Zealously Profile Blog Joined October 2011 East Gorteau 21345 Posts #1 We are happy to announce that the finals of the first season of WCS 2015 will take place in Potiers, France, during the 2015 Gamers Assembly.

The WCS will have its own standalone stage at the expo, providing a great platform for the top 16 StarCraft II players in the world to show off their skills. The three-day event will start one day ahead of the Gamers Assembly opening day with the round of 16 group stages on April the 3rd and 4th followed by a single elimination bracket featuring the best eight StarCraft 2 players and its grand finals on Sunday the 5th of April.



By attending the Gamers Assembly 2015 in April, you will receive free admission to the finals of the WCS Season 1. The standard day passes to the expo itself can be purchased at the venue for €2, while premium three day passes are available online as "Entrée visiteur - Pass 3 jours" for €10. We are already looking forward to April and hope to see you in the crowd in Poitiers when the stage is set for the WCS Season 1 finals!

Also, why are all events in France not in Paris ? So unpractical.

opisska Profile Blog Joined February 2011 Poland 8848 Posts #11 It's really nice to see that the finals will be at a big event. With good location, essentially free attendance and seemingly infinite capacity (the website lists the supply of tickets as unlimited), this has a potential to be pretty huge. Charging people only 2 Euro for something in western europe will bring you net loss because of logistics, no?It's really nice to see that the finals will be at a big event.

Yes that's probably the reason. And it's a good reason. But Paris is still more practical ^^ Yes that's probably the reason. And it's a good reason. But Paris is still more practical ^^
