The House of Blues in San Diego, California is playing host to the American Regionals for Blizzard's 5th ladder season. Eight of North America's best are here to earn one of two spots for the Global Final at Blizzcon in August. This is a drastic change from last season, as 16 were invited, and four spots were given out.

Both SonKiE and KiWiKaKi were directly qualified for this event due to their top performances at last season's finals. The other six were forced to qualify through an intense month-and-a-half online ladder season. An interesting point of note is the inclusion of top American Nilknarf, as last season he was unable to participate due to the WSVG finals being held the same date.

The tournament format will be a standard best-of-three, double-elimination with the top two performers earning themselves tickets to Blizzcon.
