Imagine a team with 3 Code S players and 0 Code A players. It would be 4.8. A team with 5 Code A players would be in whereas this team with 3 Code S players would be out. With the qualify system used in GSL, they should award more points for having more Code S, not simply an 1.6 multiplier.

Maybe they should just expand this league a little. We could see lotsa new faces that way. Only 8 teams is a bummer too.

the main problem there would be that there are only like 10-12 teams or something in the gsl of which liquid and FOX don't have enough players afaik

maybe after a few GSTLs they will change the qualification process, just as they did with the GSL as soon as things stabilized

They could just make it a 16 team single elim (making it an easy expansion on the 8 team single elim).

11 Korean Teams + the 5 teams in the TeSL.

Something to think about.

Am i being insane or is it still possible for IM to qualify if MVP get's back into Code S tomorrow that will make it 3 x 1.6 + 1 = 5.8

which is more than fOu's 5.6.

Bel'shir beach looks like a very beautiful map asthetically, is it balanced though? i hope so purely because of how pretty it looks, will be a pleasure to spectate games on it.

Well they're not in because they didn't deserve to be.

It's a team league, not a "lets hope Nestea/Losira/MVP can all-kill for us league". They're not amongst the top-performing teams in the GSL, so they were excluded.

Rules are rules, man. IM is my favourite team, but I totally understand.

It seems bizarre to say that a team that won the first team league and got to the finals of the second team league doesn't "deserve" to be in. I think GOMTV knows their own rules for deciding how each team qualifies for the team league are a little off when they say they're looking into solutions to what happened (although not changing anything for May, which is understandable)


What I'm saying is, the rules have been the same from the beginning. All the teams have always been aware of these rules. If you want to be in the GSTL, you need a lot of representation in the GSL. IM let themselves down by not making the cut in that regard.

I don't think they should get preferential treatment due to past performances.

I think Nestea and MVP fit the picture but Losira should be shopped as a mega nerd :D

I'll ignore this Teamleague, cause the best team won't participate.
I don't want to offend Zenex or MVP, but these teams doesn't show interesting matchups like, IMMvp, NesTea, Losira, etc...

They can't just change the rules to make popular teams get carried through. IM knew they were hanging by a thread last GSTL (they were 8th on points going into it?) yet they didnt make efforts to poach players from other teams that are in Code A / Code S so they had the points to continue.

It is IM's own fault that they aren't in the team league, GOM is just sticking to the rules that were set at the start of the team leagues.



Looking forward to seeing team MVP play, Keen is a gun but the rest of their lineup I don't know too well. Really hoping to see some up and coming stars.

As always I'm cheering for ST and SlayerS too.

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?


Perhaps the fact that they won the first team league, made the finals of the only other team league, and had players in the finals of both Code A and Code S?

Don't even try to argue that IM doesn't deserve to be in the GSTL.

Shame it isn't counting points earned from this GSL, with Nestea in the finals and all.
