Intel Extreme Masters is teaming up with the Koreans eSports Association (KeSPA) to bring the Starcraft II Proleague to Shanghai. This will mark the first time in eSports history that the event has been held outside of Korea. Some would argue there's really no point in having it outside of Korea as all it's doing is making all it's best competitors hop on a plane, but it is what it is.

Just another thing to look forward to when Intel Extreme Masters comes to Shanghai July 31st!
