Yea, I would like Europe and Asia to get another seed each. But I'm not the one who makes these decisions

I think it is based on the player (not pro) base of each region. If they did it in terms of top pros,. korean should have gotten at least 70-80% of the spots. But this is more like the Olympics.

if that happens though, korea would need more than 10 seeds to WCS Asia. Maybe 25/32 WCS Asia seeds should be KR

I feel that Blizzard should also look a bit more on how the pro scene looks (but not completely). For the EU Championship, I feel that Finland and Sweden should've got one more seed each.
Also is the player base decided on # of sold games per capita?

What I find a bit weird also is that they chose to seed the german/french champion directly, I mean Socke is really good, but I feel that Sweden is better than Germany overall. France is a bit weird also, since on one hand Stephano is probably the best EU player (or at the very least top 3), but on the other hand, we dont have any really good player outside of him. So yeah, I feel that Sweden would have deserved a direct champion seed a bit more than Germany or France.

I think mana is casting today
not entirely sure if the tweet is saying he's casting or just coming to the studio.

I think they already stated that the number of players in the general region dictated the overall number of seeds. So its not too surprising NA got the most seeds since they have the most players.

I think it was several factors. But number of games sold was definitely a major one. That is why France and Germany got the direct seeds.
