The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance

Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#)

With the high risk of being dropped at the first season? And this is not even possible for 2nd or 3rd tier players.

I'm not quite sure, but I think there are a lot of "small" MLG events over the year and then one final event with bigger price pool. The results in the MLG events translate into points for the final event. This is why the players try to show up to as much events as possible.

Can't believe incontrol will most likely be in pool play next MLG, again....0-5, 0-5? Well, I just need to win this one game, and I'm set.

Yea that is total bullshit. I really question whoever thought up this pool play system on MLG's side of things.

Its ridiculous that someone can literally lose all their games 3 straight tournaments in a row and somehow still be in the top 16 because of 1 good performance months ago, before the koreans invaded, so it wasnt that impressive anyways. Of course he did win that 1 game against drewbie today though so hes pretty much guaranteed a spot in the next MLG (sigh)

I guess he has a decent shot against machine as well so he might make it 2 notches up the CLR before he falls.


They do seasons based on a year. The event that Incontrol finished 6th at was a part of that year so it of course counts towards points. The Koreans coming are probably one of the biggest reasons that Incontrols pool play status is safe (he is 9th atm). With them taking the big finishes with the large amount of rank points then it leaves those other finishes having less of an impact thus making the one high finish he has even more important.

Noblesse vs Idra game 1 was mostly excellent.

Huk vs Rain game 1 was decent.

Puma vs Nada series was pretty good.

Coca vs Nani and SeleCT vs Tricksster were both reasonably entertaining in the "one sided domination" kind of way.

Hero vs Painuser game 2, just for the showboating.

Yesterday had less compelling matches. Kiwi vs Puma might have been good, but no idea since I didn't see the last few games.

I doubt it. AFAIK the place of residence is the important thing. since puma was always able to take part in code a qualifiers and often did, it would be unfair to grant him something other koreans do not get granted. same goes for hero of course.

select is a totally different story.

Yes, but when GomTV were asked on this matter, their answer was : Korean = member of a Korean pro Team.

So that could mean a Code A spot for PuMa, the one very hard to decide case would be HerO though, as he is TL but at the oGs house with the oGs-TL partnership.
