This year, ESWC decided to move their Grand Finals from Paris to San Jose, California. With the move, they have decided to create a new sub-tournament, dubbed ESWC Masters. They have invited many of the top players to participate in this tournament, which will be held in Paris, France.

The winner of the tournament not only wins a hefty cash prize, but they are also given a spot in the Grand Finals if they have not managed to qualify.

Jae Ho "Moon" Jang is definitely one of those players who will be aiming to win this tournament, as he failed to qualify out of his country. Fresh from his victory in the same city during BWI, he should be a top contender in this tournament.

However, there are several players who would try to stop Jang from advancing to the finals; such as Chinese arch nemesis Xiaofeng "Sky" Li, who is known to be able to defeat him in numerous occasions. Li also was not able to qualify out of his country, so he has as much drive as Jang to win it all.
