Uhh...how about using individual player statistical points rather than just QUANTITY of players in each team. Seriously...IM team should just bribe one of those players from the other team to join them just to get 1 additional player to compete.

honastly if they tallied up the totals AFTER the up and down matches this would not have been a problem as MVP would most likely been in code S but excluding IM is not goms fault but MVPs fault for losing three series inna row and falling to code A he was the difference maker in the last GSTL that gave them their spot and in this one in losing their spot

If thats the case then WAIT!. And didn't Keen get counted as a code S player in the points?

Since there are 10 "full" teams in korea, why don't they just change the format a bit to have those 2 more teams as well?

whats the point in not letting IM join? isnt this supposed to support esports and have the "TOP" teams play?


Top teams get decided by results. Surely you can't be considered a top team if you don't have the current results to back it up. The other teams that are ahead of IM have proven, by showing results, that they are indeed a top team. I do agree that IM is a very good team, but if they aren't proving it consistantly then where is the credibility?


Nestea is about to win this finals. MVP took second place in code a. Losira got ro8 code s. They made the finals of both team leagues and won one of them.

The writing on the wall for this has been around for the past couple months, but it's still a bit surprising to see it happen. If there were 12 full-size teams there would be an easy solution, but for now I don't think I would have made a different choice than Gom did. Maybe they should institute automatic qualifying positions for the finalists next time though.

Goddamn it, ST vs. oGs first round. Two of my favourite teams. T^T

I'll be rooting for ST I guess. But I'm hoping the series goes 4-3. =)

Naming yourself MVP doesn't guarantee your team a GSTL seed, you have to win, and he's been choking lately. I for one am excited to see more undiscovered talent.

Bleh... No IM. Go SlayerS, then!
I honestly think that finalists of last season should be automatically seeded in to the tournament, regardless of the points.
Also if they counted the points at the end of the season fOu wouldn't have made it in as they only have one player in the GSL remaining, which is sC, everyone else fell in the first round, I think.

Some of you say IM doesn't have the results to compete but you do remember that they won the first GSTL and placed 2nd in second GSTL. They should give some rank points for placing 1st or 2nd in GSTL and that would solve this problem.

I don't know if anyone noticed but in the last GSTL, IM was the 8th placed team.

They were hanging on by a thread as it was. Too bad Seed didn't get into GSL T.T

Wow that's pretty big IM isn't in there, but I guess it was in a fair way.

SlayerS Fighting!

Edit: And yeah whatever happened to SEED? Wasn't he invited to the Gretech SC2 All-Stars event thing back in I think November 2010? Did he not qualify for GSL 2011?

Well at least they have the balls to be fair even though they knew it's going to be unpopular. Good job Gretech. Fair play ftw.

couldn't they have counted it after all the up and downs were finished? wouldn't that have mathematically allowed IM in?

Well, I guess there's a disadvantage of being too top heavy. Should add more motivation for players to qualify

Glad GOMTV stuck to the rules and put MVP in there instead of IM.

As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities.
