On September 17 and 18, eight of the top StarCraft II players from Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia will gather to compete against one another in the 2011 regional Battle.net Invitational tournament. They'll be fighting it out not only for their share of a $13,000 USD prize pool, but also for an invitation to represent their region in the 2011 StarCraft II Global Battle.net Invitational held at BlizzCon on October 21 and 22.
Look out for profiles and interviews next week to learn more about the invited players!
Keep in mind the nGen players listed in the Battle.net blog are now part of Team Xeria and this post acknowledges that accordingly.
great news!
p.s. is this an online tournament or a Lan? considering the players that qualifed are
1x QLD, AUS
3x NSW, AUS
1x ACT, AUS
1x VIC, AUS
1x NZ
1x Thailand
Id assume Australia (and Sydney considering its in the middle of these 4 states/territories where a whooping 6 enteries reside would be the likely venue? KEEN AS to be at this event, would pay to spectate no joke
Xeria Fighting!
Also is it possible to get a name update? :P
Done. I've added an extra line of information to the OP to avoid any of the confusion DoX was talking about earlier. Gogo Xeria fighting! Good luck to all participating!
Err, it links to TLPD which uses different ID's anyway...
The original post directly links to their battle.net profiles, since those are the names they qualified under (just like the Blizzard blog), but it looks like people have gone ahead and edited my post anyway.
