Star Invitational - StarCraft at its Best
sicPOS \| 6:44 PM on 02.18.2008	8 comments

Gom TV Star Invitational brings us the top 16 StarCraft players in the world. It's a competition to compete for the title of best of the best. For the first time we get English commentary, thanks to Nick "Tasteless" Plott, to go along with these matches so we aren't all left out. Group matches began on the 17th and end on the 20th with the top two players of each group continuing on. Afterwards the bracket tournament will begin. Live streaming begins at 9:00 GMT every morning and videos of previous matches can be viewed here.

It's amazing watching these guys play. Mostly because of all the chicks they have cheering for them.

Don't they get paid an absurd amount of money for playing Star Craft even by practicing and what not?

I just got a brilliant idea. In Starcraft 2, Blizzard should include an self destruct and tell North Korea if they try to develop nuclear weapons they will blow up every Korean Starcraft cd. Boom, stability in that region. Why am I not in the UN.

@Jonathan
it's too bad Boxer was knocked out today. His second loss was rough, he was taken down by a zergling rush.
