Dear GOMTV.net users,

It’s been a long time since we have seen teams fight it out in the GSTL, but the upcoming season is sure to have some of the fiercest battles ever!

In the meantime, we would like to help the time pass with our Free GSTL Pre-Season HotS Showmatch! This will be the first official “Heart of the Swarm” Team Battle! The 8 teams that will participate in the next GSTL season will show off their potential in a “Heart of the Swarm” showdown. Only one team will leave the arena with the prize money of 3,000,000 (KRW) and the rest who have fallen will have nothing to show for their struggles.
