The first week of games will feature the start of the European group stages, as well as the entirety of the Latin America, Oceania & Rest of Asia, and Taiwan/Hong Kong/Macau/Japan regionals. The North American and Chinese regionals are set to begin in week two.

Holy so many Tosses! It’s interesting seeing how many of them are pitted against each other in groups A & B for EU. Can’t believe DH Fall 2021 is starting up soon.

I have to say I find these enormous groups very boring most of the time, I prefer 4 person groups and I don’t think they should ever have larger than 6 player groups

Really looking forward to watching the two groups that have non-protoss matches 😀

Nice groups, I’ll say I would like to see some names I don’t know about. Although I don’t know who Antis and the well named Mysteryman are, hopefully they can pull of an upset or two!

I’m always really happy with this format; I like how the groups develop over a week or two and the players have tons of time to show their stuff.

Why does the region with the best players only have a 4-person qualifier?

With Cure winning the EU ESL Open last week playing cross-server I’d rather give an extra spot to him.

But Korea has 6 spots, not 4

Another snooze fest. This format with a million players per group is so bad and boring :/ Why dont they at least try to make the most overhyped region interesting?
