GGA #8 to mark the first SEA qualification cup

Tonight we take to South East Asia as they play to find their first player for the GGA grand finals. This cup is the start to a foursome of brackets that will bring us to the lesser known corners of the StarCraft 2 world.

After Korean players, especially those from TSL, have dominated the EU and NA qualification cups and up until GGA #7 took 4 out of the 6 seeds, Krr made a move to balance things out. He beat the only non-European in the quarterfinals, Ranged, and moved on to defeat both Elbegast as well Nimitz, who the Lithuanian Protoss demoted to second place in a PvP final with a 2-0 victory.

So far we see that no NA player has made qualification, leaving the current seeds as a composition of Korean and European players. Perhaps we will see a more exotic Asian nationality be added to that list tonight.

GGA Cup #8: Tune in!
August 1st, 23:00 CET!

Sign up for GGA Cup #8

Thus far, the European GGA Cups have been the only ones to proclaim a non-Korean victor. Tournament organizers are summoning everybody so that a fourth foreign finalist gets the chance to qualify for the final event in December!
