Not every entertaining game comes from the highest level of play. While North America may not yield players on the same level as the Koreans abroad, we still see players with the potential to become something more. Players that are looking for their chance to break out. Breaking Out has run for four seasons and has seen the rise of players like Kelazhur, JonSnow, Intense, Hendralisk, Arium, and others. Now the fourth Breakout Invitational is here to see who will be the next most likely player to breakout of the North American scene! Who will we be seeing more of in WCS and who has a shot at taking down some of the existing titans we know? There's only one way to find out.
