IEM Taipei qualifiers revealed

ESL have revealed details on the Asia Minor, Intel Extreme Masters Taipei, and its slot distribution. Renegades and CyberZen have received a direct invite for the tournament, while six teams will have to battle their way through qualifiers.

A total of eight teams will participate in the Asia Minor with two all-expenses-paid MLG Columbus offline qualifier slots up for grabs, as well as $50,000.

Six qualifiers for six different regions will be held in the next three weeks, with each one handing out one slot for IEM Taipei:

January 9	South East Asian qualifier
January 9-17	Indian and Western Asian qualifier
January 11-16	Oceania qualifier
January 11-16	Chinese qualifier
January 16	East Asian qualifier
January 23-24	Taiwanese qualifier

The remaining two slots will be going to two invited teams, which are Renegades and CyberZen, arguably two main favourites going into the tournament.
