That's the whole point of having a manager, getting you were you're supposed to be if you don't get in on the first place.

What ? Choosing people by their WCG performances is rather dumb and inefective in this case. Atleast Mondi and Nony got invites.

Is Testie even playing starcraft anymore ?
SonuvBob: Yes, the majority of TL is college-aged, and thus clearly stupid.

Jeeeeesus christ, please tell me you are joking? That is the WORST way of picking players ever T_T

Oh my god. Have they always done it this way? Because IEF usually has solid invites..

Yes he is. 2 previous accounts with multiple warnings and temps. I think he collected 9 or 10 bans on TL in total. He is not really harmful though, just weird.

Well to be fair, Strelok, Nony, Mondragon, Cloud and Draco rock, Horror and Castro aren't that bad either, and Testie is always invited to such tournaments. These players should be able to produce decent games for sure. Of course we would have preferred names such as White-Ra, Dreiven, JF, Idra, Brat_OK and Dinot over some of the lesser players, but really the lineup does include some stars as is.

Imho, White-Ra should be autoinvite to such an event... . He never fails to deliver at such tournaments. Some of the names on the list are so far from the current top foreigners it's sad.

Nevertheless good luck to everyone.

Yeah you're right...since the foreigners are underdogs, why even care that IEF's selection process was total garbage? It's not like we care about game quality or rewarding the best, most dedicated foreign players.

Oh and also, we should cancel the MST and OSL prelims because Flash and Jaedong are just going to win the Starleagues anyway. We can emulate IEF by selecting their opponents randomly, and thus save ourselves time.

wall of what?;d


Is there any source onto that?
Also how comes the players don't know about it theirselves, I doubt this stuff would be released if the players didn't even confirm ..

Everyone else seems to be a top tier place, except BrooD (very good player, but not as "good" as the others.

CastrO seems to be on the top of his game recently. NonY and Draco will have a small return in Korea, looking forward to this!

Ppl who ask who r those players on that list... Do u even play the game ? Pretty known players in foreing community, and all of those players r atleast B level and can win games vs top foreigners, like ETbrood did at WCG winning Nony.

Nevertheless I would much rather seen better players here T_T.

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.

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.

actually koreans do know about idra and his BM. i met with a korean YGOSU rep at blizzcon and he asked me about my/foreign community's thoughts on idra's attitude etc

also when i said i was surprised that he knew about that, he said its "많이 알려져있어요" which can translate to "everyone knows about it"

Even though the line ups could have been a lot better, I think we'll still see some pretty good games. Nony back in Korea!

edit- Oh damn, they know about Idra? I think that's pretty funny.

I wasn't trying to be "on the cool-kid-Idra-bashing-bandwagon," I was stating what I have interpreted from other people who post after IdrA flames. I didn't say "the Koreans." You know what though? When IdrA gets off calling someone who beats him a "skillless noob" because he can't handle the fact that he got outplayed, I cringe a bit that I'm associated in the same group as him - an American. Yeah, I'm sure he does act well mannered when he loses to his CJ teammates and we haven't seen enough of what he can actually do on the big stage to say "yeah, he's a BM fucker there, too" or "Oh wow, he actually can accept a loss."

Who fucking knows what he'll do in a major tournament with Koreans. The fact of the matter is he's extremely volatile at times and from all that I've seen of him, he can't just suck it up, admit defeat and move on with his life, he has to trash his opponent. Quite frankly, I find that to be a poor reflection, don't you?

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.


how would "we" look like retards? nobody would be moronic enough to flame someone after a loss in some kind of official match. say what you want about FBH, he's just goofy, there's a difference.

lol if your going to post this type of news you should at least link it to its original source, as you can see from this thread http://www.gosugamers.net/starcraft/thread/389482-ief-2009-huh most of the people dont even know that theyve been invited

edit : it seems like the source came from this post http://www.wfbrood.com/xingji/xjnews/xingji_37720.html , but on the ief site theres no news about any upcoming tourney http://www.e-ief.com/en/

I think you are confusing Lucifer with Lucifron, who is invited. Sky is Chinese, so he doesn't need an invite. I don't know about Moon and ToD, they should probably have been invited.

u know jackshit about wc3 then lol


Thats right lol why would i know jackshit?

Anyways I don't think many of those wc3 guys are very oldschool because I remember quite a few names from before that game got devoured by wow and dota

Hmm if they are gonna pick a Bulgarian it should have been Lamer , he won WCG Bulgaria last year , even thought he didn't do as well in WCG finals as Masscata did . Thought Lamer is inactive as always when there are big events like WCG Bulgaria he normally brings his A - game and wins it . He's been a regular in WCG grand finals for some years now also he has good TvZ from what i've remembered . I'll be cheering for Masscata , even thought i don't like our protoss line - up and protoss in general .

In IEF, foreign means nonkorea and nonchinese

IEF is arranged by Chinese and Korean government...It used to be Korea-China esport War, anyway this year they just wanna few foreign to play also

total facepalm.
the company that went bankrupt is ESWC not IEF.
IEF is a joint venture between korea and china.
literally cannot go bankrupt since it's run by both governments iirc.

*Kick*
So it's October and I know a couple other people that know they are going to this. I'm going to assume I have been bumped off the list but it would be nice to have a heads up for that. Like, "you've been replaced"
"why?"
"because you don't play anymore and are a faggot"
"oh ... I didn't need that last part but ok, thanks"

They may have figured out that you play HoN nowadays instead of SC.
Any word on whether that list is really really final? Wondering how many people they've actually contacted, given the lastest posts.

Also, serious Rek? D=
