It really dissapoints me to not see up and coming top NA players like Quanitc Glon on that list. Instead Korean pro gamers? In NA?


It befundles me that Hellokitty/Capoch got in.... overall the entire process disgusts me.

But it's OK - I now have to do a 256 open man bracket versus a horde of koreans. I'd rather have a chance with a slap in the face than not have one at all.

i remember shitting on your every game we played on ladder and custom games, please don't think you're actually better than me.


I realize this - you're by far better than me. I can't beat you - your strategies are fool proof and micro/macro/multitask completely outshine me in every game we play.

Getting back to reality, why you were chosen over Demuslim is still baffling... not even going to use self as an example since if you purely go by MLG results I only have a top 32 / 2 top 48s, so understandable. Ranking wise. Using results from a completely different game that are over a year old.

Well, maybe because Demuslim is British and should be compared with the 8 non NA invites and not the 16 NA invtes?

I think the main fault of MLG (and ESL) is that they didn't make the criteria of their ranking of players public. It makes you suspect that there might not have been an objective ranking at all. They could have avoided all the speculation by being more transparent about it all.


OR that they're using results that are from a COMPLETELY different game and that are over a year old... that's kind of important too...

It is not and OR but an AND because it is probably a combination of the two, which still has nothing to do with why Demuslim was not chosen over Hellokitty, because they were evaluated in two different groups...

Had it only been the results from the COMPLETELY different game, then Demuslim would had been chosen over Hellokitty.

No Demuslim and qxc in NA is an epic fail. Especially for Demu.

The lack of logic in not inviting Demu is astounding. Oh well

I think the logic here is that he is not American. So he had to compete against the Koreans for invite spots. And its pretty easy to argue that they are better than him.
The strange thing though is that Targa was invited.

I still dont get it why invite players like Capoch? Why is this guy always invited by Blizzard when he is not that good? I dont get it.

NA: Hopefully it's a temporary issue on who is/who isn't in the premier league, since like GSL the worst performers will be replaced over time. I realize it sucks to not be part of the 1st season if you get stuck on a korean in the open bracket, but fortunately there are more tournaments to enter while waiting for the next chance.

Why would they invite so many players in EU nad NA? Would be much more interesting to have more qualifiers. If the big names wants a spot they should earn it. Hopefully, with the GSL system, many of them will fall quickly to Challenger and then to Qualifier league again. That's better that those tournaments that invites the same players over and over again.
