Edit: Also I assume the "America" or "USA" one includes North and South America? Liquipedia Trial Staff | [20:41] <@tofucake> but if cloud to butt rears its ugly head again the block goes back on

You're not but breaker must have just skimmed through the post





The event is held 1 week before Blizzcon so wouldn't have made it very awkward to give it WCS points.





As for the Australia/SEA question, Australians can only play in the Aust qualifier sorry.

My bad. A guy who is a caster here in Taiwan, and a full-time employee of MSI told me this. He told me, "December." but he's probably not in the planning part of this. My bad.

Updated APAC dates

That's good, since it was kind of conflicting with the TWOP qualifier, tho July 10th is the Final Asian qualifier for IEM Shenzhen, so I guess 2 of the chinese players will have to do the 11th qualifier instead.
