Though I understand your sentiments, but what has Artosis done/achieved to be chosen? Besides commentating? Hell, even Day9 doesn't deserve PLAYING in something like this to be honest, however good these are, they haven't done/qualified for any tournament (finals), haven't been up that high in any ladder so far.

Imho Huk should get a chance, obviously, the rest I don't really care about(don't consider anyone that high level who hasn't been in a GSL before.)

EDIT: Maybe Fenix though?

Artosis made it to ro32 GSL 1 after he had switched races from playing toss in beta to zerg for live because Idra told him to. Making it to ro32 puts him ahead of HuK for GSL accomplishment. IMO Artosis is a fair choice for one of the spots although many would probably find it controversial. At the very least he should be considered as a 'backup' pick if the main picks turn down the offer.

Based on foreign tournament performances I'd consider these five:
HuK
White-ra
Naama
Morrow
Dimaga

Based on GSL performance I would also consider these three:
TLO
Ret
Artosis

Surprised that Mana hasn't gotten much attention. Am I the only one who thinks he's such an impressive P? Not sure if his style will work in Korea but his games are always fabulous. If he learns how to cheese/defend cheese which is rampant in Korea, I think he definitely has a shot.

Huk and Sen for sure
Then it becomes really though
Its hard to say because everyone has their ups and downs.
Its sad that tlo and tyler dont want to go to korea.
I really think tlo is potential code S material. He missed it by a hair and has improved a lot since.
I would say either socke/qxc/mana/kiwikaki/dimaga/demuslim in this order.
Inviting Grubby would definately increase the amount of viewers/income for GOM but I dont think Grubby himself is ready for it.

Snap, forgot that! Agreed on Artosis being eligable then. Apologies.

HuK and whiteRa get my vote. Really HuK is the only "clear-cut" choice as he's actually made the effort to live in Korea to improve and barely lost out for a spot in the last open GSL.

So I guess by the same criteria incontrol would be deserving, and any other foreigner that made the trek to Korea to compete in the open GSLs but failed. Hmmm guess I'm saying it should be HuK, Select, incontrol and whiteRa just cuz I cheer for him.

I think the invites will look like this at first:

Huk
Naama
Fenix
Morrow

Simply because they are the winners of the biggest foreign tournaments so far (who aren't already Code S), since I think the original announcement of this said tournament winners. Whether or not they all actually accept due to personal obligations is up in the air, in which case they'd probably have alternates to invite who are solid performers in the tournament scene.

Is Sen willing to go back to Korea if he gets chosen? I'm surprised to see that he doesn't even seem to be in top 5 for people's choices here. Surely he should be one of the first picks based on his good performances since beta and his R32 achievement in GSL3? He was knocked out by Nestea, who is arguably one of the top 5 players in the world right now and probably the best ZvZ player. I hope people realize that he is a foreigner.

Huk is an obvious choice as he was dominating NA, is now living in Korea and seems to be doing quite well over there. He is a relatively well known figure among the Koreans as well.

This is a nice privilege for whoever gets chosen and I feel that it should go to players who will represent the foreign community well and have consistently proved their abilities to be very top outside of Korea. Incontrol would fit the former category well, but I don't think he's shown himself to be anything more than a decent foreign pro player yet, so I would not just hand him Code A. I certainly hope he qualifies through the preliminaries though.

Also, Select is a Korean. He doesn't qualify for this in case you don't know.
