There will be an online qualifier with an entry fee for the 12th and final seat. Details this week.

Trying to think of a format with 12 slots and the only one I can think of is a groupstage of 2 groups of 6 players followed by a 4/8 player bracket?

Or will there be a few byes inserted into the brackets?

Or do I need to wait for details this week? :P

[nirvAnA]

since when have "pro teams" become the only tags players can be associated with? this isnt NASL!

of course pro teams take precedence over clans during representation so deth/pinder/yoon represent their respective teams first always even though they belong to both but put jim/pig under aLt please.

glade/bielsko being the only players who are truly teamless/clanless. who is bielsko btw?

Theres a few Pro Aussie teams looking at getting into sc2 with a player pickup or 2, if they read this post and see them as unsigned, it gets them noticed.

@nirvAnA, apparently he is some 'scrub' who was a ridiculously low level and managed to go through the adelaide qualifiers. They apparently had cosplayers playing in their event too (it was held during another event that is similar to comicon).
