i really hope some of the foreigners from the gslwc will show up there. especially dimaga impressed me and we dont get to see him much in big tournaments lately for different reasons.

only thing i can complain about is the topheavy prizemoney. would prefer a wider distribution for the sake of the participants. with that calibre of players and the current state of the game literally anyone can be knocked out in the ro32.

other than that i love how gomtv manages to bring us constant variety at the highest level of entertainment and competition.

The sad thing about the prize money is, just for being in the ro32 on this tournament you early 2/3 of the amount the Code A champion recieves :< And the same amount for 2nd place Code A

On the other hand, Code S/Code A operates under the assumption that Code S are the best 32 players and Code A the second best. Therefore, winning Code A may be a grueling achievement, but it means you're ranked 33 of the GSL (at that exact time). Looking at it like that it puts it all in perspective and it makes sense that just ranking top 32 is enough to win you (almost) as much as winning code A!

The month in which JulyZerg will reign supreme? But in all seriousness, can we allow our Korean pro gamers a month of holidays please? All other sports have multiple months of downtime for the players to recuperate.

I added some colors 4 2011 GSL Tour Point Ranking, so it can be notice players grades.

Code S : Blue
Code A : Orange
W.C. : Green
S.S. : (will be) Ocean Blue

Thick colors are good grades. You guys can notice players grades by colors.
I will post these image weekly. So... I hope you nerds(and I'm nerd too.) write some replies.

Thanks for posting these, they're super informative!

Greatly looking forward to see this tournament, here's hoping lots of the NA/KR/EU players fly over to compete. Seriously, 64 man tournament for +$180.000 dollars? Yes please!

I hope ALL foreigners that are in top64 will go to Korea. This will be such an epic event if this happens and will bring is sooo many foreign viewers. Do you read this GOM? Contact them and pressure them to come, if some of them are uncertain that might sway their minds!

Man, I hope all of the foreigners (especially idrA and Dimaga) can show up. Dimaga was amazing in the WC, and idrA is idrA.

Gom are being very helpful to the WC foreigners, especially the likes of morrow who went to korea and didn't win a game. Compared to Keen who made the Code A semis and probably won't get in to the supertournament

That's the one thing that doesn't make sense, they are giving equal points to the world event tournament as Code S, so every foreigner who was in that is now higher ranked than up and coming Code A's who had to go through a lot more to get there. Doesn't seem right, players such as SlayerSRyung, MVPKeen, IMNuts, SlayerSMin etc seem more fitting / deserving. I guess they are just too new to the GSL scene to be in it even if they are showing to be better. Another example LegalMind who hasn't been very competitive as of late is locked in around 40th spot, because of past glory.
