Players such as Jinro, HuK, and Adelscott did not apply for this tour, so don't ask why they aren't on this list. DIMAGA, Kas, and LaLush turned applications in late so they will not appear either. Please take some time to learn who exactly applied. Please inform yourself about who applied and who didn't. |

They eliminated that, but i think he's not being invited because of his injury, which is worse than originally suspected.

Boxer isn't an obvious choice for me because, well, he hasn't really been doing amazing lately, and Nada and July are both good old-school choices who are currently doing very well.
MVP, Nestea, MKP all didn't apply, so obviously they won't be in. Same with Jinro and HuK but somehow people seem to forget this.
I love Dimaga, but seriously: get your application in on time. It's hard cutting down a list of the top players in the world and not getting your application in makes it a VERY easy decision. If he was the World IEM winner or something I'd question why he didn't get an invite, but as it is I can see why he'd be on the cusp of the invite list. I'd say he'd be almost guaranteed a spot if he'd, you know, applied in time. Guess he just has to rock the 1024 player BO1 tournament. NASL 46-50 Boxer Nada July Morrow Minigun Lots of deserving people left.... but Minigun should be there. If MC isnt picked then I don't know what.
He applied, he won 2 GSLs and still doesn't get a spot over other koreans than this tournament for me lose a lot of respect.
What more does a guy have to do to get an invite?

Just get Kas and Demuslim in and i can feel the spirit :D Untill now i love the players who made it in, and I think this will be the first step for esport international And now stop this whining about some missing koreans.

I agree with this, except they will probably want to balance out the races, so I think only 1 more terran will get in (I wouldnt want to be the one deciding between boxer and nada LOL). To even it out then you need 2 more Z and 1 more P, I would definitely invite atleast 1 big name korean zerg (July is sadly the only one that comes to mind lol), and morrow for sure. As for P, minigun / MC, I'll be happy with either, but definitely very sad if minigun doesnt get in , he has been performing so well lately. Last pick probably should be another Z considering they will need the most help in the probability of producing a winner . I would go with destiny, because he is a total bawss and sooo fun to watch :D

Two of those 7 players aren't going to make it... We already know Boxer is in because xeris has essentially said so, so we get 4 players from Nada, MC, Morrow, Demuslim, Fruitdealer, July. Also, Incontrol said "oGs has some people in the league", so i'm guessing that means more than 2... so it'll probably be Boxer, MC, Nada + 2 more.
So, Morrow, Demuslim, Fruitdealer, July. Which 2 are going to be rejected? I can't imagine any reasoning behind not inviting Morrow... I literally cannot think of a single reason. So, it comes down to
Demuslim, Fruitdealer July. Which 2 will be rejected? I still can't believe players like dde/vibe are going to take spots from gsl finalists on a tournament that's *supposed* to invite off results.
I can see Fruitdealer not making it simply because his play has been rather weak lately. The only good recent matches I've seen him in were the last up/down matches.
Hm, now that I think of it Demuslim would be a good choice simply because it would give the UK a player in the NASL (assuming he doesn't get in any more bar fights! j/k =) ).

Squirtle, Ret, Ensnare, Rainbow, Zenio
5 New additions just uploaded to the Nasl site!
|
Regardless of who the last 5 are, Xeris will likely make a post explaining the process.
|
Rainbow, Ensnare, Squirtle, Ret, Zenio......
Interesting Korean pick........ but I feel a lot of good players might be left out from this NASL...

If that were to happen, I imagine they told oGs they would get X spots and explained how the schedule might make it more difficult to practice for gsl etc, and then let oGs decide who they wanted to play. He also might have reconsidered his application based on his experience with NA latency. Of course, this is just in case he doesn't get an invite, which I still find more likely.

Divisions 1 and 3 are ridicolously easy compared to the others.
|
I guess I'm looking forward to tomorrow since the abomination of invitations from NASL will be gone for good. Should' have been half invite/half qualifiers from the start. Of course they'll still probably try to stack groups for drama/story in the next couple of seasons but, cherry picking players will be behind us. Hopefully...

Division 5 is by far the scariest group of them all...... it just doesn't seem fair for the players in Div 5 compare to other groups.
|
Balance the groups more please, having stacked divisions when some of them are full of scrubs won't hold well with the community when great players are knocked out and the least skilled players in the tournament survive just because their division was easier

Like who? All the other Korenas? Dimaga applied to late. Kas didnt (?). You can make some arguments that Minigun and Moonan are better than other NA players. But thats it. Perfect choice for me, if last 5 are MC/July/Boxer/Nada/Morrow.
|
We'll see who gets added tomorrow, but I can think of far more than 5 people who deserve to be in this and several people of the 45 that I don't feel are deserving. If tomorrow doesn't draw people from nada, MC, bomber, july, morrow, MMA, and boxer I'm going to be seriously disappointed. I hear boxer is getting in, but honestly he seems like the least qualified of that list to get in.
Bomber deserves a spot more than so many people on that list of 45. I really hope he gets in.
|
Its kind of lame how the groups are tailor made for "story" or whatever (Grubby/Moon, IdrA/Zenio, etc). Especially because if I recall a few of the people behind NASL were complaining about a tournament back in the beta which also tailored the groups, granted it was not a 10 week tournament, so maybe it wont have such a profound impact on group play. We'll see!

Yeah, I'd really hate to be stuck in division 5, huh Cloud? 
You never know, though. 1 and 3 may end up with MC and Nada in them, or something......that may balance them a little bit...maybe...

Ok, pick 4 koreans, have 5 groups where 1 group is really fucking imbalanced (group 5)
put best korean in group 5 (zenio)
how smart
