Win. Oh my god. Please think about this before you do it. The only reason those players were able to participate in IEM was because they all lost spectacularly in the Code A Ro32. None of those players deserve, let alone good enough, to be a part of Code S. Furthermore, these players were sent down to qualifiers and doing this will give them an automatic spot in Code A again. Of course, I understand the quandary you're in, and I don't have an actual suggestion short of having the Code A losers playing it out for the last spot, but I can say that this is highly unfair for everyone involved. | ||

alive pushes across the map and kills off Supernova's tanks. 17:45 alive sieges up at Supernova's nat. Up in supply, but he throws away his marines against tanks! | ||

Losing a single BO3 means absolutely nothing and thus those are quite bold assertions | ||

These were all knocked out in code A already / didn't even qualify, how do they deserve to get the spot by competing in a tournament of inferior players in Europe. (Sorry if you don't agree with that, koreans are just better atm IMO.) Its not that I don't agree but its not an european tournament. There were worldwide qualifiers for it. Its more like a world-championship sorts of. Every continent has their representatives. | ||

Edit: @silentsaint : Sorry, poor phrasing >< I didn't mean that only Europeans competed. The tournament is held in Europe with players from all over the world, but that doesn't change my opinion that the (non-KR invites) are not as good as the players in Code A. | ||

This is a very good point! And on another note quite embarrassing that these players sweeps the floor with the foreign players. | ||

Then is it fair for 4 foreigners to be seeded for Code A when it is so competitive now? No, this is gom's choice and it will be interesting/good for esport since the winner of IEM will be known by more Western crowd and increases the chance for more viewers/subscribers. Same concept as why they seed 4 foreigners. | ||

Well Idra is/was considered a Code S player when he left Korea and Squirtle beat him. So if you consider them not being code s players based on one serie in code A, I can consider them code s based on one serie against Idra. Kk? | ||
