BTSL: Vancouver (Ticketing)

We&#39;re going to be putting every dollar raised into improving the tournament, whether it&#39;s something obvious like boosting the prize pool, or subtle behind the things like buying production lunch. To be clear we already have the money to make this tournament happen, additional fundraising just goes towards enhancing it! That being said, hopefully some of the rewards and goals will make this more fun for everybody to get involved with as well. <img src="https://i.imgur.com/3qkrj1g.jpg" alt=""> <h1 style="text-align: center;">BTSL: Europe</h1>These matches are played on the European server, but open to anyone to qualify (With the exception of those eligible to play in the KR/AO qualifiers below) After qualifiers complete, there will be a day of group seeding selection via stream &amp; voice chat, while a webcam would be preferred, it&#39;s not necessary, however you are required to have access to at least a microphone, and are expected to spend qualifier prize money to buy one if you don&#39;t already have one in order to proceed.Online prize value: $3,440+<ul style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><li>$1,000 in overall prizing </li><li>Top 2 players will receive (up to) $1,000 in travel costs in addition to prize earnings </li><li>$240 in qualifier prize money ($50 for 1st place, $10 for 2nd)</li></ul> Qualifier sign up links:10:00 AM PST // 7:00 PM CEST <a href="http://challonge.com/BTSLEU1" rel="nofollow">EU #1</a> (Feb 14) Top 4 Qualify to group stage<a href="http://challonge.com/BTSLEU2" rel="nofollow">EU #2</a> (Feb 21) Top 4 Qualify to group stage<a href="http://challonge.com/BTSLEU3" rel="nofollow">EU #3</a> (March 7) Top 4 Qualify to group stage<a href="http://challonge.com/BTSLEU4" rel="nofollow"></a><a href="http://challonge.com/BTSLEU4" rel="nofollow">EU #4</a> (March 21) Top 4 Qualify to group stage<h1 style="text-align: center; ">BTSL: Korea + Asia</h1>Korean Players are welcome to play in both qualifiers and earn prize money for both, but must choose only 1 to compete in for group staging.
