The Kings of the North is a new-old tournament run by ESChamp. We’ve invited some of the cream of the crop for North American talent to come face off in StarCraft 2 and more in Toronto, Ontario in March. We’ll be spending 3 days seeing some of the best competing, as well as hearing from them in all sorts of ways. We’ll be featuring: A Live Edition of StarCraft Jeopardy with Troy Pavlek himself! A StarCraft 64 side tournament. And whatever whacky stuff the players are interested in doing (that we can show on internet TV)!

This sounds pretty awesome. Love the side tournaments. Add a Smash Melee side event and it'd be perfect. The amount of cool Starcraft shit that happens in Toronto really makes me wish I was from around there.

In fact one of the lounge-y rooms will have 2 CRTs for Melee/64's until I get my hands on one to put Melty Blood on, but still.

Stream that shit. I'd probably be really funny.

Seriously though, we'll probably be getting a lot of shenanigans throughout the weekend. Lot of cool plans for it.

Shouldn't this tournament be called "The King in the North"?
|
A little upset you havn't invited ThorzaiN or NaNiwa because, they both went under the nickname king of the north during their respective primes.
None the less, Scarlett is the queen to rule them all.

I am sure there will be some smash sessions happening
|
Naniwa will qualify, I'm calling it.
|
Tournament having "North" in the name without Scandinavian players? pff....
Well, joke aside, awesome idea. Will definitely watch! Go Scarlett!
|
Tonight is the last night to sign up for the LAN qualifier
So if you're in the Toronto Area you need to register
|
All canadians. Only one good player. Well, hoping Kelazhur or neeb qualify then. Also, where the fuck are naniwa and thorzain?
|
Due to the Naniwa and Thorzain thing I've always considered the battle for best in NA to be the war for King/Queen Beyond the Wall and now some politicians apparently liked that idea enough to turn it into a full blown platform, which I personally think is a bit much.

The NA Ladder Hero qualifier is Neeb... good luck everyone else
