So hyped for this, gonna practice a good amount for it and ditch practice for ACL

Hopefully this brings back the older players, $2000 prize pool is a lot!

Big $'s!

Japan and India should really have a qualifier spot/shared one, as they have been flying the SEA flag in numerous tournaments, including wcs. And have more active players.

Something like:

Malaysia + India
Thailand + Japan

Quick Comments

Elusory:

India's already included in the Open SEA qualifiers

just back to sc2 and really want to join this yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Seriously no ANZ?.. I hope this has something to do with ANZ having its own ESL tournament.. big proportion of the SEA/ANZ player base is ANZ as are a big proportion of the viewers...

Don't understand why you would marginalise your audience like that? Hopefully there are ANZ tournaments sometime.... ESL has really let me down - continues to have us with Korea for IEM qualifiers and now this?.. ~_~

Looks awesome! Will be some good games.

Also I don't know why people are upset at ESL... sounds like it is

No Australia or New Zealand... the biggest exporters of WCS representatives from SEA. Not sure of the reasoning of this - good luck, Asia, have fun.

Yeah seems stupid imo... it actually hurts the competitive credibility of the tournament not having ANZ players represented.. Gratz Ender, Blysk and Demi.
