You're saying that the season 1 open qualifier wasn't? Sorry if I was ambiguous I was referring to the Open tournament portion through which Puma and Alive qualified for the grand finals. For season 1 a handful of players from TSL were the only Koreans who signed up. I expect next season's to have at least several dozen of them. You are so wrong dude, I just compiled the complete list of players for next season and the only players to qualify from the open tournaments who do not play for Korean teams are Thorzain, Moonan, Lowley and Nightend ??? Are we talking about the same thing? I'm talking about an event that hasn't happened yet. Assuming season 2 is the same format from season 1 then 15 players will qualify for the grand finals from the group stages, and 1 player will make the grand finals through an Open Tournament the same way Puma did this season. For season 1 the only Koreans I saw who even attempted were Puma, Alive, Clide, Revival, and Rain. I assume for Season 2 we will see many players from Slayers, Prime, ST, etc to participate. | ||

It only makes sense that they would put the top two players that were cut a chance to rejoin the league | ||

Or is it all just random draws? Would suck if there was a group with like MC/Sen/IdrA/Squirtle/Another korean. (unlikely, but possible) | ||

Edit: Stalife confirmed his withdrawal below ----> AFAIK the players who were 5-8th in the NASL Season 2 Qualifier are listed as "standbys" for Season 2. Therefore they would be the first players called up to replace players withdrawing, rather than the washouts of Season 1. | ||

So moonan, polt, vines and check placing 5-8th aren't in, they're only on "standby", whatever that means exactly. | ||

Season 1 groups were purposefully made to have racial balance (ex 4z+3t+3p) and regional balance (ex. 2 Koreans per group). I don't know if they'll do that again though. | ||

Perhaps, but do you seed the newly qualified players at the top or bottom? | ||
