This is such an absurd way to pick players for the biggest SC2 league in the world. Do you really want to relegate the entire international SC2 scene to a popularity contest?

The question is, do these invites get handed out before or after the open code A qualifiers? i'd rather we see people in korea like; huk, haypro, + Show Spoiler +
ret
, sen, select just get in through the open tourny if they can, so we can invite new blood, and then if someone like huk doesnt make it through give him one of the invites.

He is right, this is even more random than a simple best of 1 tourney.

Actually there is nothing random about it, and it's a great way to make sure IN ADDITION TO THE STANDARD CODE A TOURNAMENTS that exciting players get a chance to go to Korea. Also nowhere in his post does Junkka say that they will pick the players who get the most votes in this thread. It's called feedback, and if you can't appreciate a community friendly organization like the GSL then you really don't know anything.

I think huk is a little overrated (sorry for the rage i'm gonna cause) and I would much more like to see haypro get an invite

To be honest, I really dislike this idea - if a player already in Korea someone fails qualification they then get a place because their a foreigner? Just sounds really bad.

Also the question is who is WORTHY. I would love to see players like DeMuslim and BratOK in Code A, but if your surely you must go for players who have proved themselves in tournament and ladder play, and this would mean SjoW and Dreamhack winner Naama, even tho, personally it is my
feeling that DeMuslim and BratOK would perform better.

Tyler has repeatedly stated it is his intention to play in North America, and I would assume with TLAF-Liquid he has already had, and turned down, the opportunity to go to South Korea, so suggesting him seems pointless.

To me, ROOT.qxc is the most obvious choice, although how playing in GSL Code A would fit into him studying in Spain may mean that is a no go.

I think Huk, Haypro, Sen, and Terran TLO. I think these four guys and maybe incontrol are the most well rounded foriegners that arent in code a already. I see a lot for Sjow and I gotta say, his lack of scouting would make him very weak in Korea imo. And also TLO as terran is probably S class in skill level.

I wish this decision was left to artosis tbh because he actually pays alot of attention to the foreign scenes from what i understand, watches all mlg+ dreamhack, regularly watches replays from go4sc2 and zotac aswell

It's not like they're going to choose the player with mose votes or whatever, they're just asking for some feedback before they make their [own] decision. I hardly think that's a bad idea.

If Huk isn't invited I'm boycotting Gom. John... please invite Huk.

So they are asking our opinions so they can not use our opinions? It doesn't matter if they take the people with the most votes here or not, if a bunch of goobers typing out names on a forum factors into their decision in the slightest it's a dumb idea.

Let's say they don't follow tournaments outside of Korea all that well. In order to get a better grasp, they ask a community what players they like/think are the best (popular players are good to gain popularity for a tournament as well). They get a list of x names and then check out their vods/replays to determine what players are best suited to be invited. Doesn't seem like a terrible idea to me.

I feel that HuK is the absolute no. 1 choice. For the three others.. Incontrol, Sen and qxc perhaps?
