This showmatch series is mainly sponsored by the wonderful individual Theleo_ua and the proud financial supporter of everything Brood War related eSport.fund! Trovo.live is contributing to the prize pool as well
For what it's worth, some viewers really enjoy watching top foreigners compete on newer/different maps since they already watch a lot of games on ladder or more standard maps by following player streams or leagues that limit the number of non-ladder/standard maps in their map pools.
Thanks for participating in this series. We're really looking forward to watching your 9-game set. It's also really cool how Theleo_ua and esport.fund provided these lucrative showmatch opportunities for our foreign players. Each game/map win is worth $39!
