Korean time is +17 hours if you live on the West Coast (USA, duh)

So basically it will be tomorrow around 5:30PM.

There will be a 8min video

Then some interviews and ProGamer matches

At 7:30 PM there will be a demonstration seperate from the Zerg video I presume

*this is all in PACIFIC TIME*

adjust it for yourselves

You can translate it using translate.google.com

Each proteam is sending a representative who will participate in the demonstration.

MBCGame Heros: PuSan
CJ Entus: Savior
Lecaf Oz: JaeDong
OGN Sparkyz: Luxury
STX SouL: Hwasin
eStro: UpMagiC
KTF MagicNs: Nal_rA
Samsung KHAN: Stork
WeMade Fox: NaDa

I've been watching a lot of pro Starcraft, and I definitely recognize every single one of those names :D

Good thing they are sending the big shots, not random guys.

I hate getting this excited for a blizzard game. I know i'm gonna be waiting a long time but i can't help but be pumped. I guess though i've already been waiting 10 years whats another 1 gonna hurt :(.

Also Nal_ra, Bisu, boxer and saviour > all. Definitely my favorite players.

Edit: and yes i realize 1 year is optimistic at best.

totally didn't know about this so having zero anticipation time is a bonus :D

I'm guessing the video won't be HD though?

Look at the ferocity of the guy on the left... you can see it under his calm demeanor, once the match gets going he turns into a beast.

Can't forget about his opponent though, the intensity of his focus only shows how many years of training has gone under his belt.

:D

Yep. I'd expect it'll run on my Mac just how it is. Just how gaming should be. Thanks, Blizzard!

Nada is the strongest...

It'll be interesting to see what the zerg ultimate unit would be like.

Maybe it'd be a bipedal Godzilla monstrosity with both projectile and melee attacks.

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?

Sarah Kerrigan: Captain Raynor, I've finished scouting out the area, and... you pig!
Jim Raynor: What? I haven't even said anything to you yet.
Sarah Kerrigan: Yeah, but you were thinking it.
Jim Raynor: Oh, yeah, you're a telepath. Look, Lets just get on with this, ok?
Sarah Kerrigan: Right.

Bring it! I'm expecting to be very pleased with anything shown from the Zerg campaign on Monday. I already saw how the Terran and Protoss heroes look in the game's engine, I have a feeling Zerg won't disappointed.
