But why is NASL Season 2 winner not included? To me, that's the most logical choice after GSL/MLG. I'd probably include 2nd place too. It's the only tournament that follows standard profesional sport format, with a really long season culminating in a finals event. I feel like, the winner of that should go to the "bowl game" of the sport. The only logical thing I can think of is the schedule...finals may be too close to Blizzcon. But if it's over the Korean drama, that's just stupid. GSL/Blizzcon are professional organizations so I expect more of them than to fall to some stupid elementary-level drama. | ||

NASL Season 2 ends just a week before Blizzard Cup. To wait so late before all players are known could be difficult. I don't know if this is the reason but it could be because of that - all the other tournaments end in November or earlier. | ||

Mana crushes Stephano every game they play and Sjow is pretty much the only foreigner who has retained his code A spot lately. They're at least as good as the line-up of IPL3. DRG > Lucky, Mana > Stephano and Sjow > theSTC. IPL3 had more top players tho but saying Mana isn't top 10 ROFL | ||

How many of those players attended IPL3? :o | ||

The only one in that tournament who might be top 10 is DRG. | ||
