GOMtv Release March GSTL bracket

March 15th, 2011

With the GSL March season finals close at hand, eSports fans are eagerly awaiting the next big Korean StarCraft II event. Much like the previous season of the GSL, GOMtv will be holding a special GSL Team League event starting on March 21st.

Today GOMtv released the bracket for this upcoming season of the GSTL. It should come as no surprise that last season’s champions, team Incredible Miracle, have earned the #1 seed and that runner-up team StarTale will be in the #2 slot.

March GSTL Bracket

Obviously almost everyone is putting their money on team Incredible Miracle to win it all. They have two GSL champions in their ranks, NesTea and Mvp. It should be noted, however, that both NesTea and Mvp didn’t preform particularly well during the current GSL season. Both were sent to the Code A up & down matches.

OSPL Spring 2011 Announced

March 11th, 2011

Omega Sector Professional League Spring 2011 has been announced and will take place April 2-3 in Almaty, Kazakhstan. This tournament will have a prize pool worth around $29,000 and will feature games such as Counter-Strike 1.6, DoTA, Tekken 6, and FIFA 11. The major difference about this tournament is that Counter-Strike 1.6 has a prize pool of $4,100 and DoTA has a prize pool of around $10,300. The event has already seen signups by IEM5 champions, Natus Vincere, and so it should have a fairly good turnout.

eSports on Front Page of PCGamer.com

March 11th, 2011

 

Today StarCraft II and eSports got a little love from the “mainstream media” in the form of a front page article on PCGamer.com. Titled “New to e-sports? The 10 best Starcraft 2 matches to watch now,” the article provides gamers with ten of the most entertaining games. The real crux of these games is that you don’t really need to have an in-depth understanding of the game to appreciate what’s going on.

The top ten games include:

  1. IMMVP VS EGIdrA
  2. WhiteRa VS Lalush
  3. LiquidHuK VS mouzMaNa
  4. ROOTKIWIKaKI VS EGMachine
  5. oGsNaDa VS Hitler
  6. SlayerSBoxeR VS FruitDealer
  7. LiquidTLO VS fnaticSEn
  8. IMNestea VS LiquidHuK
  9. HasHe VS NamhciR
  10. SCV Rush
