About

Terran Cup returns to the StarCraft 2 community! First two editions of the tournament were organized by Terran.PL in 2010. The idea of Terran Cup was to increase activity of Polish StarCraft 2 community by hosting tournaments with attractive money prizes and for the Polish players only. After more than four years since the previous tournament, these objectives seem to be still valid as there is obvious lack of local tournaments where talented players from Poland would be able to show their skills.
