theres no other sc2 players in cj and anyone who wants to and can get someone to make them an account can play on the korean server.

Silver above Painuser and Drewbie confuses me a bit to be honest. Rest are alright.

Banner is amusing too.

What does living in Korea have to do with participating in an American Tournament?

Also, why would e-Sports be any different than all the other sports in the world. I mean, I didn't see Lance Armstrong participating in the national championship of Germany or anything like that...

Hmm...
I'm not really into SC2, but from the sound/look of it T is kinda OP...
Is it really ok to host that many tournaments when one of the races in still in need of fixing?

NOTE: I don't play SC2, but I've seen many complain about T imbalance

QFT

Just let Idra play. The IEM would be that much more boring without Idra anyways.

Indeed hoping for Murder to qualify for the group stage.

My dream match would be Finals Murder vs Idra Murder winning (no biasness whatsoever *whistle*).

Should be very interesting can't wait to see the groups and all (like who's in group a/b/c/d)
When I think of something else, something will go here

People only realised Silver existed like a few weeks ago and now he's top seed above those players? Meh, not sure I agree with these seedings tbh.

Artosis below PainUser... lol I bet he's not happy about that ^^

So so many Terrans as well, its kinda sad =/

Hope to see Machine do really well, think he's a seriously underrated player.

So wait does he consider himself more Korean or more American? The wording on that was kind of ambiguous. Sorry!

Does anyone know if this is going to be streamed?
What's that probe doing there? It's a scout. You mean one of those flying planes? No....

Idra makes players famous when he rages against them. When Silver is mentioned I'd wager the majority of players automatically think "Oh yea he's the terran idra raged against." and know little to nothing of his play
i was driving down the road this november eve and spotted a hitchhiker walking down the street. i pulled over and saw that it was only a tree. i uprooted it and put it in my trunk. do trees like marshmallow peeps? cause that's all i have and will have.

indeed, if you wanna become known in sc2, one of the methods besides streaming, youtubing, and do well in tournaments is to make idra rage...

Apparently all you need to do these days is win a TvZ with mech on close spawns and another with sieging a LT cliff to become gosu material. Go figure.

Did anyone not expect it? lol. Everyone likes easymode!

Silver has performed well against people on that list and beat them in a previous ESL. Silver seeded makes sense due to his performance in ESL sanctioned tournaments.

So with this logic, when our men and women across seas come home from Afghanistan they will be greeted with this message: I'm sorry ma'am/sir, but you are no longer American because you have been serving your entire military career abroad, so you will be deported back to the warzone. Have a safe trip.
Sorry for the exaggerated example, but I just wanted to emphasize on the silliness of your statement.

Then why did he get to play in the Europe IEM?
