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. Cut it out.

Man, this thread is slowing down fast since all the westerners are eliminated. Guess I wasn't the only one that doesn't care about the results of a bunch of random koreans. yes.. random koreans. they are random. july, mma, MC, and losira are random koreans. truly random. gtfo Since I don't watch Korean SC2 in the middle of the night I have never heard of any of them. They don't stream, they don't do twitter, they are never on any of the SC2 shows, western viewers have no attachment to these players. Then don't watch? What do you want? Not let them play because they're better than the players you know? Let Idra win the tournament because he is someone you know? And Koreans do stream. They do do twitter. Not your fault you don't follow them. Not in english. Yes, I wish the biggest Western tournament would not invite any more Koreans. If they want to fly over and own the open bracket with their own money then go for it. But giving them free flight, free hotel, free placement, just so they can sweep the money and kill the western scene, that makes me angry.
Maybe they should take the game seriously if they want to consider themselves pros? The biggest tournament in Korea that has a $25000 monthly prize allows seeds into it from MLG, it is FULLY the fault of the foreigners that they simply are not good enough to take that prize.

there is a code S spot for the MLG winner
Code A Winner will automatically advance to Code S without going through Up & Down Match
- MLG Winner will receive a GSL Code S seed for the following month. (Even if the winner is a Korean player, the seed will be provided). If the winner turns down the Code S seed or is already a Code S player then the runner-up will be given the seed.
winner of MLG will get code S for next gsl. since losira and MC already have it, it's prolly going to go to MMA
That code S seed doesn't apply for MLG Colombus.
Please R1CH, code an audio trigger screaming this fact when you open this thread.

Uh, anyone's stream kinda freezing at random spots and then looping back?

Damn. With the semifinals comming next and properly pauses in between I won't get to see the finals live  . Hope they have VODs ready tomorrow, and they don't get spoiled

Pro Circuit Players Competing in the GSL
- At MLG Columbus, the Top 3 non-Korean finishers will each be placed into GSL Code A.
- At every 2011 Pro Circuit Live Competition after MLG Columbus, GSL placement will occur as follows:
- Code S status will be awarded to the highest placing player, regardless of country of origin, who does not already have Code S status.

I don't like losira's choice of 3rd
Agreed. I am not such a fan of expanding towards MMA :/

The other choice would be to put it on the other side of the map.

TASTOSIS IS SUPERIOR TO DAY9/WHEAT
I didn't always know this, but it is true. Tastosis take a more professional adult aproach which I have come to appreciate.
Dsy9 is a little too over-excited, like creating excitemennt at a tweens birthday party. Toning down the "CHEER FOR XXXX" stuff is necessary.
IMO
okay? Why did you feel the need to post that? You feel like you contributed to the discussion? You dont think that what caster you like is different for everyone?

will the grand finals be a BO5 or BO 7 ?
BO3. Potentially two of them. Unless there's an extended series.

Something tells me that if Idra had tried that bust and failed like losira's did, idra would've gged...

All the people not caring about who wins... you might not be into it because YOU don't know the backstory/personality of these people, but a LOT of us do!
We've been following the Son of Boxer!
We've witnessed Losira trying to design what we now call the 2base roach/ling-push to punish 3gate expand!
GSL representin'!

Are you implying games aren't worth watching just because of the players' nationality? They aren't "random Koreans" either. So stupid.... Don't reply to these comments.. people watch games for different reasons. I do because I love starcraft, which means I'll be happy to watch koreans at the top if they are truly the best. Other people watch for the hype, and they feel more excited when their homies play. I understand the feelings of many people, although I feel that shouldn't make them miss quality starcraft games. There is no shortage of quality games, what makes MLG and other tournaments special to me is cheering for personalities I know. Just having random amazing players, that don't speak the language, that are not involved in the western scene (don't stream, don't go on shows, don't contribute) I just don't care about their results. A korean wins, which one? I certainly don't care, in fact, koreans will take home all the big money, because they are top 3. bitter foreigner much? you're a fucking racist. he absolutely is.
It's not racist to only be interested in watching players you know.
I don't care about watching barcelona vs real madrid in the champions league, but as soon as a british team's involved I will watch!

I really hope MMA wins though, I want him in code S! (winner gets it regardless of where hes from) i can't believe this NO the winner does NOT get code S. If a mod could add that to top it would eliminate a lot of confusion. Also the Koreans I believe are not eligable for the spot but that one im less sure of. Koreans aren't eligible for the CODE A spots. However, the CODE S spots are fair game for the winner.
no, bro just no

MMA is guaranteed the Code S spot right, since even if he loses it'd trickle down to him? Or is in the MLG rules that it has to go to a foreigner? That would be lame =\ No Code S for anyone in this MLG. We've repeated this so many times. Top 3 NON-KOREANS will get a Code A spot. No. TOP 3 WILL GOT A CODE A SPOT, UNLESS THEY'RE ALREADY IN CODE A (or S)
This has nothing to do with nationality.Unless this is a special no korean rule for this MLG and I'm a fool. But I don't think so.
NO ONLY Foreigners get CODE A, both can get CODE S
ALSO to other people trying to figure out who will be going into code S That doesn't go into effect until AFTER COLUMBUS.... PLEASE READ the ENTIRE post by MLG properly before posting 100+ useless posts...
