It's pretty obvious what the seeds were:
Tier 1: Bomber, MVP, Nestea, MC
Tier 2: Naniwa, Ace, Puma, ForGG
Tier 3: Yonghwa, Oz, Killer, JYP
Tier 4: Bly, Grubby, Socke, White-ra
Tier 5: Tarson, Adelscott, Strelok, Lucifron
Tier 6: Real, DBS, Xlord, Cloud
Tier 7: Aures, Targa, Deathangel

I hope to see a highly inspired Naniwa this tournament. I think he has a great chance of winning this thing.

Looks like some good matches coming up :D
Tastosis Day9 and Kaelaris to keep it all entertaining as well, i think this event has the potential to be a real step in the right direction for IEM and their ability to compete with the big boy tournaments.

Tier 7: Aures, Targa, Deathangel

I think you rated Deathangel fairly low...while he might lose to other foreigners he's fairly good against koreans...given he made the finals of code A qualifiers twice in a row!

He's not rating anything. Tier 7 are the players facing Tier 2 players (since Tier1 get a free pass for first round).

Are there still players to be announced ?

It may be a dumb qeustion, but: The open bracket is on wednesday, which is (AFAIK) exhibitors only. How will they fill the empty spot, if the guys, who would play in it aren´t allowed to attend that day?

Well it's not about if he rates Deathangel low or not, it's about his placement in tiers. If you take a look at the bracket you might see that too!
