By Alex Chen | January 01, 0001

A short line, mind you. Just three dudes. But a very heroic line. It’s no secret that StarCraft is very much a thing in South Korea—and has been for some time. So it should not be surprising to see some of the country’s StarCraft diehards already in line for the game’s upcoming expansion(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); https://kotaku.com/why-is-starcraft-so-popular-in-korea-5595262 These three fellas were go rummy complete strangers until they all showed up, days early, at the venue in Seoul where the Heart go rummy of the Swarm‘s launch event will be held on March 12. The expansion pack will also go on sale there, and according to Blizzard, there will be 2,000 collector’s editions available for purchase. The high number reflects how Blizzard underestimated the overwhelming demand for collector’s editions during the Diablo III launch event. Before the launch event on Monday, the same venue is holding the Global Starcraft League finals on Sunday. Guess they’re first holy rummy in line for that, too!
