MOD NOTE: The bracket on Liquipedia is not final and should be assumed to be speculative. If you are a competitor, trust what MLG Admins tell you over the bracket. |

The funny thing is a ton of people here were complaining about how poorly the ESL qualifiers were done - myself included. I had no idea MLG would blow them out of the water in terms of shitty production.
NASL did a way better job than either MLG or ESL in terms of production, and I'm assuming they're competent enough not to fuck up the brackets, hackers, chinese players, etc the way MLG did.

I'm so confused as to what is happening here? In a nutshell anyone?

There's a thread on the frontpage of reddit with the results, which is probably worse tbh.
Either way this situation is pretty much un-salvageable for mlg at this point. The only thing they can possibly do is cast the last two games still going live, apologise, and find a hole to hide in for a few weeks.

Or realise they've fucked up beyond repair and give the broadcast rights to NASL. Of course, that'll never happen. They really couldn't care less about what the community thinks of them.

WJS Aria played in the WCS KR qualifier. It's some other Korean on a lesser known NA team... Search the last 100-150 pages to find out about it...
Ok thanks.

I haven't kept track of it, I heard some stuff about mysteriously shifting brackets and potential hackers being DQ'd late into the tournament, can anyone give a short summary?
here is a link, yes these are true, also MLG_admins are racist towards chinese players http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=408859¤tpage=19
the games are done but they will streaming the replays tomorrow and the next day they're banning people that show the results, the same with liquipedia.

MLG is a joke They fucking love money ._____.

Really really sad to see this.
But still it was an incredible run from him and I really hope we eventually get to see the replays.

What the fuck is going on, is this a pitchfork overreaction or did MLG really screw up in the last hour?

Bets on when the liquipedia bracket is updated? After MLG airs each game's respective replay?

i don't think anyone would have expected that mlg would somehow one-up ESL in terms of ineptness in handling a tournament

Yea, Demuslim should be really hyped for going 4-4 in map score against Koreans who live in a teamhouse and train under Coach Park when he only really gets the NA ladder to practice on.
EDIT: Demu doesn't really live in a teamhouse anymore. It's just him and Machine. Looking forward to their move to San Francisco.

And please don't watch it. Even if you really want to, the only way MLG is going to be more competent is if they realize their viewers won't just appear no matter what they do. They've been screwing things up for about a year now and it's pretty clear they don't "get it". Vote with your wallets and views and hope it gets them to get their shit together.

Demuslim is weird, he just never seems to have that one breakout tournament that will get him the recognition his play deserves. He's usually tearing it up in the NASL group stages, showing consistently good play over long periods, then doesn't quite get the big deep run.

Might make more if they run things differently though. Pissing off people is only going to cost them in the long run.
