$100,000 StarCraft II WCS European Finals 25-26
The StarCraft II World Championship Series European Finals this weekend!
Are you ready? The two days of WCS (StarCraft II World Championships) European Finals are about to kick off (25-26th), one of the most anticipated finals of recent times. With organizer ESL's world class entertainment values and some of the most charismatic and skilled players on the planet, this is one you don't want to miss!
Are you feeling it? The feeling of epic StarCraft games to come!
Hosted by reigning rock, paper, scissors champ Paul 'Redeye' Chaloner, the broadcast will be kicking off at 12:00pm BST, that's 7am EDT. Don't worry, we won't judge you if you're not so enthusiastic about getting up at 7am on a weekend to watch StarCraft. The videos will be available thereafter on this convenient ESL page.
And if Redeye isn't enough Britain for you, renowned (and hilarious) Englishmen Shaun 'Apollo' Clark (right) and James 'Kaelaris' Carrol will be commentating the games once again. However, it's not all fun and games in the ESL studio tomorrow, the final 8 players will compete for $100,000, with $20,000 going to first place. The top 5 finishers will be going through to the cross-region WCS Season 1 Finals in Seoul, South Korea on June 7-9.
Not hyped yet? Well you should relive the WCS Top 5 plays from last week, if this is your first time experiencing them – boy are you in for a treat!
If the epic commentary of the above video sounds familiar, well that's because it is the famed commenatator Kevin Knocke! This video is the first product of the IPL staff Blizzard picked up after the company was sold off during the IGN buyout. Expect more content like this for StarCraft II and other Blizzard games.
