Why leave out Winner of IEM Guangzhou IDRA just out of the door. He should auto qualify


They only invite the Winners of real tournaments! If they invite the Winner of IEM Guangzhou they also need to invite the Winner of CraftCup EU #37.

so.. iem NY vs iem guangzhou

which in your eyes is more "real"

TROLL.

The same way why invite from latest MLG and not one before ? If we are looking for most prestigious IEM this year then IEM Cologne would be the one to pick.

What indicates a "suitable substitute"?

I was wondering that too. Lets say MVP wins Blizzcon, now he would have the GSL and the blizzcon spot.

I personally hope that gsl just trys to send the best players with focus on those who compete in the gsl and not just trys as hard as possible to get foreigners into this tournament.

I think they should keep an eye on maintaining balance.

If 8 Koreans make the cut and one drops out, I'm not opposed to choosing a non-Korean player as long as he has the qualifications/achievements.

and again, there's lots of possibilities to use legitimate results as a decider:

1st place MLG 2011 ranking
1st place GSTL individual player
1st place IEM Guangzhou
1st place NASL
1st place ESCW
2nd place IEM New York
2nd place Blizzcon
3rd place MLG Providence
4th place GSL

it's basically World Cup 2011


Yeah, really glad that they are doing this. Great props to GomTV and Blizzard

World cups mostly invite maximum 1 national team or at least have guaranteed participants from multiple countries. This will most likely be Korean only tournament. The difference from standard GSL is that good players stuck in code A or B have a chance to participate.

1st place at NASL season 2
2nd place at NASL season 2

Those two should definately be qualified for this if the season 2 ends before this tournament.

Football World Cup is a bad comparison indeed - The ATP World Tour Finals in Tennis are a better example (obviously made easier through a unified ranking, but still comparable in picking out the most accomplished players of the year).

But still... The prizepool fails just a tad.
It's meant to be the big final tournament of the year and all that good stuff. They(hopefully) bring players from all around the world, or maybe just korea, together.
It sounds to be a major setup with more than just the games and this is what they bring: 68.000.000 KRW.
They ought to do better.
But what the hell, not going to stop me from watching this epic piece of sh*t...

..huh?

only MLG providence winner/runner up is going which is the MLG championships therefore biggest event for them...

the IEM choice is completely arbitrary.

Why is it on the website Nestea has over 21K points, but in his latest GSL match he barely had 16k?


I think it shows the total points, not just those from 2011. Hence why Nestea's first at all, because Mvp is notably above him in 2011 ranking points. Mvp's points are almost the same as they are in 2011 points (because he only got ro32 and ro16 in the open seasons).
