Yes but i missed out on it ! Besides that everything SC related is done in Korea. I know most pro gamers would have trouble going out of their way to play somewhere else, but it'd be really interesting to see  | ||

depends who they consider to be "korea's finest". They'll probably pick the biggest slumping names, since the big names that are doing well won't have time - maps are different, and they care more about OSL/MSL/Proleague. Which means... YellOw, AGAIN :D | ||

So what? I think it is not very fair if Draco would play in this Invitational too.. There are many good foreigners. Pj is progamer - as i mentioned. Of course Draco is a good player, but I think its time to give other players a chance. Is it more clear what I wanted to say now ? | ||

Skew due to Uhjoo's post and him asking IdrA / Skew. And Zelotito i'm guessing simply because he's online when he's not supposed to be. It's uncharacteristic of him to be online so much during the middle of the year. | ||

I'm hoping they take like Casy, Jangbi (w00t, but like .01% it would happen ), and Light. These are all smalllllll chances but would be awesome. I'm still going to bet it's Reach, rA, Yellow again :/. | ||

So I was wondering if KTF would be pretty much all the Koreans again. If that's the case, I'd rather have Garim play than any other protoss simply because I haven't see the man play in YEARS. He wins 50% of practice games now which also means he's somewhat coming back into modern times. Boxer is the other one of course, if they can somehow squeeze him out from the AirForce but that seems so unlikely. Yellow because.. I like to see Yellow win something, and that's rare nowadays so this is a good chance. Also I'm very worried about maps... I hope they pick some really nice exciting maps. | ||

Draco - see if he made some progress Boxer - very little chance but still I'd like NaDa - sexiest player on special events with foreigners ;] Super - top foreigner who i dont see much of YellOw - storm zerg matches with special events ;] Nal_rA - flower toss fighting ! UpMagic! and ofc top3 hot players atm: sAviOr, Bisu and Iris. dunno who to pick from foreigners, before WCG most is inactive, dont want to see LX and PJ again. hmm maybe iNcontrol ;-] | ||
