sry spades.
Any confirmation on Artosis? People are saying he went down 1-2 to Goma (littleboy/kid) =(
Bah that's a shame, I've been liking Artosis a lot more recently as a player and as a caster.

Well, let's be real. It's not like there were many other foreigners eligible for the 4 available slots.

What ratio are you making the shirts with? Something like 95 fanboys and 5 fangirls?

Was artosis playing protoss or Z..?

We have plenty of fan girls, thankyou very much!

Wow thanks for the writeup, im looking forward to a more official announcement but this def satisfies my need for info for the time being

That's a bit embarrassing. The results make it look like the only way foreigners can get in is if they are given a special pass.

So close Torch, so close....

Well the people that tried to qualify are not the best we have to offer. They are good ofcourse, but they are not the best in EU/NA.

After seeing his last post being "Apparently I play oGsGGoMa first round. Wish I was using Terran in this tour lol " and no updates after that... I could only assume the worst.
I hope GOM doesnt set the brackets for foreigner kill this season.

Ret, Haypro, FXOmOOnGLaDe and Huk better not go out in first round to prove they deserved the spot to be put straight into code A

Top 192 in korea vs myself, who plays maybe 8 games a week....... Laneir who is a manager (and I beat 2-0).
There were limited spots, I have no doubt that 3/4 of the seeded players would have gotten through, its just more gaurenteed if its done this way.
Plenty of players from NA and europe could have challenged for the top spots. But really, can't be upset losing to a top 192 player from Korea.. I honestly dont think anyone in the whole net cafe had APM under 200, and everyone was very good. 80% of players had oGs or MVP jackets on...
Your comment makes a bit upset actually just because it is kind of obvious that you don't know exactly whats going on and the processes of GSL.. Spades lost to a guy in TSL, you know the same team as Julyzerg? august? And the guy did a hybrid strategy which none of us had seen before.
Like... grr.

Wasn't Torch a Startale guy?
|
yes and previous code A player
|
5 forgiengers vs 200 koreans, no suprise that they didn't make it tbh. I'm sure they can keep up with the koreans but the odds are just always stacked against them.
I have no doubt if/when players like Sjow, whitera, demuslim, et al get their butts over there that we will see more and more foreigners make it in. We just need some force of numbers!
When there are more like 10-20 foreigners out there practicing alongside their korean counterparts we will get one or two in.

From what I remember Torch was in GSL Open Season 1, he made it to the round of 32 I think. Not enough to get into code A.
EDIT: I'm wrong, he was eliminated in round of 64. Here's the vod link for those who haven't seen it: http://www.gomtv.net/2010gslopens1/vod/1031

^He lost vs SanZenith in the round of 64.

Unless Julyzerg has hopped teams very recently, he's not on TSL. He's on ST. The same goes for August.

TSL is a more impressive team anyway - Fruitdealer, Trickster (aka Tester/Seo Ki Soo), Killer (aka Sangho), etc.
