Introducing our next 2 invites:

Ecko'Probe

#YOP (Year of Probe), when this guy is on, he can and will beat anyone! Has placed 5th twice in recent WCS Qualifiers, won 2 OSC weekly tournaments, including a 2-0 of WCS America R8 Korean Star Ax.Heart in SEAcraft Weekly #4 finals! Would love to add a Rising Star to to his résumé.

Current OSC Ranking: 9th
Season 2 Tournament Championships:

SLCN.Kez

A regular on the ACL circuit, caster, talented writer, and one of the friendliest and longest serving community members, Kez is easily one of the most experienced tournament campaigners going around. His strong ZvZ should serve him well in this tournament.

Current OSC Ranking: 95th

Isn't Arnold a little small to represent Kez?

Introducing our next invite:

ToR'danO

danO was a powerhouse in 2013! He was the 2nd highest ranked Terran in the region, finishing 14th in the yearly OSC rankings, claiming many weekly trophies on his way. Has been MIA a lot in 2014, but will be keen to come out firing in this tournament to prove he's one of the top Terrans, if not players in the region.

Current OSC Ranking: 168th

Introducing our next invite:

AxS.SouL

SouL/AkirA, is one of the most dedicated members in our community! He is currently ranked 2nd in #Dedication (for most games played), up from 5th place last season. Outside of his own practice, Jessie is well known as the leader of AxiS Outsourced, and it's a credit to him that the clan has become one of the largest and most active in SEA. He can often be found hanging around twitch chat channels supporting sc2sea members. This guy has #passion! He temporarily switched to Zerg, but is now back playing his main race, and will be keen to cause a few upsets in this tournament.

Current OSC Ranking: 41st

Introducing our next 2 invites:

SLCN.Peppy

Although Peppy has been around for a while, he recently had a breakout performance at ACL Brisbane, coming 2nd in his group, and finishing in 8th place in the championship bracket! Looks like SEA has another strong zerg coming up the ranks! Will look to continue his good form and take out the Rising Star title.

Current OSC Ranking: 127th

ToR.Pox

One half of the new powerhouse SEA casting duo, Pox has been a high level player for many years. Can beat most of his peers, but so far online tournament success has eluded him. Is in pretty good form atm, and climbing fast towards top 32 in the OSC Rankings, so he should a big chance to take out this tournament.

Current OSC Ranking: 38th

DanO and Pox fanfic cover?

FLuX · Mon, 30th-Jun-2014, 3:55 PM

I'd say this needs a rename to Fallen Stars, but I wouldn't exactly say anyone in this line-up were ever "stars" per se.

Introducing our next 2 invites:

Lobo

Singaporean Protoss who has consistancy been ranked amongst the top 8-16 players in SEA. Very good at executing builds and often catches his opponents off guard. He placed 3rd in the first $350 Rising Star Open Challenge, and has placed 2nd in a Masters Cup. Also has 3 Friday Fun Night trophies! A Rising Star would be a nice addition to his trophy shelf.

Current OSC Ranking: 11th

SLCN.Law

Law (Formally known as Surge) recently came 3rd in his group at ACL Brisbane, and finished in 12th place in the championship bracket! Online success has so far eluded him, but will be keen to make this his breakout performance!

Current OSC Ranking: 53rd

eCKo`ChoboSniper

Very solid Melbourne zerg, who often flies under the radar. Underestimate him at your own peril! As his name implies, he'll pick you off with precision and skill! Recently came 2nd in his group at ACL Brisbane, and finished in 8th place in the championship bracket! In May he all killed Frenetic Array 5-0 (Eros, Wally, HuT, Crimson, + Alopex). If he brings that form into this tournament he will definitely be eyeing off the $'s.

Current OSC Ranking: 99th

JaBiTo

When active, this Filipino Terran is one of the top Terrans in SEA. Last year he finished ranked 26th in the yearly OSC rankings. JaBiTo's probably a little unlucky, often placing 2nd behind ex-teammate EnDerr in local tournaments (who is one of the top couple players in the region), thus being denied some of the credit and recognition he deserves. We haven't seen much of him in 2014, so hopefully he can still put on a show for all the fans.

Our last invite will be announced tomorrow (any guesses?) and brackets posted on Friday

Introducing our last invite:

SYF.FIGHTO

The dark templar protoss of Melbourne - He sort of hides in the shadows, and is rarely seen at lans to date. Watch out if he does attend though, as this guy has proven he's got the skill to match it with the elite! Fighto has numerous strong performances online, including some deep runs in Masters Cups and SEAcraft Weeklies. Won a SYF weekly earlier in this season. Is highly ranked in OSC, and should go far in this Rising Star.

Current OSC Ranking: 18th

Brackets will be posted tomorrow to give players time to research/prepare builds if so inclined.
