From Jangbang's interview:

GSL and WCS have merged.

I feel very strongly that this is disadvantageous to players. It probably won't matter much to the players who are already at the top but I feel like the players who are at the bottom are at a disadvantage. This season's all about starting off by grabbing points so advantages and disadvantages alike are going to matter heavily. I'm sure that a lot of people will probably choose to play overseas but I think I'll probably just stick with what the eSF players are doing.


This leads me to believe a lot of Kespa players are going to play NA/EU

I dont know about you..but most of these groups are really lame..not as deep as last preliminaries.
Hoping Zero, Supernova and Best gets through.

Someone ask Khaldor if he could cast one of his games.


Bear will lose or walk-over against a no name amateur, and we will never hear of the UWC ever again :p
Bear will play (Z)Tible or (P)Panic first, so that seems unlikely.

I agree the groups are pretty underwhelming so far, blame WCS.

They should really let KeSPa handle the commercials, their production for intros & such is so much better, even though the small GSL add is not bad


I get the feeling this was something Khaldor just wanted to do, and Mr. Chae was like "Cool! Take Wolf and John with you!" I mean how often has Code "B" been broadcast in the past?


I'm not talking about 'production' of the cast from Code B. I'm totally fine with Khaldor sitting their and a bit of downtime etc. Just meant the code-s add in itself. Its not bad, but if you compare it to OSL/MSL or even proleague intros, its lacking. No hate towards Khaldor, GSL or anything here! I am very well aware that there is no "production" at the Code B qualifiers


You have a valid and good point. Although I don't know if "mind time" would enhance Code S casts, they do have some great production intros/ends/hype videos.

DAMMIT. I had just gotten that out of my head, too... now it's back.

I'm surprised the Kespa teams let their b-team slaves play WCS NA/EU.

Can you guys blame him for not taking a seed into Code S EU? You would have to be pretty dumb to refuse that. Even if Naniwa tried to qualify for GSL instead he wouldn't have any chance of participating in season 1 regionals and finals. It's the same reason so many Code B/A Koreans are going to take seeds to WCS NA/EU because if they don't they're totally fucked.

That's assuming there will be plenty of seeds for Koreans in other regions.
The most deserving are staying in Code S and the rest rarely plays abroad.

Look at the top 50 of NA GM. Now tell me if Revival, JYP, Oz etc won't be offered some of those 24 seeds if they declare that they choose NA as their region.

Why should they?
Seeds should be distributed according to accomplishments in the region or top 50 seeds would always go to Koreans.


The way they made it, they better give seeds to players deserving. Koreans are superior and if you 'FORCE' them to switch region, because you screwed them to begin with, you better give out seeds to them. Ofcourse there is no measurement for 'skill' in giving out seeds, but seeds usually go along with common sense. Why would you invite a rather successful NA player when the Korean you could invite is easily superior and would be not just more successful but also more entertaining in terms of games?

Because it invalidates any point of regional separation.
Just put all that money in more Korean events if top level play is all you want.


How does it invalidate any point of regional seperation? Your point would invalidate and nearly 'ban' based on origin (as mentioned in another thread). How can a player living and playing in Korea potentially be more accomplished in NA than a player from NA could be? Its flat out excusing and counting out the Koreans.

And that's precisely what should happen.
They have their own region and WCS aim was to help foreigner scenes.
Despite what some people think Koreans swooping in every 2 months to carry away 80% of the prize pool won't accompish that.
Blizzard is gambling that it won't happen due to sponsorship and logistics issues but if they are wrong (about NA in particular) the whole point of this system falls apart.

Arthur was 2nd in his group in NASL. He did quite well.

He's also the Dwarf Lord.
