I hope OGN manage to sort out English casters before this OSL starts.
Yes it would seem odd to transition to SC2 only to exclude a lot of foreign fans. Many like myself would still watch and be 100% happy with it, but it would still be quite the odd move.

Lots would be happy still I'm sure but I'd likely only tune in rarely.

Anyone want to do any over/under bets on how many Kespa players qualify? I'll go with 5 although it is obviously hard to say and I can only go based on their current form. they are having their own qualifier Isn't it an open style qualifier? Aka anyone who signs up competes against the others? Or are they giving a certain number of spots to Kespa. Pretty sure they are mixed though. It's the latter. There's also a rumor that even dual tournament would be segregated, but we'll see. I think that is in Kespa's interest. You don't want to risk having the GSL players wipe out the Kespa players early in the bracket. It might even be a good idea for them to segregate all the way until the finals. You guarantee a huge amount of hype if you pit a Kespa player vs a GSL player in the finals. And it's much easier for one Kespa player to "level-up" and practice and prepare for the finals than to expect the entire Kespa league to "catch up" with the GSL players. Exactly no one is seriously considering a format like that. It's the exact same argument when Koreans began attending foreign events and it was suggested that they limit the number of koreans. Imagine the collective pitchfork of koreans and foreigners... oh my... Prove it.
The burden of proof falls on the person who said there were "rumors" of such a thing.

Noticed you can't sign up as random though

The only foreigner I see is cArn, along with some guy I've never heard of. I hope more sign up.

Drop out of 2 prelims. Everyone assumes that's what you "always do."

Picture perfect.

I'd really like to see a 12-13 year old qualify. Was it baby that became a hit when he was just 13 -14? He was so fun to watch~

Because members of progaming teams who aren't Masters totally exist...
Well, Eve maybe? I don't know.

I can't wait for this to kick off, having the GSL/GSTL and the OSL/PL; just mouthwatering stuff right there.
