GOM wants more subscriptions so they give out charity spots. Because foreign tournaments don't give charity spots to koreans amirite? Inviting the best players to compete at your foreign tournament isn't a charity spot.

Tweeting such tweets, especially the one at the other guy, is just asking to be flamed. Hence, possible drama.

Polt get a code S seed, get 4th in his group. Nothing to say.
Naniwa get a code S seed, get 1st in his group. It's a charity invite.
Yeah.

Is this reverse day or something? NaNi winning 2 series, MVP losing a TvT and then winning a TvP? Something weird is up here :p I don't understand what's weird about Mvp winning TvP, he has 0 recorded TvP games in 2012, no one knew his TvP condition, it could be his best matchup now for all we know. Everyone loves to call his tvp shit for whatever reason, even though it's always been pretty decent. Never looked as nice as his tvt or tvz but he always found ways to win. Well, MVP did get beat by Alicia and Genius in the March 2011 Up and Down matches and thus got knocked into Code A for a bit, which did cause some cries over him slumping due to bad TvP. Although he did do a good job of clawing his way back into Code S, I guess memories of that time still linger.

Foreigners need some help in order to even be able to enter in the first place, and that's where the seeds come in. Hence my suggestion to make the decision much more stellar by making a public ranking system which also automatically should remove whining about why player A who won tournament B was invited instead of player C who won tournament D. Assuming you're not talking about having a public opinion poll, which is obviously a terrible idea (which foreigner did best in the most recent tournament? He's going to Code S!), then I think you'd find that people would just start bitching about the ranking system instead.

If you open up Ethan's tweet you can see that it was in reply to Wullull, but no tweet shows up. That means Wullull sent a message to Ethan and deleted it after he replied to it. It was probably something bad manner and justifying of that response, knowing Naniwa's fans

meanwhile... creator is streaming. holy sht he is so fast

I think it's fair to say that calling him a journalist is giving him more credit than he deserves.. He's basically a blogger.

Mvp! Mvp! Mvp!
Lets hope the first series against Ryung was a mere lapse. Though it would also be strange and sad to see round of 16 without a single SlayerS player.

On other note I think that some people would give Nani credit only if he went along these lines: GomTV: Hey, you just won a Code-S invite. Come and play! Nani: Yeah, ok but one condition... GomTV: Uhm?? Nani: I need a proper group, so that ppl wouldn't bash me on TL. GomTV: Ooookey... Nani: Great! So... give me Parting, MKP and Leenock in Ro32.
Lets say they do it. Nani advences 2-0...
TL: FU, he won only cause he chose his opponents himself. He would get knocked out of any other group, stupid noob! Are you serious? You're implying Nani blackmailed GOM into giving him an "easy" group or he wouldn't play in Code S, honestly what the fuck is wrong with the insane hate for Nani?

His micro isn't making me lose my mind tonight, but everything else about his play is still absolutely fucking mind-blowing. Love watching MVP play.

Yeah. It's not about what you do with the seed, but about what you did to deserve them.

Oh wow naniwa got through... didn't expect that. Good for him.

Mvps probably been focusing on tvp hardcore cos i know ive been the other matchups tvt and tvz are pretty well balanced but tvp seems just so unfair. I hate losing to lesser skilled protoss go MVP! That was so awesome MVP fighting!
