EPTAlso, it was great you had QXC on the show again even though it was really weird to actually be able to see and hear him.

Is he better than other people? Is he? I just don't know! That's the thing! I don't know what LS has done except release a few tut videos and things vlogs maybe. He hasn't palyed a TLPD tournament since a year ago, when he lost to tod and atterro and beat painuser and catz... not a disastrous performance, but not one that stacks up side-by-side with ret, parting and squirtle. | ||

Hey guys. Anyone noticed that part in the intro about people criticizing other people in e-sports for using e-sports money for food and housing but before that JP said he blew 800 bucks on strippers? There you have it, e-sports ppl blow all e-sports cash on strippers not on food. The truth was revealed. + Show Spoiler + j/k lol dont ban me | ||

. Also have to mention that I lolled pretty hard when QXC slammed his hand on the table and said - "NO!!, NO!!, NO!!, NO late game! I don't want any of it!" when they talked about T lategame. Geoff as usual just being godlike, I can't understand how anyone could dislike him. Most loveable person in E-Sports after White-Ra. | ||

Still missed Artosis and Nony a bit though. I'd say Day[9] too but when's the last time he did one of these.. This show definitely needs guests though. Gets a bit stale if it's the same people week after week. This weeks edition reminded me of the original shows (like episode 10 to 30ish) that got me so hooked. | ||

I also think it was really good having two europeans on the show, really added another perspective. | ||

I disagree, I for one is quite excited to see a foreigner who's lived in Korea for quite a while and is said to have a grandmaster account there. To quote was it Darkforce(?) from the show who said something like "if Soulkey is in Grandmaster league he should be able to do some damage in the open bracket (MLG)", well same goes for LS, if he is a grandmaster player in Korea he should be able to do some damage at the Red Bull Battlegrounds (his group is tough as shit though). Also, a pull-factor is the fact that we know very little about him. He got 4th at MLG Raleigh 2010, which doesn't say much about his skill now of course, but it does tell you that he used to be on par with the best. It will intrigue me (and I'm sure a lot of other people) to see him play. He is an unknown with history and so it will be a cute storyline that say EGMachine or EmpireHappy wouldn't match, even though they probably are more deserving of the invite. | ||

It's fine for you to disagree, not everyone can be correct. This isn't the open bracket.. so far from it. The reason you fail to even enter into this discussion properly is not limited to but deserves recognition precisely because you cannot tell the difference between a 41k$ 16 man invite and the MLG open bracket. | ||

It's an invite. It's not deserved or underserved. It's within the organizer's discretion. Ultimately, if it helps make the tournament more interesting it's good, if it doesn't it's not. Day9 (somewhat cynically) said that the criticism for inviting lastshadow is good, because it created a storyline for the tournament. Maybe that's not entirely true. But still, the fact remains that a single bad invite in a 16 player tournament hardly matters at all. | ||
