It's not like they can be up-to-date about who plays on what level on what smurf...they have to go by something, I really don't see why some of you are throwing a temper tantrum over this.

Obviously one could pick better choices, more skilled people for more entertaining games - but damnit, at least be happy that some people in China are inviting a BUNCH of "eurotrash", and not just a few exceptional players like in the past.
Complete the cycle!

good luck etbrood :D

It's sad that wcg canada didnt have BW last yr, or else jf most likely would have been invited (given he won it ofc)

I think all the choices are understandable given they were selected based on WCG performances

I'm sure most ppl don't agree that they're all top level players (I don't either), but results is what matters when selecting i guess

Isn't NonY also inactive ?
Didn't ETBrood beat NonY in a group match at the WCG ?

I recognize all those foreign names but I wish ret was invited also. I have no problem seeing Testie play again.

Do it Testie, don't practice at all before the tournament and then just wreck everyone

edit: and to people who don't know some of the players: None of them are really terrible, I think just Testie/Ace are inactive. ThuocLao represented Vietnam a bunch of years at WCG with okay results and Masscata competed last year for Bulgaria and advanced from his group over Ptak

Seriously I'd have loved to be at the selection meeting for this tournament, how the hell did they miss 4 of the top players.
No JF? No Ret? No Idra? No White-Ra?What were they thinking.

I'm glad, and I'm sure many other foreigners and Americans are too. He's been nothing but a piss poor reflection on an already lowered view of our society. So what if he's in Korea? The moment he loses, we look like a bunch of fucking retards because of one angry white kid.

Yeah the invites could've been better, but we're stuck with them probably guys. They aren't going to change, and all the bitching in the world isn't going to help. Let's just hope for a good tournament and get on with our lives.

there are so many reasons your post is completely retarded, but I'll say only one. do you think IdrA acts like that on the professional stage? do you think he flames his pro teammates in CJ when he loses? obviously fucking not. it's not like IdrA being a douchebag @ TL.net has anything to do with how he is perceived in Korea, it doesn't translate at all.

he's not about to go flaming people in big tournament matches where there are Koreans. maybe IdrA doesn't come off nicely to anybody, but just randomly bashing IdrA to try to be on the cool-kid-Idra-bashing-bandwagon when your posts make absolutely 0 logical sense and you're some random noname is pretty fucking stupid.

what Koreans judge our community based on Idra? they don't even know about the shit he does at TL.net, and Koreans don't give 2 shits about us anyways.
