Blizzard has set for the 2011 Global Battle.net Invitational and the 2011 Global Starcraft II League October Final to be held at the publisher's annual convention, BlizzCon, in October this year. Both tournaments will be streamed through the event's official website and you'll need only log on with a Battle.net account to view it.
“Between the Global Battle.net Invitational and the GSL October Final, two of the biggest eSports events of the year will be taking place at BlizzCon 2011,” said Mike Morhaime, CEO of Blizzard Entertainment. “We’re looking forward to witnessing the high level of competition between the pro gamers participating in these events alongside our attendees at BlizzCon and the viewers at home.”
Players will compete against one another in Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty, and World of Warcraft: Cataclysm.
