Last I checked him and Stephano were going back and forth as #1 GM, yeah.

Kind of sad that an NA player like Spanishiwa wasn't invited. He always had a good run and got top30 when the MLGs still had an open bracket. Granted he has been busy with school but he was always a fun player to watch.

I actually fucking LOVE the EU list (although, too bad fraer was not invited, I am sure he will make it through qualifiers though). This is exactly what WCS was supposed to represent, only a few Koreans and a lot of EU guys, who can brainstorm against them and beat them. Coupled with KR->EU lag and the fact that there is generally not a lot of Koreans even if they make it through open bracket, I think WCS EU represents exactly what WCS event should be about and I also believe that including the Koreans will actually help EU scene.
Now it is up to the players, if they want and will cooperate in this, if they will take it as seriously as GSL is taken, prepare for specific map and specific opponent and train hard, I have no doubts that there will be max 1 Korean in Global Finals from EU if at all.
Excited for WCS EU! ![](/mirror/smilies/smile.gif)
(poor NA though :p)

Also, no DeMusliM?
For all we know he turned it down. These are confirmed participates. They may have invited some people who said no.

Really surprised about Snute's choice. And yes, DemusliM is totally screwed. Otherwise the EU list seems fair. Feast, Dayshi, good luck for the qualifiers !

Well this explains Inside the Game yesterday and why he was upset about about the WCS rules. Looks like he got hedged out for an invite by an invading Korean player with better results. This is what happens if you work hard and get a green card, they import someone to take you place.

Am i the only one thinking its weird for koreans to be invited to NA/EU ?

I am so very confused why you and leiya aren't in, but players such as capoch and maker are.

I haven't been following the NA semi-pro scene is some time, is Catz still top tier?
|
No demuslim? Thats the most laughable thing so far. Hes so good at HOTS . Guys like idra will always get auto invited no matter how bad it seems..
|
kinda surprised demuslim didn't get a spot
|
Is weird they invited Capoch instead of Levin...

Yeah that doesn't make sense when you consider NesTea is dropping out of GSL Code A to get a seed into premier NA. NA GM #1 doesn't get a seed into WCS NA, pretty much a joke.

Also the NA list is not as korean-heavy as I'd have thought, that's cool (though the qualifiers will probably be but that's a good start).
