Also, if Nestea wins code S would that give them enough points to top fOu? (No pressure on Nestea if it does XD) | ||

I need to understand more about how their metric worked, does it only factor current code s and a players? I think having a formula where you take the summation of each team's individual players gom points makes more sense. MVP and Nestea are both very close to the top of that. The team league in the past has also been a lot of showcasing all of these unknown players and giving them a platform to begin to prove themselves. How awesome was it to see Min (a player that no one really knew at that point) absolutely demolish Inca. Or see a player like Bomber debut. Now it seems like it's stacked in favor of players that we already know from the gsl and I find that boring honestly. | ||

On the positive side of things. MVP is in and we can expect some crazy ceremonies if they win. Bothe MVPKeen and MVPGenius have had some hilarious ceremonies. | ||

I would love to see Fnatic compete against the Korean teams in a GSTL. It'd be awesome if Fnatic, Dignitas, Liquid, and Mouz/EG would send 4-5 players and have a big team thing against Koreans! | ||

From a fan perspective too, the fans want to see MVP, Nestea, and Losira play a helluva lot more than anyone on fou. Can't deny that, good sir. Perhaps GOM will factor in tournament results for the next GSTL. | ||

Yet IM players have consistently performed better. I definitely consider IM one of the top teams. But when it comes to qualifying for the format, they fall short. These other teams have put up the results so they've earn/qualified their stay. Its just that IM hasn't earned enough for this format. Its not like i disagree with you. I do think IM is probably a top 3 team. But again, its the format. Who has the most points. | ||
