the rules need a revamp, some team's players suck in individual leagues but are good in team league (canata/really anyone?). its pretty dumb that your team league performance isn't even considered at all, nevermind the fact that you won one

my bet for this season actually goes to prime dunno if anyone agrees but i think they can beat MVP easily and same goes with ST/oGs if they have to face oGs they will just send out BitByBit to kill mvp and thats it lol the finals should be vs TSL/Slayers then and i dont think they can beat them either so... GOGOGO MKP and the rest | ||

I honestly believe that in future GSTL's that the team cutoff is increased to 10. From there the 4 teams with the lowest GSTL qualification points would play in a wild-card round to determine the eight teams that move on to the next round. The previous GSTL finalists would be exempted from playing in the wild-card round if they had the lowest points, case in point IM. From there we can continue on just like it would be with more games and matches which excites the fans. | ||

Sad to see IM not qualify, but rules are rules. I'm sure they'll be back next season. | ||

What they should do is count oGs and Liquid' as one team so we can the occasional Jinro/HuK action in there ![]() | ||

Look at when MLG announced their tournament system, there was A LOT of discussion around it immediatly after it got announced. I do find it weird that the teams don't get additional points for performance in the team league itself however. | ||

They had a whole slew of Protoss players qualifying for this seasons Code A (but all got knocked out in the first round - Lure, Avenge, Finale). Keen is a player who just advanced to Code S and looks like a pretty good Terran. Noblesse finished Ro16 for Code A twice. Both of them have been on top of the KR ladder for awhile now (Noblesse = CutefOu). viOlet reached the Ro8 for Code A and is scheduled to play in the Up/Down matches tomorrow. Another player who has yet to qualify for Code A, but has been making waves is DongRaeGu, a Zerg who many have watched stream (Xeph's stream). He might be interesting to watch out for in the GSTL. So they do actually have a pretty good roster. If anything ZeNEX or fOu should have been removed, but unfortunately the rules were already in place since the GSL 2011 Tour was announced and IM just should have done better to qualify for the individual GSL. Hopefully now GOM will make a change to the system. | ||

Violet deserves to be mentioned. His ZvZ looked pretty good against Coca, and he's in an all Zerg group in the up/downs which means he'll most likely make it into code S as well. He also had an epic ZvT vs MVP on Terminus where he had a good shot at winning. | ||

Things are not always consistent so every now and then something like this just happens. The 99% other times you would replay the previous GSL IM would get enough points to make it in. That's why it's a good system. I hate it when a good rule is seen as a bad rule simply because it did not serve its purpose one time. I think anyone with some common sense can see the qualification system for GSTL is fair and objective. Good rules must serve their purpose the majority of the time. No rule allows for 100% good results. But the rules aren't good. A major Code S player is not worth only 60% more than a Ro32 Code Aer. What they should do is base it off total team gsl points. MPV has 10504 Nestea has 4749 LosirA has 1030. That's 16,283 for IM. Team MVP has 2,211 from 10 different players. | ||
