I highly doubt it. Blizzard might have paid their travel expenses like they do for all player but they do not pay them to compete. They never pay players to do showmatches. The reason they are not in the tournament to begin with is because they did not qualify for it.


You really think Boxer would travel all the way down to the US just to play a showmatch, just because he's getting paid travel expenses? ... Blizzard knows how important SC/BW progamers are to SC2, I have no doubts that both him and HopeTorture are getting paid appearance fees.

and is it just me or was it a little quiet around [image loading] DeMuslim lately? i haven't seen/read much about him during the last couple of weeks.


Im REALLY hoping he is ready to surpise the world ^^. His play in euro-tournaments has been so origional and smart, but so 'underground' in terms of exposure.

I just hope that he comes out with some sick mid-game banshee play that nobody outside EU has encountered or knows how to beat :D

Nobody would be surprised by Demuslim doing good. He is considered by some to be the best European Terran. Although I believe he might have problems with Zerg after the recent changes.
His exposure is not that bad either, otherwise he would not have been invited. He just doesnt play all the small 100 euro tournaments, which is understandable.

Off-season = best season

I can't express how excited I am for this. I'm rooting for my NA players, I really wish Idra was representing us.

Looking at the lineup and kinda stating the obvious, Korea has the strongest players. Should be close

Wow, huge letdown imo. If Blizzard wants to invite players, they should invite everyone, or invite one player per server, and let the other one earn it through qualifying tournaments. They can't do both.

Honestly, how can you take a player like SeceCT, who a) isn't american/canadian and b) got slaughtered by IdrA (a player who is actually american, not Korean, contrary to popular belief). Blizzard should invite players who best represent their game's fanbase, ie players like FruitDealer, IdrA, Boxer, etc. who hold the vast majority of fans of the game. Sure they invited players like TLO, DIMAGA, etc. but they missed players in favor of others who are "meh."



The player list is solid. There are no "meh" players. The ONLY problem is that Idra absolutely deserved a spot over somebody.


as far as i heard, IdrA declined his invite caus he wants to focus on GSL

why both people here and on bnet thinks that Blizzard didn't invite him is beyond me, they know he is a powerhouse, and one of the best players in the world

i was not invited

Although Select rolled over Huk and Kiwikaki, Genius is on a different level. yes he lost in ro64 last season gsl to cheese but I don't think he would make those silly scouting errors again.

Does that have anything to do with GSL and/or you commentating at GSL?
Or did they just literally snub you for no reason?

Those who were going to Blizzcon got the GSL matches moved to 1. and 2. day so they could go.


Dont understand why they dident invite IdrA...?

Not all of them on this list is even that high in ladder.

Why hasn't Sen tried to qualify for GSL, that guy is a baller he could make it top 4. I think Idra should of been invited, but with the quality of players and a boxer cool showmatch, you cant be that upset.

Being a Zerg player myself, I am really excited to see TLO playing as Zerg. Best of luck I will be cheering for you!

I checked some of your games where you played as Zerg and I have to admit you have are a very solid Zerg player. Like Husky said, you really put the 'fun' in 'fungal growth'.

Good luck again, and if you read this : I hope you get to switch to Zerg eventually... (a man can always hope!)
