The change of schedule doesn't affect the end of the tournament as much as the length. The event as a whole will now only take 14 days instead of the previous 25 days. Each match day was scheduled to only host two games, one from each group, but because of the tighter schedule April 23rd will feature four games, two from each group.

WEG's only schedule concerns have to do with Visa issues. With many players already arriving for the expected initial start date, April 5th, those players Visa's will expire after 30 days. WEG will need to complete the tournament by May fourth so no players have to go home before their Visa's end. No further schedule changes are expected because of those concerns but GotFrag will keep you posted as more details are released.
