But yea, I wonder if anyone from Blizzard will comment about why they omitted certain people, they sorta released the ways in which ppl were picked but it's still puzzling :S.

Thats pretty fucking meh.. I mean, I have no problems with allowing playing Koreans in other regions qualifiers, but they should focus the invites on local players to support foreign scene.

Agreed. Polt was better at mostly engagements and desicsionmaking, but not everyone is a "polt"!

Without reading the complete thread. Didn`t some other site just posted that Taeja will be playing at NA too?

He's 83-8 in NA, and Demuslim probably has 3 of those wins.

I know, demu looking topnotch and getting better, hots fits his style. Funny moment when he discovered that gold base of polt in one of the games.

In my opinion... it's a total joke that so many people their got invites, and DeMuslim got left out. He's stuck to have to battle through the Korean qualifiers now, when he is for certain better than the majority of the players on the NA list. Really good job Blizzard!

As much as I would like Demuslim on that list, he does not have a huge success on anything lately according to TLPD.

Yeah that's totally a reason not to invite him, regardless if he's currently one of the top foreigners. Let's base all of the invites off of past results and not current skill. Wait, I have an idea. Incontrol did really good in that one tournament in 2010, right? Why isn't he on the list with past results?

Why is there a need to always throw some mud on him?

Who says I'm throwing mud at Incontrol? He's one of my favorite fucking personalities. I'm making a comparison here, and there's nothing insulting about my post.

The same goes for many players in WCS America, but at least demuslim's skill is well proven.

4 of Polt's 5 TvT losses on ladder are to Dumuslim.

They did. The vast majority of invites went to local players.

No finnish players lol.... Welmu have been top 10 gm for long time now.

Sad to see korean players getting invites
|
I readed eu list again and I realised that they invited most known players...nothing to do with skill...
