[TSL4] Qualifier and Map Information

Text byTeamLiquid ESPORTS
May 21st, 2012 23:59 GMT
  • Qualification
  • Eligibility
  • Dates
  • Maps


TeamLiquid Starleague season is nearly upon us. Starting the week after MLG Anaheim we will begin a series of qualifiers, spread across the North American, Europe, and Korean servers. They will run for five weeks straight, one qualifier on each Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. These will be the same as traditional TL Opens.

The first TSL qualifier will be on June 12, the week after MLG Anaheim and just over three weeks from today.

The opening broadcast of TSL4 Round of 32 will kick off July 28, 2012. We have opened a TSL4 Forum to help begin the discussion!

Qualification
minerals


Here is the breakdown of the 32 player spots in the TSL4:

  • 3 players seeded from TSL3
  • 10 winners of TL Open qualifiers on NA/EU servers
  • 5 winners of TL Open qualifiers on KR server
  • 8 highest placing players based on points from the TL Open NA/EU qualifiers
  • 6 highest placing players based on points from the TL Open KR qualifiers


In other words, 18 players will qualify through the ten NA/EU qualifiers, and 11 will qualify through the five KR qualifiers. Since the winners of the tournaments automatically gain entry, there will be two separate point rankings (one for NA/EU and one for KR) that determine the remaining qualification slots.

Ro3211


Eligibility


All EU/NA players may play in both the 5 NA qualifiers and 5 EU qualifiers (10 total tournaments).

To play in EU/NA tournaments, the player must:
  • Live in North America or Europe; OR
  • Be a citizen of a North American or European country; OR
  • Live in South America or a non-Korean country
To play in Korea, the player must:
  • Live in Korea; OR
  • Be a citizen of Korea
Players who qualify for both must elect whether they wish to participate in the 10 EU/NA tournaments or the 5 Korean tournaments. Those in China, Taiwan, and SEA may choose to play in either the EU/NA tournaments or in the Korean events. Players in South America will play on the EU/NA qualifiers.

Players will indicate which they are choosing simply by entering and playing an event on that server. Entering events on both point rankings will result in disqualification.

Examples, assuming these players wish to participate in TSL4:

  • EG.iNcontroL lives in the United States and is not a citizen of Korea, he can only choose to play in the 10 EU/NA qualifiers
  • IM.NesTea lives in Korea and is not a citizen of a NA or EU country, he can only choose to play in the 5 KR qualifiers
  • Liquid`Jinro lives in Korea and is a citizen of Sweden, he can elect to play in the 10 EU/NA qualifiers OR the 5 KR qualifiers
  • Empire.Violet lives in the United States and is a citizen of Korea, he can elect to play in the 10 EU/NA qualifiers OR the 5 KR qualifiers
  • GamaniaSen lives in Taiwan, he can choose to play in the 10 EU/NA qualifiers OR the 5 KR qualifiers

Sweet, finally more juicy tidbits are revealed. I love that the KR qualifiers are separate, should provide foreigners more chances

The time of qualifiers is pretty restrictive for people living in NA who don't play for a living, most are working at 11 am.

what if, for example, puma visits the NA EG house for a few days - can he qualify through NA that way? or any other korean player like that

Agreed, a bit of variety would have been nice.
Whatever, its TSL4, can hardly complain.

I like this qualification process. Should see a lot of the top talent get through, as well as a decent mix of foreigners and Koreans. Looking forward to it!
