I don't really see much of a problem emerging for foreign players having to go to South Korea to play if they're serious and confident in their abilities. If the player really thinks they've got a shot it will be a hassle, but they might be able to get sponsored or muster up the flight cost another way. Serious prize money attracts serious players.
Really excited for this event and I'm really curious to know if Tasteless will be handling the English commentaries. Very exciting times for StarCraft 2 and e-sports in general. |

The term 'monthly' is wrong, but still good to see.
I really, REALLY hate how the prizes are so top heavy - why not make first place $50k and spread the other $30k out among the others?Last edit: 2010-08-05 21:14:57 |

Serious foreigner teams will make the move to korea for this I'm sure, and live in little houses just like the current korean teams, although they'll obviously have much worse living conditions unless they have a great sponsor. Good teams will go there for a month, bootcamp hard all month, then try their luck in the prelims i think.
In any case, I expect to see a few foreigners making a splash.
Maybe we'll see Liquid` out there? |

| To everyone that wants Tasteless to cast. I do too, but I think he will play himself in the tournament, or did he not go "pro"? |

It is possible that he may want to play himself, but living off prize money is not certain, while getting a contract to commentate is. He's both a great player and commentator, but only one of those two choices give him steady income.
Guess we'll have to wait and see. |

That's some crazy prize money right there :o
This is obviously just a honey trap to lure all the Koreans over to SC2. Blizz ain't fucking around 
Can't wait! |
