Update: Players who declined and up-to-date point rankings, Players who are tied in ranks outside of Top 64 will have Wild Cards to join based on this:

+ Show Spoiler +


The announcement for the GOMTV Super Tournament taken from the gomtv.net site with some alterations:


"Dear GOMTV.net users:

What could be more super than a GOMTV Super Tournament?

Do you remember the 3 seasons of GSL Open Season from last year?

Fierce battles erupted here and there thanks to the Ro64 tournament format following the open preliminaries.

Super Tournament will bring you that exciting moment once again plus more.

Code S and Code A players will meet on the battleground and not at the comfort of Up and Down matches.

Just like our World Championship, Super Tournament is a regular tournament featured as a part of our 2011 GSL Tour.

Date : May 23rd ~ June 18th, 2011
Location : South Korea (Mok-dong GOMTV Studio / Venue for the Final TBA)
Qualification : Top 64 players in terms of 2011 Regular Season Point Ranking
Prize Pool:
[image loading]
+ Show Spoiler +


Tournament Schedule: (Takes place between May and June)
[image loading]


Format:
Ro64 Full Tournament
Ro64 ~ 16 : Bo3
Ro8 ~ Semi : Bo5
Final : Bo7
Thanks!"

GSL League Rankings for Top 62 (Taken straight from the 2Ji_Hwan's GSL link to a recent update for more information on how the rankings work, please consult the Liquipedia II GSL Ranking page):
Ranks 1-33:

Ranks 34-68:

Ranks 70-76:

It will be incredibly exciting to watch the Code S and Code a player match ups and all of the inevitable upsets! Memories harken back to the era of impossible Zerg Grand Finalists: (Z)FruitDealer from GSL Open Season 1 and (Z)NesTea from GSL Open Season 2. However, let's not forget the mastery of (P)oGsMC shown in the Season 3 Grand Finals!!

Foreigners, fighting!

The Grand Champion wins 137 640 USD by the current exchange! (Google exhange rate calculator)



Its actually less, not the total 148million 100million for the winnner which is less then 100,000 USD~

Been waiting for this, really want to see some Code A players vs Code S and see who comes out on top because Code A is quite powerful too!

+ Show Spoiler +
^ Prize money looks same as previous open seasons for the top end and slightly more for the bottom end. (currency translations are probably incorrect I didn't bother readjusting them but should give a rough estimate anyway).

Not sure about that, they said the top 64 ranked players in terms of the previous GSLs, so I thikn there may be some that are not currently in any code but will make it in (eg. leenock? etc..)

The sad thing about the prize money is, just for being in the ro32 on this tournament you early 2/3 of the amount the Code A champion recieves :< And the same amount for 2nd place Code A

Ya it's based off of points, dunno if it's been posted by GOM anywhere. So even though leenock is in Code B he's been in Code S and code A for a while and probably has enough points to qualify for this.

ZeNEXLiveForever joined the army, so his #45 rank will open up one more spot, which puts in MVPviOlet and MVPKeen with 130 points each
Idra is still ranked #31, so depending on his participation we will see a tiebreaker for the last spot
Source: Liquipedia (Bomber and Ryung are listed at 130 points, too, but they accumulated more points due to their advancement to CodeA Ro4 this season already)
Edit: Nevermind, I forgot that Keen is also in Ro4 this season, so only viOlet's participation depends on Idra's decision to travel to Korea once again

Yeah it would be. The potential total is obviously way more than the mlg event that occurs in the middle of it. But in order to at least match the first place money from mlg you would have to make ro4 in this gsl tournament. So yeah, would doubt seeing Idra there.
