We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum. Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service. Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread.

Who would be willing to go to GSL Code A? - So far only Naniwa and Idra are certainties to get the Code A berth, but will they take it? I know Idra won't and Naniwa has expressed desires to go to GSL, but is it a little bit too early for him? This leaves two more open spots... I get the feeling that Sheth could be another likely candidate even if he doesn't make Top 3 foreigners, as he's going to Korea for GSTL anyway. I'm pretty sure Ret and Haypro won't be going back for Code A and Sheth has a pretty getting that berth. Kind of a good coincidence considering he can't make it for the Code A qualifiers. 2. Which Korean will return next MLG? - MMA and Losira are almost certainly going to obtain enough points for seeds for Anaheim. July and MC have a pretty good chance as well. Moon is still in the running. Are they going to return? Assuming some of them do (I'm pretty sure SlayerS has enough sponsors to send MMA in again and oGs and ST have shown they don't mind sending players abroad), this might start to have an effect of concentrating the Korean base. We could have up to 9 Koreans (10 since Select may still be seeded due to his Dallas performance) seeded players next season. And it may continue to grow for the next few MLGs. I'm sure CatZ will not be very happy. Too early for Nani to go because he has a lot of upcoming tournaments with big prize pools. If Sheth manages to make it to top 4 then I bet he would considering he'll already be down there for the GSTL. Ret and HayprO are happy with where they are. They won't go. The Koreans already said they would like to comeback as long as it coincides with their schedules. | ||

Im sort of glad TLO dropped out of the groups, he is just not good enough right now, he was in the easiest group and he just bombed. I like TLO but he just doesn't deserve a spot, I hope to see him stomping his way through the open bracket next MLG, I have faith that the team house will work well for him in the next few months. He needs to put his head down and practice hard. Haypro, its about time, easy group but at least you performed for once. Tyler, Im disappointed, but his group was insane so it is understandable. All the same another one that needs to to work much harder. I watched all his replays and there is just nothing impressive about his play. Sixjax major, great pick up for sixjax, proving his worth. Koreans, I expected nothing less. Wtf Select. Nice to see Qxc returning to form. Morrow, I was expecting better. | ||

We've already seen that Haypros vZ is pretty good via his Losira games so (as much as I love ret) haypro has a good shot against ret/vibe (although, should probably converse with morrow about it). Major he is already 2-1 up, so that should be easier for him as well. Yup, Hayder is in great shape to finish in the top 6. Got to give the fella props where its due.  | ||

Tried to find the cut throat thing, but couldn't find it. That's the best I could do. A little bit graphic and NSFW though. | ||
