Several foreigners have qualified through legit means and stand to be a real force in this tourney, namely SaSe who made the finals of Week #3.

ImmortalTofu Profile Blog Joined December 2010 United States 1124 Posts #14 I truly hope that CoCa is in the same monstrous form he was in when he left.... He had a fairly legit claim to top 3 zerg in the world when he left... ZvP was beastly, ZvZ was decent, and ZvT was finally shaping up with some really solid muta ling bane play. Will be awesome to see :D "Friendship ain't a business deal"

With the TBA spots, does that mean there is still one more qualifier or are all of those invites? That awkward moment when you realize you've cancelled stim/combat shield because you lifted the barracks. | Thorzain Fighting!!!
