| omg, visa problems here we come -_- |
hard region for EU teams...  |
| I agree with #1. More like, hard region for any team not in the western hemisphere. |
| :| |
| sucks |
| O: too far away TTtxd |
| 2010 still far away, teams might as well start working for their visa hahaha :) |
| haha all the asians/east europeans are screwed |
| Sounds nice! :-) Good news! |
| is there DotA? |
| yeah will there be dota, is the question.. |
| Lets see... Everyone is ofc a terrorist in USA so i guess Usa vs Usa inc.. |
| havent they learned anything? SEATTLE? Where no one attended? Where the show was empty? ........................ . . . An european country wouldve been better, they have a more integrated gaming culture. |
| fukin hell this is so stupid |
| Next time Europe pls. Or korea! |
| IT WAS IN MONZA IN 2006? WHY DIDNT I GO FFS. Che scazzoooooooo |
| Think in Germany is the best location second korea but usa sux ... |
| Well... bad news imo :/ As many people have already said, VISA problems will he a huge ERROR HERE |
| it`s in usa couse sc2 is coming i think t.t |
| USA bad :( |
| USA IS NICE! GOOOOOOOOOOOOD |
| what WCG without the org SC:BW :( |
| sad for chinese players and hard to get visa |
| i wonder w3 would remain as a main game in WCg2010 |
| This is even more expensive trip than to China. Really so few countrys could attend ..... |
| There will be dota only if icefrog create an independant game that doesn't use the warcraft engine. |
| LOLOLOL @ all the haters listen nerds USA is amazing and wcg and EVERYONE knows it.. rather u dont want to admit it ~ were L33t |
man why not midwest US, this is so far away!  |
| Why not in EU :(( |
| LOLOLOLOL @LzGaMeR no offence but that is what i would expect a typical US response "Who cares what suits everyone else, do what WE want and fuck you were awesome" etc they said nothing about the USA being a shitty place, only a shitty place for this and i agree, many players wil fail to get a visa which is a shame imo Flame me all you want about USA being awesome blah blah blah but im still right |
| ohh this is a big set back to many of the teams outside USA.. T.T gogo visa~ |
| Germany the best! |
| sweden would be really nice |
| #30 +1 |
| LOL They wont have DotA I guess unless Valve puts in some money for incefrog into WCG... Hope their is DotA . It would suck a lot if there is no DotA next year  DotA is one of the top competitive games now ... who dont want to go to USA for WCG ? USA USA USA  |
| Europe would be the best host,not USA,so far and expensive for many people.... |
If sky's visa was not refused in 2004,Sky would have got 3 WCG Champion titles.  |
| YES, WCG in LA w00t I'm live like 20 mins away from their haha. |
| I regret I didn't went to Germany to watch WCG. =/ Hopefully it will come to Europe again. |
| #39,Yes,me too. I prefer WCG in Serbia hihihi |
| ill see you all there :D |
| I don't think they would host it in the United States for a third time in 10 years if it hadn't been extremely successful. Getting a visa to the United States apparently hasn't been THAT hard since they've hosted WCG twice there since September 11, 2001. GL HF, and this is extremely exciting news, I actually may attend. |
| There are a lot of amazing country why again USA t.t |
| America too far -_- Why does it not take place in Vietnam |
| LOL @bridtank... that is a typical ignorant opinion of what Americans are like, mate |
| Is it really that hard to get a Visa? |
| Come to UK please ! |
| They should have it in like montreal or toronto in canada. We are a lot more inviting towards foreigners and i think they would get a huge showing in a place like toronto cuz like 6 million asians live there lulz. |
| Hmm im from USA but id have to say i disagree with it being in USA. The european community i beleive is much more popular in the gaming scene then USA. USA just has a bunch of halo kid nerds. By the way, why is it so hard to get a VISA? Just curious. |
