Seriously IGN you need to start seeding players last qualifiers we had strelok and sjow facing eachother in round 2. The best players are knocking out eachother and then we get some lesser skilled players to qualify becuase they had an easy bracket. wtf

If you just want the same players as always, there are still plenty of invite-only tournies going that you can watch.

In 1 bracket you got nerchio vs grubby in round 1 and then some masters players bascially mean whomever win this match proberly gonna goto the round of 32.

Now in another bracket you got players like imba.FXOpen.LoWeLy, bischu, mtwdimaga, sockeh, cruncher that means most of them gonna knockout eachother in round 2 and only 1 left standing in round 64.

And then in the bracket below this bracket you only got masters player and a few GM players no1 have heard about. Really?? how is that even fair.

IGN there is a reason why every sport in the world seeds. Becuase the best teams/players arnt suppose to knockout eachother early. If we took you format and put it into the world cup we would have Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Italy, Spain in 1 bracket and have have lesser nations in another and then they would actually go further just becuase of luck.

Yea I'm pretty upset about it. Even in this bracket there are a couple of easy sections and we're going to see some top level pros get eliminated because of their tough bracket sections.

Notables in each section
Section 1: Hasu, Thorzain, Haypro, Bly
Section 2: Grubby, Moonan, Nerchio
Section 3: Bischu, dimaga, socke, nightend, cruncher
Section 4: Minigun
Section 5: Strifecro, Goody
Section 6: Insolence, Killer, Slog
Section 7: Catz, Slush, sjow, beastyqt, qxc, drewbie, pokebunny
Section 8: White-ra, TT1


With only 4 slots left after this qualifier, theres a good chance many of the top pros won't be present. On the bright side, atleast white-ra has a much easier bracket section this time around lol

I really don't get why there weren't any seedings though. Any explanation from IGN? I understand not having seedings for the first qualifier (what do you base it on?), but why not for the following ones? All you have to do is seed players based on how far they progressed in the previous qualifier.

I like how they aren't seeded. Give a chance and some exposure to new blood instead of constantly giving floaters to the pros. Don't get me wrong, I love professional matches, but I also believe in giving everyone a chance, though the imbalance is obvious~
