. There will be a 2nd stage where we will see the traditional ODT take place with 6 groups of 4 players each to narrow down the field to 12 players.
The second stage will be from the 18th to the 20th, and 2 groups will play in one day (again, 1 group at 2PM and 1 group at 6:30PM)

There are 22 terrans, 15 zergs, and 11 protosses in this edition of ODT. It is a truely deep lineup of players that are vying for just 12 slots, as roughly 1/2 the terrans, 2/3 the zergs, and nearly all the protosses are battle proven stalwarts of the game.
There will be favorites being knocked out left and right, that is for certain.

-The absence of RLT hints at the possibility of either the removal of the map from the OSL, or a heavy revamping going on at this time.
