all of korean have waited for Boxer's game

I expect to GSL season2 +_+

it's fine actually, didnt even need to reread it.

i totally understand how you feel, like the gsl people were using boxer for promotional purposes. and that to me is disappointing considering what other players had to go through.

Your English is fine. We appreciate any Korean news we can get, so thank you very much (감사합니다).

Very interesting too. So apparently Boxer had a bit of an easy ride through qualification? Perhaps it was just coincidence but I don't really care, Boxer in ro64 is awesome!

Dude has played a LOT of sc2. More games than me. He's top 100 or so in world ladder. It's not a new change. He's been playing sc2. Same with oov, and many others. But, now it's just official hes playing to get to the best.

Search is name on sc2ranks.com he's up there.

maybe they put an easy group. but i dont think they can plan for 2 people not to show up ( unless they faked the registration).

also, julyzerg and moon lost to some low diamond with 50 percent win rate so don't take anything for granted. he took his chances.gratz BoxeR and show us some ( more ) of your magic. I'll be definitely buying the day ticket for his game and if more and more big names show up, i'll probably buy the season ticket

I dont see alot of peoples problem, you want SC2 to develop into a true e-sport yes? It isnt exactly something unheard of these days that SC2 is doing poorly in Korea, the interest is low. And just like SuperDanielMan said, SC2 needs starpower to gain popularity. Even if Boxer got in for free without playing any prelims, it would still be a worthy sacrifice, because it benefitts the game as a whole in the end. He is like the most popular player of all time, fixed group or not, this is very good for SC2, and GOM just sold their first ticket to me.

I watched Boxers games agaisnt TLO and others.

In these games, he lost them all, but he played very well in each game.

He is #9 in KR ladder with like 700 games played on one account.

He is just as deserving to be in R.O. 64 as anyone else there. he is a good sc2 player.

I think he is better than NaDa at SC2 right now.

It's unlikely that they would have staged for Boxer to get two byes. If the word ever got out, the whole GSL would suffer irrepairably. As some newspapers are overtly siding with KESPA and berating anything that has to do with SC2, it would be a media suicide to do something like that.

I don't think anyone involved would risk the infamy, especially when they would have him back next month even if he didn't qualify this season. Ever since Savior, Korean fans are suspicious of anything that even remotely looks like a fixed game.

Lim did get 2 free wins on Ro32&16 because the opponent didn't show up, and for 8, semi and final he won all 6 games. 2:0 x3. Opponents were not like really silver but yeah there weren't any famous pros. But hey, ManofOneway is ranked #9 on ELL ranking in Korea -.- People can't just say it's all manipulated to promote him.

Well, I for one am really happy he made it through. Nice guy as we can see in the TLO and Jinro replay packs.. Hopefully his play will get better once he can really start concentrating on strategys against higher lvl players.

GSL prelim brackets aren't random, it's pretty blatantly setup with informal seeding to help the famous/good players through.

The arbitrariness of it, and the fact that GomTV doesn't officially announce it as policy is sketchy, but in practice the seeding of "better" players is pretty standard.
AdministratorHey HP can you redo everything youve ever done because i have a small complaint?
