Also, @greycubed, you have to be in Korea to be invited as far as I know. | ||

Huk's amazing and Ret may be deserving but otherwise I would have liked to see more of these players so we'd have a good chance of foreigners working up to Code S and sticking around: http://gosugamers.net/starcraft2/rankings Anyone know if WhiteRa refused or something? He's winning everything lately. Even assuming there were more deserving players available, the next GSL begins in two weeks so it would have been quite challenging to get the players there in time and allow them to have time to prepare. Furthermore there'll be 7 (I recall?) main tournaments this year so plenty of opportunities to invite other top foreigners. These other foreigners haven't already invested months into qualifying so while you may argue some of them could have been more deserving based on results, Huk/Haypro/Ret have sacrificed a lot to participate. They could have been in Europe/NA instead and winning/doing well in all these tournaments. | ||

I, too, hope he keeps up the practice in his spare time, as he might get lucky in a future GSL (although it will get harder). I really appreciate his insights, and humour, which wouldn't be the same without his high level of playing experience. You'd have to be on something pretty heavy to even begin to think that ARTOSIS of all people would ever stop playing Starcraft. | ||

Plus, with so many foreigners, next season will probably be the best ever! It's a great time to be a fan. | ||

So far we have. Don't know everyone's races so if anyone can help out.

And Curious is in StarTale. MvPDog, oGsSuperNova, ZeNEXSakura (aka Destination) are all Terran players (in case people were wondering why Terran didn't even have half of the qualified players, now they almost do  )Source: http://www.playxp.com/sc2/news/view.php?article_id=2583487 (Translated page w/ Google Translate) On January 31 2011 01:58 shannn wrote: I'm pretty sure now that TL is sitting at 8th place since SlayerS team lost 1 player last GSL in the ro32 of code A. Meaning if GOM does not maintain the 8 member minimum rule. TL will participate in the GSTL. I hope GOM doesn't maintain this and thus we can see a foreign team in the GSTL. Should probably sent a mail and ask for this clarification. Not quite, 2 players qualified from SlayerS: Cchap Seung EU and Alicia. Combine that with YuGiOh and LegalMind (who might even get back into Code S) in Code A and BoxeR in Code S that would be 1*1.6 + 4*1 = 5.6. Liquid has 1 Code S and 3 Code A, so 1*1.6 + 3*1 = 4.6 Close, but not quite. | ||
