I thought the schedule was tight but not overlapping each other, my bad then.


well artosis is playing so i doubt it overlaps. idra probably couldnt be bothered anymore with ESL itself. there was that incident with the penalty points & ban which left a bad taste in idra's mouth. also, they still owe him a good amount of prize money so maybe he's thinking its just not worth it?


as i mentioned earlier you'll have to be top 2 at iem american finals to qualify for the world finals which has that fat prize pool, or qualify through winning a global challenge (so morrow is the first to qualify for the world final).

i don't know how many global challenges there will be though. idra is most likely going to try and qualify through those.

This is like dry british casting, but with americans, actually works very well.

Suggie goes for the five, but TTone slaps him in the face. That is bm.

There are no more qualifiers for the US. Idra has no way of qualifying anymore.

Carmac has already said that if Idra is owed money from ESL that he should talk to him and he would have could try and help sort it out. If Idra did have a beef with ESL, he would have never showed up for the IEM Global Challenge nor try to qualify for the US nationals. People seriously have to stop making shit up. The EMS thing happened a quite a while ago and Idra has not mentioned ESL owing him money at all for a while now.

if i understand correctly, gc cologne, which was won by morrow, granted him qualification to the world finals at the end of the season.

what makes it impossible for idra to qualify for the world finals then? i understand he can't qualify for the american finals but this doesn't matter anymore.

To be fair, IdrA usually talks straight about such things; not bothering with courtesy. If his claim is potential overlap, it's probably true. Just Artosis is being reasonable to participate in the early stages of both events, not expecting too much in advance.

Considering the posts you were quoting were discussing NY, and since the World Finals prizepool hasn't been announced yet, was an assumption you were talking about the NY prize pool

Unless there is another global challenge (Invite). Idra can not qualify for the ESL Global Finals anymore. This was his only chance.

I haven't seen HuK use any other strategy in a LONG time. I think another 6 pool won't be a bad idea.

edit: on the other hand it's LT 4 player map >_>

Could you post what race all the players play?
You should not have to pay to watch the GSL, Proleague, or OSL at a reasonable time. That is not "fine" and it's BS to say otherwise. My sig since 2011. http://www.youtube.com/user/dabom88

it was a good idea, because huk only uses 1 build against Zerg (unless the zerg hatches first, then he 2gates apparently,)


edit:

mutas are a great choice, considering HuK likes to go mass colossi

As GenoZ said, unless there is another Global Challenge, IdrA cannot qualify for the Global Finals. Last season there was only Dubai, so there might not be another one this season, but it's possible.
