The 30 invited players for ClanBase EuroCup XIII has been revealed! It includes some of the very best players from Europe, among them five players from GosuGamers Database Top 10!
This is the first time StarCraft belongs to the EuroCup tournament hosted by ClanBase, who previously held StarCraft events such as Nations Cup. EuroCup is as we have written before a 1on1 league with some of the best players in Europe, where 30 players have been invited, while two players have joined via qualification tournaments. These 32 players have been placed in groups, four groups with eight in each. Below are the full league lineup:

The group stage will be really tough for the players, who have no chance what so ever if they make mistakes. Only two players from each group will advance, and with the player material it will surely be tough. The maps for the season are Arcadia, Gaia, Luna, Rush Hour, R-Point, and Ride of Valkyries. First prize is a total of $600 USD, second prize is $300 USD and the third prize sums up to $100 USD, making it 1,000 bucks in total prize money.
GosuGamers will of course give you bets, results, replays and everything you can wish for regarding this league, since this is the biggest European event in a long time. Matches start at the 1st of May, we'll have the bets ready by then!
Gamesports.de will provide a videocast in German and probably a shoutcast in English.
