Yeah, seems so. So Bomber, Zest, MC and Life? I imagine something similar. I'll be surprised if foreign invites actually go to non Koreans I wonder if they find enough people (4 that is) that even are willing to go to Korea for 4 months. I could imagine a few chinese/taiwanese players would do it, but else? Reminds me of GSL earlier, they tried to get more foreign players too and had that player house, which worked for a while. Well it would be less than 4 months if the players lose immediately I guess. But else, going home after every round sounds a little expensive. State, Scarlett, Snute and Dayshi want to go to Korea. Some players from iG want to go to Korea too.
Snute needs to go to teach the Korean zergs how to play swarm host style vs protoss.

Still dont know, if any player can play Starleague and Gsl at same time. Hopefully no.

No. I will kill him if he ruins all those Korean zergs. Snute needs to be quarantined

Yeah i know, but i mean in 1 season its like u are playing in WCS EU and NA in 2014 at same time, it would be so unfair for foreigners, so it would be only fine if a player can play either GSL or SSL in 1 season. Otherwise the region lock made no sense at all.

But GSL and SSL has no region lock at all! If foreigners feel they are worthy enough, feel free to try.
And if you think this way: total no of points is the same. If anyone can pull a SoO/Zest at WCS Foreign, they can qualify for Blizzcon!

Qualifier - 11am (KST) 2014-12-11 / Live stream at the YouTube Channel
Does that mean there will be no twitch.tv broadcast? That would really be a shame, at least for me and other Germans, since Youtube livestreaming is not available in Germany.

Else simply SC2SL should be short enough and does the job too, or am I wrong?

I wonder where the stream link for this is and how much it costs.
|
Mmmm I'm loving next year's Korean scene.
|
i want consistency more than anything. id feel more confident if this league lasts 2+ years. but its very exciting to see sucha big tourney finally begin in kr, in addition to gsl.
just please dont drop out like osl/ogn.

looks like its gonna be a super sick tournament. Bo7 Semis? whaaaat too based

I'm thinking of a potential scenario with even less from qualifiers starting in season 2, because 28 ppl playing Ro32 won't work if it's single-elimination so it might end up like
potential season 2 Ro32: 4 season 1 quarterfinalists + 12 from qualifiers potential season 2 Ro16: 4 season 1 semifinalists + 8 from Ro32 + 4 global seeds
though, i think why call it Ro32 if you have people seeded in Ro16 which makes Ro32 not a real Ro32.... >.>;;;

Gotta love the horribly top-heavy prize pool (sarcasm).
It's so humorous that Koreans would desire such a prize pool when the competition is so strong and how much luck there can be in SC2. Well whatever, not like it affects me any...

It is also many times harder to succeed in either of the leagues, let alone both. There's a tradeoff between difficulty and rewards, and the Korean dual league system seems rather fair in that light. Besides, anyone who wish to participate may attempt to do so by participating in the qualifiers.
