it only made sense to get these guys since they're all in korea already

and they're awesome to boot

though imo there's several mentioned in this thread who are more deserving skill-wise of haypro's and glade's spots, but they didn't make the commitment of going to korea and they don;t have the vKorean practice. guess we'll see how it turns out

gl to these 4, hopefully a couple of them can hit code s next season, they've all shown impressive play in the past

Why don't we do this, just to help out a bit with consolidating info (just because you KNOW we're gonna get a million Huk, Nony, and Select votes).

NOTE: As has been pointed out, Tyler and White-ra are married, which may influence their ability to go to Korea. Also, qxc is moving to Spain for school which may/may not effect his ability to go. Lastly, if Huk and Haypro go, TL is almost ASSURED a spot in the GSTL since they'd be that much closer to the bottom two teams, and we all know they're gonna make it

dunno why Sjow is not in the list. grats to Ret,Haypro,Moonglade, but honestly Sjow 'IEM winner' deserves it more.
You know what I'm talking about

Sjow definitely could compete in code A based on his IEM performance but your comparison here is wierd considering Glade won IEM SEA/China in the same week Sjow won IEM Europe.

I think we'll see Sjow in GSL 6.

Not surprising it was the players already in Korea that got the spots now. For GSL 6 we will most likely see names like DeMuslim and Sjow that are considering it but ofc cant just move to Korea on a short notice. I'm guessing that GOM and foreign top-players are already in contact with eachother planning the GSL 6 so everything is in order in time.

As said before, mOOnGLaDe 'IEM winner'

Sjow probably deserved it the same as Ret, Haypro and mOOnGLaDe, just a pity he didn't get in.
But we don't need more Terrans.

I think they wanted to make sure that the players are in Korea before inviting them to Code A.

I hope to see more European terrans (Sjow, Demuslim, BratOK) in Code A next season. I don't think that they will invite the same players multiple times (at least I hope so).

Bad.

Ret already failed out of A because he apparently doesn't know how to make units.

Huk deserved it.

Haypro and Moonglade are alright but there were better options.

Maybe all the other 'good' options should go give it a go in Korea, like these guys. These 4 are the top 4 foreigners on the ladder in Korea as far as I can tell (besides Idra/Jinro), and are all in Korea already. They all invested time and energy into getting into the GSL on merit, whereas other progamers who are 'better' options have not invested that same time. For this reason, I respect GSL's decision in this regard.

I think he deserves it more then Ret or Haypro because he won a lot of tournaments (IEM, Nordic EPS, monthly ESL final, DSRack LAN, ...). I don't know much about Moonglade and his success (beside IEM) tbh.
And I hope and think they didn't look at the race. It doesn't matter that he's terran.
But maybe it's just because he can't go to korea in time. I hope there will be an official statement of the GSL soon.

Meh, whatever this is good news. I'm sure they can all do potentially well in GSL and I'll be cheering for them.

Though I have nothing against Ret personally, I don't understand how he deserved that invitation. He has had a lot of chances in the GSL already, and lost some disappointing games. His attitude towards Zerg has also not been particularly cheerful, if I remember correctly he said that he has no clue how to beat Protoss. What's the point of inviting him as a foreigner representative if he is likely to lose early?

I think someone like Sjow who is really hungry for victories right now and shows consistent improvement would be a more appropriate candidate to represent foreigners.

Anyway, good luck to all of them!

mOOnGLaDe probably has won more tourneys in the SEA server than anyone else, he's very successful. I was just joking about the race thing.

Well the competition on SEA is way weaker though than on Europe and the IEM victory was just a Bo5 vs Loner if I`m not mistaken.

Ret is the worst of the invitees. He lost ugly//badly in Code A, I don't understand why he deserves a Golden Ticket back into the big show.
