Like I have said before, we have only invited players who can easily and normally play on US time zones because the entire thing is live. We don't want latency issues or time zone issues. This excludes (obviously) EU players and most of Team Liquid.

Bravo Bravo!
GO GO for a flawless tourney, that all love and enjoy!
The lineup is sick. Of course, a more international "all star" line up would be welcomed, but we all know just how hard it can be to schedule with players on a VERY different timezone (ie; Against TL in.. maybe... the last SGL?) Also.. I would rather not listen to whinging from people from other countries playing on NA server (ie; IdrA in latest GCPL)

All decisions are made "For the greater good" in my opinion, and we're SET for a bunch of epic games!
Particularly seeing how well Faythe is going to fair! Raelcun is a good caster, so I'm pleased to hear he will be commenting! HOWEVER. Joshy is daaaayymmmn baller. He has been playing with picture in picture (ie; watching a drop in the corner, while the front door gets mashed) which adds a good element to the game!
Let Joshy do his thing
Play the games!

Sad that Axslav and PainUser have to meet first round, 2 of my favorite players to watch : <

Either way looks to be a sick tourney, GJ Root!

Also want to see Sheth go far, and every other zerg!!

Hmm, brackets seem majorly lopsided tbh, select, cruncher, machine, tt1, kiwi and fenix on the bottom half who are all more accomplished recently then anyone on the top half with only qxc and moonan standing out ( havent seen painuser play for a long time admittedly)

Qxc and moonan are the only standouts for you? That is quite odd to me - I feel like the brackets are fairly well balanced, though obviously it's pretty subjective and hard to get exactly right.

Who else in the top half has preformed well recently?, moonan is one of the only americans doing well in TSL3 qualifiers and qxc is qxc

edit* didnt see drewbie and sheth but still i do think the bottom half is way more stacked, kiwi, fenix and select are like the best 3 NA players

I can assure you that a lot of time was put in to figuring out the invites, and also the matchups. Sometimes, people aren't going to feel the same way, but we thank you for your input, as it's always something that we want to improve in our events

While I love watching Catz play, I'd much rather see Axslav vs Painuser. It just seems like it would be an interesting match up. Maybe that's just because I see Catz play often on his stream and I haven't seen Painuser recently.

Other than that I agree with the other ones that are winning in the polls... though Slush vs Cruncher sounds like a really good one as well... not to say the rest aren't good, but those one's stand out in particular. I can't wait to see the results!0

Edit: Since it was mentioned I just wanted to quickly say that the top and bottom halves of the brackets look pretty even to me.
