He is also number 1 on the NA server right now. Now lets take like HELLOKITTY, who has won or qualified for NOTHING and is not number one of the NA ladder. Who would receive an invite? Soooo true. Thanks for clarifying that for peaple who don't watch his stream and thus not know his unbelievable awesomeness. | ||

It was dumb not to invite DeMuslim... but either he's good enough to make it through qualifiers or he would have dropped out anyway. It's fine to be mad that he's not getting the free invite, but cursing the day Blizzard was conceived because of it is ridiculous. IMO, he's good enough to make it through, even with the brutality of the Korean stacked qualifiers. By the end of the season, it will all be balanced out, and the only people left will be those who deserve to be there. Either DeMuslim will be on that deserving list or he won't. Getting the invite, at the end of the day, means nothing. It would have been nice and would have obviously made more sense than some picks... but it's not the end of the world. | ||

Some of those NA invites are quite ridiculous. Whoever did them doesn't really know the scene very well at all. Hellokitty? Maker? Capoch? They should've at least hit up Liquipedia to check their achievements - no offence to them, but I'm pretty mad about DeMusliM, not to mention players like Kane, Ostojiy, Hendralisk, MaSa, LeiYa, Caliber.... | ||

http://www.teamliquid.net/tlpd/sc2-international/players/4700_Hellokitty He literally doesn't have a single accomplishment on his tlpd. I don't think I've ever seen that before, no wonder I never heard of him. What gives? Why the invite over Demuslim? | ||

Guys, wtf... he's completely unaccomplished at LAN and the qualifier is actually online, if he's so good at online play, let him prove it and earn an invite. Ok what about Capoche then? I don't even know who he is... Oh and invite a player like hellokitty that does blink stalker allins in all his ladder games? No offence btw.. I'm sure they're much better choices then demuslim. Demuslim is like the only player that can actually take games off Koreans and they don't invite him. Instead they invite some people that are not even pro-gamers | ||

No, he didn't place highly. He lost to Mana first round, beat Krass and Dayshi (neither of whom are invited here) and lost to Nerchio, made 13th-16th out of 32, that isn't placing particularly highly to me, but he still should be invited in NA, yes. | ||

If HelloKitty received an invite over Idra, Suppy for Minigun, I will still be pissed. All three of those players are more accomplished. | ||

I think it's a pretty big oversight, and I'd be pretty mad if I were him. Happy from Team Empire should probably also be invited. Otherwise, it's a great list by ESL.

Yes, LoWeLy is probably the player who got snubbed the most. He did well at WCS, beat YongHwa at WCG and got 4th there, just finished 3rd in Ritmix RSL, etc. | ||

Would make sense if they just for now renamed the regions to region #1, region #2 and region #3 since naming that after a geographical region makes zero fucking sense. | ||

Will be hilarious when they announce the winner of the NA group, as in someone who is NOT from NA but either from Europe or Korea.

I think it was renamed WCS-America | ||
