They have all been in Code-S other than Naniwa (IdrA, HuK and Jinro respectively), and after Naniwa's run in the TSL and going undefeated through the open bracket to win MLG, it's hard to say he isn't at least deserving of a chance to throw down in Code-S also. edit; I don't expect the MLG winning incumbent in Code-S to be a slouch. The thing with Code S is that it's 32 players around 25-30 of which are top drawer, top 10 at their race in the world players. So even if you're good like Naniwa is, it's really easy to get crushed in Code S and find yourself in up and down looking like a chobo as MVP, San, Jinro, MC, Nestea, MKP and other quite clearly phenomenal players have done. Winning Code S is extremely difficult as there's so little room for error. Look at Jinro, his only crime was losing to Nestea twice and he went to up and down. That's how unforgiving the format is. MLG has some great players but a lot of not so great, and it's double elimination. There's a big leap in the consistancy of talent between the two tournaments, so predicting anyone to win or reach the latter stages of Code S is really unpredictable, foreigner or Korean. | ||

Hope someone at MLG responds. ![[image loading]](http://imageshack.us/m/854/7086/streamu.jpg) http://streamworksint.com/ They have a new partnership for the broadcasting at least, hopefully it works out well =) | ||

We are releasing all of our post Dallas improvements, fixes, and just general information very soon. It will cover the streams, commentary, and the live event. We did not hide our heads and hope the issues went away. We went out and did everything we could to make sure it never happens again, and improved a lot of things along the way. | ||

Stay tuned for announcement next week about new streaming stuff. Sundance wasn't kidding when he tweeted that we were revamping the whole thing and bringing in a bunch of new infrastructure. It'll be solid. More news to come. Edit and what @MLG_Adam said. | ||
