StarCraft II at the Summer Championship will be broadcast on majorleaguegaming.com on four live streams this weekend, August 24-26! The action kicks off at 5pm ET/11pm CEST and will run straight through Sunday. The top players from the MLG Summer Season will be joined by a massive Open Bracket full of talented competitors, all looking for their share of fame and $76,000 in prize money.
The following is the full lineup of players, for both Group Play and the Open Bracket. Because of scheduling challenges that would place undue stress on the players, we regret to announce that KeSPA pros will not be appearing at the Summer Championship in Raleigh. MLG’s partnership with KeSPA is ongoing, and we are continuing to work together in order to strengthen eSports and the relationship between Korean and Western StarCraft II. KeSPA players will be participating in future MLG events, and we will be bringing you further details about this and other joint initiatives over the coming months.
Will Taeja triumph again, or will MarineKing make Raleigh his third victory? Will this be Stephano’s time to nab an MLG Championship, after so many close calls? Will a relative unknown storm through round after round on a run for the record books! Watch this weekend and find out for yourself! The Red and Blue streams are free in standard definition. To get the two Premium streams, watch all streams in ad-free HD, and get DVR functionality and near-instant access to VOD, upgrade your experience with an HD Pass.
The MLG Summer Championship isn't the only StarCraft II event happening in Raleigh. The North America Finals of the WCS will be taking place at the same time; many players--including Huk, Idra, Nony and more--will be competing in both. Get full WCS info, including the lineup and schedule, and get hyped for a double dose of world-class StarCraft II! |

| Well, that's a bit disappointing. This MLG went from "must watch" to "might watch". Last edit: 2012-08-23 00:21:57 |

Sure MKP is going? Guy plays like OSL on Weds? And DeMuslim as of yet hasn't left England, even though i guess he could comfertably leave tomorrow and be ok to play Friday xD
Group Stage annoys me with the calibre of players though  But still i look forward to it 
Same with Thorzain come to think of it, he has his UP&DOWN matches to play after MLG? He will be playing Tuesday (i think)Last edit: 2012-08-23 00:27:19 |

| I thought NonY said he was only going to focus on WCS @ Raleigh instead of MLG for this weekend? |

Seed 3 & 5 and 4 & 6 together. Why?
By any logic, 3 & 6 and 4 & 5 should be in the same groups. This is an disadvantage to seed 3 compared to seed 4. It makes no sense. |

WTH are there players seeded in groups that i have never heard of?
Nothing against them (they are probably all good players) but they will gert slaughtered by the top players.
So much talent in the openbracket. Such a shame that the left seeds were not given to the highest open bracket finishers. They would deserve them because they would have earned them by defeating a lof of good players in the open bracket.
Rapes incoming! i predict 0:5 for several players in the group.Last edit: 2012-08-23 00:35:18 |

| Can see that kespa takes this partnership seriously. Would have been quite difficult for them to delay osl by one week so their players could attend this. |
