What's the point of twisting someone's words into another meaning?

I think he will get it, it's just not structured enough yet. It's too new.

I believe he was talking in korea where there not that many wc3 players playing sc2 right now.

Really enjoying IdrA's insight into the BW-SC2 scene as someone who didn't get into SC until last year. It's nice to hear a little more detail on the BW players that ended up switching.

Unfortunately, I have to agree with the SOTG hosts on this issue - it's a huge advantage for GSL players, not so much for MLG players. The opportunity costs are simply not the same.

I think they didn't really thought about it from a foreigner perspective :
- Place 2 to 4 goes to code A :
-- if they lose first round, they can just return to US directly and just spent 2 to 5 days in Korea
-- if they lose ro16, they just go back to US after 7 to 10 days (those 2 cases still makes a nice hollidays)
-- if th go ro8 or better, then they can actually have a shot in code S, so staying one month has a real point

- Place 1 gets to code S :
-- same process ; he gets eliminated in group play, he just returns to US, next GSL the next MLG winner will get his spot (he obviously won't play the up and down, they haven't announced the details but I guess it will be like that)
-- if he wins group play, he already earned more (or equal ?) than a second place in MLG. He only stays in Korea while he keeps winning, so he risks nothing and potentially gains a lot (in money and fame)

Foreigners wins in all those scenarii.


Code A is pretty much worthless, so basically they get a shot at money IF they decide to stay in Korea for a month+ AND IF they get through Code A. Code S is awarded to only one player, and that player can be a Korean. By contrast, getting seeded into the Champion's Bracket gives you a pretty damn good chance of winning money in the three or so days that you're there for MLG. It's great for people like Naniwa who want to go to the GSL anyways. But for most MLG players it's an opportunity that's probably not even going to be used, especially given the skill discrepancy that typically exists at MLG vs GSL.

Foreigners win in none of these scenarios, except the one foreigner who gets seeded into Code S *if* he's a foreigner.

Yes but you forget the part where they just can go back to US if they lose, without having risked anything. That's a pretty big opportunity for the most talented guys, again with no risk involved.

I think IdrA had the best response.

I have to say, I hate when people focus on their argument only, and don't take a look at the other side. You are supposed to bring up both arguments, and disprove the one you disagree with as we all learned in school.

Edit: Wait did they say Intrigue wrote that article? I actually got in a long argument with him on another one of his threads where he was very biased towards his argument.
