I mean, if someone really has a problem with people stream sniping Idra, how known Byun is shouldn't matter at all, and neither should the fact that some of Idra's fans like both players. "Oh, that guy with lots of followers sniped my favourite player once, what a horrible thing to do! There's also that unknown guy whom I kind of like who did it for three days in a row but meh, who cares." If someone is ok with what Byun did but horrified by what Demuslim did, the problem doesn't lie with the actions of each player but somewhere else entirely. | ||

The interview: http://www.gamespot.com/news/blizzard-and-mlg-respond-to-wcs-na-qualifier-concerns-6407510 Why was Evil Geniuses’ Benjamin “DeMusliM” Baker not invited to either the North America or European WCS? Additionally, was there any discussion of disqualifying DeMusliM due to his revealing tweets of results at the end of the tournament? Blizzard, MLG, and ESL jointly analyzed 2012 global performance results to determine invites for the WCS Season 1 Premier League in America and Europe. In the end, DeMusliM didn't perform well enough in 2012 competitions to receive a seed. He's been competing fantastically well on ladder and we hope to see him compete up through Challenger level and perhaps get to Premier League through that route. As for questions about a DQ, there was no discussion about disqualifying DeMusliM for anything he said on Twitter. The tweet: Evil Geniuses @EvilGeniuses 16m We believe that @DeMusliM's 2012 resume warranted a WCS NA invite http://imgur.com/03u7kD4 ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/U4Y34pO.jpg) Benjamin Baker @DeMusliM 6m @EGiNcontroL @EvilGeniuses @MLGSundance It also misses the 2nd place WCG Europe. | ||

Even then, I think he compares favorably to Moonglade, who was part of the non-NA invites. | ||

The only debatable player he could replace is Snute but Snute has won two decentely sized tournaments in the last few months and Demuslim has not so... Fenix, Moonglade, Sen (recently), KilleR, Capoch. Edit: Jusrt realised you meant the Americas as a whole when you said NA, in which case of course these do not all apply. | ||

I think I am missing something :S Emzeeshady was incorrect. There was a group for people considered as from NA, a group for the others. Sen and Moonglade were non-NA, just like DeMusliM, so they could be compared. The other you mentioned were in NA so comparing them to DeMusliM is meaningless. | ||

Thanks, this is the conclusion I just arrived at. Still don't see how mOOnGLaDe's results are better than Demu's though! | ||
