What is Stamina? Stamina is a new Starcraft tournament with cash prizes open to any players outside of Korea. The tournament will start out with an 18 day ladder based on ICCup. At the end of 18 days, the top 28 ranked players in the ladder will be qualified for the final tournament to fight it out for $500 in cash prizes. Throughout the event there will be in-depth coverage as well as VODs of the best games released.
Stamina also marks the start of a new ranking system for players of SCForAll.com events. A side ladder will be kept to keep track of player's finishes in the soon to be frequent events on the site. These rankings will help to determine invites and special events in the future.
As always, any feedback is greatly appreciated. We hope to start bringing many events to the non-Korean community, and any input you have to make these events better in any way will be greatly appreciated!
