The Battle Net World Championship is one of the biggest tournaments in Starcraft 2 organized by Blizzard. There are several qualifying stages set in order to provide a global competition involving all the best players in the world to determine the world champion this year.

This global competition is divided into 4 stages: national qualifications, national finals, regional finals and finals. Each participating country will run qualifications and a national final to determine the players that will make it to the regional finals.

We will keep you updated with the stages of the tournament, last weekend the Polish, Belgian and Dutch national finals took place.
