And one small question as I havn't even googled it ;-) but why are there no teams within the introduction of the players? Wow... I actually didn't notice that. Interesting. | ||

That's true however the answer is it got the same amount of spots because it has a similar amount of players, or something. It's not based off of pros, it's based off of overall playerbase | ||

I feel the brits really surprised and are putting on a great display, but almost everyone predicted this to be bling + demu + random, while sweden has quite a heavy lineup in Naniwa, thorzain, jinro, morrow, lalush, haypro, cytoplasm, sjow, seiplo, merz, bischu, plus surprise randoms. Did you not mention Sase? He is good enough to atleast be mentioned in my opinion.  | ||

Extended series involves continuing score from when players have already met in a tournament. It's an extended series regardless, its a rule which has 2 different criteria for it to apply In the Grand Final, an extended series occurs when the finalist coming from the losers' bracket wins the first best of three. Quoted from MLG. | ||

Perhaps if he wasn't such an illiterate tool he would realise that spots are allocated based on total number of players from the region not on the whim of some random pro who wasn't won anything that matters since MLG Dallas. It might also interest Naniwa to consider that if this tournament were truly based on representation amongst top skilled players there would be 31 spots for Korea and 1 spot for everyone else and seen as there are many players of the Zerg race outside of Korea he would surely find himself nowhere near the finals of this tournament. | ||

Quoted from MLG. That's not what Extended Series means at the MLG. MLG's rule is that if the same players have played before, the score from the first set is kept. | ||

Yeah this...he'll probably also start looking for excuses once he doesn't qualify..."oh noes, i didn't have 3 months to prepare for a match vs Bischu(or whoever)", that's why i couldn't make it." | ||
