the EU qualifier looks so sad. Half of the top guys are missing. -.- And half of the players listed are like B-team players. (nothing against them so) No mouz players except morrow? Thats just...
Who can blame them so. It's a long trip that costs a lot of practice time and energy. With so many koreans its also tough to get in the money.

No Thorzain and Kas

A lot of EU players got knocked out in the first qualifers...

I am just happy to see LosirA back, though his last MLG was not good i know he can do way better then he did in winter, he's getting back in to shape and is showing impressive results online to. I am going to enjoy watching this.
Oh and yes the EU line is looking a bit thin, still it's not the number but the quality of players that matter.

Then you don't watch GSL. He is focussing on that mostly. And the reason why he is not in this qualifier: he failed to qualify through the open qualifier.

For example QxGSaSe will be qualifying in the Korean region while QxGNaNi will qualify in the NA one. Next is how so many amazing Europeans have been left out. I haven't really looked into the list from NA, but it's huge so maybe they fit in all the players? Just having a hard time seeing Pomi, Tefel, Seiplo, Roof being there while Nerchio and Kas isn't. Don't get me wrong, the four first mentioned are great, Nerchio and Kas are just toptop european players. I'd really love it for MLG to explain the seeding process!
Basically you can enter any qualifier you want to travel from. If Naniwa qualifies through NA he will get a plane ticket/stipend or what have you equal to that of someone living in NA.

Don't worry they will probably be running it around 12am CEST.

EU has more depth, but not infinite money. Most of the NA players come from the places 9th - 80th, which includes the open bracket. And because MLG is happening in NA, the NA guys could attend the open bracket, because it cost them less money than the EU guys.
I believe MLG envisions of having offline arenas all over the globe. It would be wonderful!

violet huk naniwa crazymoving rain sheth idra +1
Even though NA seems to have the largest bracket it shouldn't be hard for people to qualify unless they are placed an disproportionally strong bracket. This might be last time we see Idra achieve something so definitely will try to watch.

Half of Europe qualifies :D That's just a single round to win I guess.
Yes, and yet MLG will likely do a similar broadcast format. A two day (instead of four) double elimination bracket to determine their qualification and seeding in arena #2.

you ending up with a huge NA qualifier because of the whole top 80 thing, while leaving out many top EU players..
and why are the top 4 from this arena 1 even in this event?? surely they are already in the championship...
MLG wants the top 4 of their current event in their following event so they can create a fictional rivalry that is
DRG v MKP!!!
BOO YAH!

Yeah basically MLG is moving the championship open bracket to online and saving those guys $.

If MKP makes it to the GSL finals, he won't be at Spring Arena 2.
Also, will the results be posted after the tournament, or not until the broadcast? I guess it could leak...
