While a team full of mediocre players like Choya, Leenock and Sc get a spot, what a joke. | ||

Having the two (arguably) best SC2 players (Nestea and Mvp) does not automatically make your team the best, and its time for IM to face the consequences of having relied on those two players for so long without having their other players post any significant 1v1 results. | ||

The problem with this argument is that IM is already proven to be the best team, because they won the first GSTL, and placed 2nd in the last GSTL we have had. No other team has come even close to these accomplishments, which were a team effort. | ||

"if IM was the best team, they'd be in". This is indicative of an untrained or stupid-but-educated brain. Why do you simply assume that MAX(1.6y + 1x) maximises our skill/performance expectation for a given team? This is an arbitrary model plucked out of thin air and no body has demonstrated that those teams that score higher are better or will perform better in GSTL. In fact past performance of IM serves to debunk this model quite thoroughly (unless they're an outlier). Not that I blame them they need something like this to prevent subjective and unfair selection but your assertion was plain ridonculous. | ||

So many weak teams are able to qualify by flooding code A with very weak players. GOM should really think about fans before coming up with ridiculous non sensical formulas. People don't wanna pay to watch code A no namer dropouts. | ||

While a team full of mediocre players like Choya, Leenock and Sc get a spot, what a joke. SC is not a mediocre player anymore! He is a force to be reckoned with after reaching Ro4 Code S and forced Nestea to play till the 5th set. | ||

Nestea, MVP, Lorisa, IMNuts + Show Spoiler + Nestea is in the finals for GSL agian. MVP was in the finals came second(Code a) Lorisa RO8 IMNuts RO16 They deserve to be in there imo. If you want the best games than you need the best gamers and IM has them. Fact. | ||
