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.

No only 45 so far at least as I see. I also agree on previous posters that I hope the last 5 are Morrow Julyzerg, MC, Boxer and Nada,

Wow your name is so classy. I hope someone with a hammer sees that.

The player lineup looks good. And i think they are inviting koreans that know how important this league could be for them. A MC knows how popular he is outside of korea and how popular he could become. Some of the korean pros dont even care enough to prepare for a huge event like TSL. So why should they be invited. I was a huge fan of nestea and mvp, but after their display of ignorance at TSL i will root for players that actually care about more than just their little world and think they can do the rest halfassed.

just my 2 cents

For the last 5 invites I hope Morrow, Demuslim and 3 good Koreans will make it in.

For the next season I hope we will see players like Kas, Dimaga, Tarson,Jinro, Huk, Adelscott and Thorzain qualify.

Would have liked to see SuperNova or TOP instead of ensnare, they're both the same race same clan and better players.

Haha, exactly my thoughts. I am really curious about the explanations for the invites. But I think they will be all wishy-washy like "incontrol is popular" - is he?

How did Nestea and MVP display ignorance. By losing? Now, I'm not too sure about the latency issue, so I won't comment on that, but they had little to no information on their opponents. Goody is a very good mech Terran and Adelscott played pretty damn well. I'm sure Nestea wasn't used to Goody's style, and he had no one to practice against since complete mech Terrans are very rare. TvP is MVP's worst match up, and although PvT is Adelscott's worst match up, he played really well that day which shows that he was able to really study MVP's style and prepare builds that were tailored against him. It's easy to get VODs and replays of MVP and Nestea, but not as easy to get VODS and replays of Goody and Adelscott. By saying that Nestea and MVP were being ignorant, you're just downplaying their opponents skill.

I read that so often, but it seems to be nonsense to me. Goody plays basically every day in online tournaments which provide replays for download. NesTea could have downloaded literally hundreds of Goody replays without any effort. I bet he has watched at least some, anything else would have been very strange.
At the same time Goody could not get replays from NesTea, just a few VODs.

Same is true for most other foreigner vs Korean matches.

Being absolutely serious here: are sites like sc2rep.com banned in Korea? If that is not the case, how would it be ANY hard to get replays of Goode&Adel?

Check out the pre game interviews, MVP said he was about to tailor some builds against Adel, but from what I have seen, he played pretty standardly in those games. NesTea said he was worried because Goody's style might alter from Korean Terrans, but that he was still confident to win. I am not completely sure if I am mistaken here, but I think, with equal preperation, both MVP and NesTea should have rolled over their opponents, regardless of lag (which, according to Jinro, is not as bad as some people are trying to make it look like here.)

I'm afraid that's pointless. The spots are already reserved for such awesome players like Dde, Vibe, Axlav, Incontrol aka Dimaga's app was too late [/sarcasm]

I know a lot of people will want Dimaga in since the world vs korea matches but he really deserved his spot long time ago. He is one of the few foreign zergs that are top top level along with Idra and Sen, and it wouldn't make sense for him not to be in the league.

Just like he added himself into top 16 seeding in MLG. Oh wait, he earned that!



there also aren't koreans in the MLG....


By your logic every tournament that doesn't have koreans in it is worthless. Koreans are good, but they aren't the end all be all of starcraft 2. MLG is extremely competative and a perfectly good meterstick for results.

No that is not what he means, grats putting words in his mouth though. Obviously since there werent koreans in MLG when incontrol competed diminishes the value of this "accomplishment" of barely coming top16 since it was a lot less competitive than it could have been - NASL will have koreans and some of the greatest players from all over the world making it even harder. Glad I could help.



thank you, he indeed did put words in my mouth.. but you clarified EXACTLY what i was saying to a tee...


Regardless, I'm not one of those people saying "omg i dont support nasl, wtf" I just do think it's a little odd we see iNc in this list but not some of the absolute best players in the world (who did apply) and while there may be 5 spots left, there are way more than 5 players who won't get invited that have achieved much greater.. if you goto the applications page almost all of oGs is still not in.

HuK confirmed on stream today that supernova isn't getting in for sure.. so someone who can goto the Code A Finals doesn't deserve a spot over incontrol, who has done what?...
that's all i am saying. It's without a doubt bias decision making. Regardless, I am sure NASL will turn out to be quite a success regardless. Just not quite as great as it could have been. If NASL wanted to give the impression that this was the worlds absolute best competing for a large prize pool, they've already failed. If i remember correctly, their hype video even stated "the greatest players the world has ever seen", cmon now, really?.... no.


See, that's what I have the biggest issue with. It really boggles my mind how having incontrol in the tourney vs. supernova is even fair :/

Because skill isn't the only factor and they've been clear about this. Not only is InControl one of the founders of the league he also is a very big name. That's why he's in it and similar reasons for Grubby and Artosis. Because they're famous.


so why does NASL's video on their homepage announcing the league state "the greatest players the world has ever seen" if this is CLEARLY not the case.


Well I don't know and I didn't say that I agree with they decisions. It's stupid not having people like Demuslim, Morrow, Thorzain, Nightend in the league. People who really deserve their spots over people like Vibe or DDE.

I, for one, am humbly grateful that a tournament like this is even being put on in NA, because I had long since resigned myself that high-level StarCraft would be something permanently relegated to Korea. Now, with the NASL, this side of the world has a chance to show that we are also an enthusiastic, supportive community that will help the growth of e-sports become sustainable over the long term.

But no, we get an awesome Starleague in NA, and now all of you want to whine about who is in it. Some want it to be GSL West, some want it to be only foreigners, and yet many more complain that their favorite player was not invited. They ask, "Why can't my favorite, who didn't even apply (on time) get in? He's SO GOOD." When told that the rules are being stood by instead of changed on the community's (often bandwagon-minded) opinion, they scream and shout, "BUT THAT'S NOT FAIR, HE IS TOO GOOD TO BE LEFT OUT OF THE NASL!!!!1111"

They forget about the Open Tournament. They forget that there are more chances than these initial 50 invites to be in the NASL. Let your favorite PROVE he's that good by getting into the NASL by his hard work and dedication through a long tournament, instead of by the invites you already ridicule as being marred by favoritism and injustice. Oh champions of these snubbed players, let not your immediate disgust ruin your perspective on the West's great chance at a lasting Starleague!

We must prevail... AS ONE.
