SCI3 was the "viewer's choice" type of thing, that's why White-Ra was there. I don't see him making an appearance. While he's a great player, he rarely performs great in tournaments. Sort of like Destiny.
That being said, this being a "serious" tournament (and not the viewer's choice that 3 was), I wouldn't be against seeing a "struggling player" tossed in for a hope to shine. Like Tyler.
White-Ra has a lot of 1st places and great performances in major tournaments. No big wins in the recent months but I am sure he will come back as he did some time ago. His recent show matches against kas, nerchio and TLO show how strong he is currently. Unfortunate that we didn't see him in Homestory cup

What happened between TB and Incontrol? Was this the comments made on the Home Story cup?

How about apologising for saying he uses a "fake" voice for casting based on second hand information (being as you have never actually met him). Somehow i don’t think you can put on a fake voice for 14 hour long casting sessions and you can see videos on his channel from 5 years ago and his voice sounds the same.
You also know for a fact that his main source of income is his main youtube channel which has zero starcraft 2 content (most of his subscribers to that channel don’t give a flying fuck about SC2). So to say he got into SC2 for "e-monies" is wrong, no? Yet you persist inferring that he only got into SC2 for money reasons when he puts the miniscule amounts he makes from SC2 (compared to his main channel) back into SC2. Explain the logic behind that "opinion"? He could make much more money if he concentrated on putting content on his main channel and forgot about SC2 entirely. Maybe he simply enjoys casting, ever thought about that?
If e-sports is to grow and be taken seriously by the general public I don’t think figureheads of the scene should make Inflammatory comments about other figureheads that have zero basis in fact but seems you love all the drama alas...

If this is true then Incontrol is a douchebag.

Personally I disagree, if you check out his liquipedia page it shows he's one of the most consistent pros out there, and that's just for the premier tournaments. He's scooped a tonne of top-spots in minor tournaments, not to mention gold in IPL2. I do agree with you though in that it's unlikely we'll see him in this invitational.

I don’t want to sound preachy but maybe we could let this lie before it all blows up (again) guys? Seriously every SCi topic this same issue gets brought up, the same shit gets stired and quite frankly it’s getting old.

Awww yeah, HSC IV rematches ^^
|
Great players so far! Hopefully I can watch everything
|
wow awesome invites so far
no matter who the other 4 are, this is going to be awesome!

Agreed, but both seem to get alot of hate from Incontrol/TB superfans and I wish that wasnt the case. If a simple apology ended that (which i feel TB warrants) and we can finally put this nonsense to bed, that would be great, oh well...
Anyway, great pick TB. Darkforce impressed me alot at HSC. Shaping up to be a great tournament

great players up to now. players i want to see who are in na or Europe now are kas,demuslim,titian and beastyqt all of them are beasts
|
Awwww yeah... Socke comin in to tear this apart :D
|
Sick lineup thus far, TB, but not quite as sick as that logo of Grubby's. That's pretty damned baller.
|
4 awesome players so far! Thanks TB for doing this!
|
I am seeing a pattern! All of them played in the Homestory Cup!
Personally, I would like to wrong simply because I want to surprised but if I'm right then I call dibs on "I called it".

This doesn't really narrow it down since most of Europe played in HSC

Mana please! <3
Ah yeah. Was trying to think of the top players in Europe that weren't at HSC, excluding White-Ra and Demuslim. Had the Empire Terrans, ToD, but had forgotten about Mana. He would be excellent
