compLexity StarCraft 2 player Josh “TriMaster” Niven moves to Korea for 3 months to train at the Team MVP house in Seoul. This is his personal blog series from the trip.

In this episode TriMaster does his final vlog from Korea and receives a couple goodbyes.

It was recently announced that GamerUniversity.com and GoSuFireFlash have teamed up to host the the first of eight DotA 2 Open Series tournaments. Featuring 32 teams, the Open Series will feature $150 in prize money plus placement in the eventual Invitational Series.

So far twelve teams have signed up including Quantic Gaming, Team Infused and, of course, Complexity Gaming.

According to the post:

The first Open Series will be a best-of-one single elimination contest, with the format expanding to best-of-three clashes for the Semi and Grand Finals. A seeding system has been touted to ensure that heavyweight teams avoid each other in the early rounds, but it has not yet been confirmed.

While this is the first tournament in the Open Series, GamerUniversity and GoSuFireFlash have some big plans for down the road. After the initial eight tournaments in the Open Series, there will be an eight team tournament (comprised of the winners from the Open Series) featuring a $10,000 grand prize.

To watch the Open Series, tune in Saturday, June 2nd at 13:00 Eastern Standard Time. GoSuFireFlash will provide live commentary, along with Draskyl and TobiWan.

Today, coL.DotA competes in the GD Studios Arena. The GD Studio has invited four teams from around the world to participate. The other teams include mTw, Darer, and Keita Gaming. This should be an interesting showmatch considering coL.DotA2 hasn’t had a ton of European exposure. That said, we are still extremely confident with our squad and expect to see some great results.

All matches will be best-of-threes and commentated by James “2GD” Harding and SingSing. You can watch the matches here or below.
