Inno, Parting, and Cure are all top 8 in GSL right now, they're doing just fine on points. Can't say the same for a lot of the other guys.


Why should you earn EPT points without qualifying and without winning a single match?


Don't ask me?! I've been vehemently against those seeds since they announced them!


DRG qualified but Zest and INno couldn't have, come on.

They are both ro8 players they would've walked the qualifier, most of good KR players didn't even tried.

That's not the point.

The point is that just giving away seeds limits the number of people who could surprisingly qualify, and if you'd seen the qualifiers there is NO guarantee any of those guys would have qualified especially with all of the server drama.

There's also the point that you're just donating EPT points to players without them having to play for them. Especially since they seeded them into the second round.

Then make them qualify. The entire point of qualifiers is to make players qualify on their own merits.

In practice though I doubt these points given to invited players will make much of a difference even if it's a bit iffy in principle.

Don't be daft. If they are so good, why are they in the loser bracket? That can't be right.

Honestly all those supposedly good players in the losers bracket are just a bunch of has-beens, so 2020 Q1

It's quite rich to whine about it, there is nothing wrong with top players from each race to be seeded (I guess they tried for Maru, Stats, and Dark but it went wrong ), in the end it's providing us a really good tournament, and if it makes the organizer happy with inviting 4 of his favorites players, guaranteeing they are in (Serral could have skip it for example considering he will qualify for the IEM finals), considering there is a loser bracket, it's fine.
