Map pool is a little small though, I expected a little more in terms of maps.



I hope the players, casters and production crew are ready for one hell of a SC2 marathon, a four day event involving three tournaments is just insane 0_o I'm afraid of demented knife-wielding escaped lunatic libertarian zombie mutants

No way DBS goes, he doesn't even have a team (and doesn't play seriously anymore).



Grubby is announced as a caster! He wouldn't be casting if he won a spot in the GSL World Championship team and therefore a spot in IPL 5, so I conclude that Lucifron took his side of the bracket and will play in both IPL5 and GSL WC!



Fucking awesome!

Yeah, I think this is a bit ridiculous. I think the Bo5 + Bo3 from LSC2 was a great format. Yeah, I think this is a bit ridiculous. I think the Bo5 + Bo3 from LSC2 was a great format. TaeJa | Kas | SuperNova | ForGG FIGHTING!

Dodgin Profile Blog Joined July 2011 Canada 38851 Posts #11 The player list for this event is simply ridiculous, and then you have the added entertainment of Code S ro4 and finals.



Then you have GSL World Championship not once but twice, with two different formats.



Without a doubt this will be the best LAN event of the winter season.

Agree, I prefer the new MLG format with 2 separate brackets and a BO7 finals without any advantage for one or the other player.

nah, too little advantage

a bo9 with 2 games up:

-can get to seven games (normal finals length)

-is an equivalent of a bo3 up (2 games)

-WF winner needs 3 games, LF winner needs 5 games



I think that's pretty fair personally? nah, too little advantagea bo9 with 2 games up:-can get to seven games (normal finals length)-is an equivalent of a bo3 up (2 games)-WF winner needs 3 games, LF winner needs 5 gamesI think that's pretty fair personally? Moderator Retired LR Bonjwa
