As of right now the 4 Koreans will get the following points coming out of Columbus

20th =180
19th=190
18th= 200
17th= 210
If they fail to even move up (highly unlikely)


Lets just say for the sake of argument. they move into the 6 -10 spot at the end of the rounds

650, 600, 550,490

Then next at Anahiem.

4 more Koreans come and take the next 4 spots. Now its 8 spots taken

I understand its a numbers game but I can see where it might run out of control.

http://forums.majorleaguegaming.com/topic/224756-2011-pro-circuit-rank-points/

(This is where I'M getting my numbers from)

Right now QXC and Painuser are just under the cut for top 20. I kinda think its a little unfair for them to get muscled out for the sake of Esports.

Heck even Tyler might get nudged out since he is sitting at 16th with 250 points, if he only picks up 16th again (sorry man not trying to Jinx ya) He only gets 250. Leaving him only 500 to go into Anahiem with. This could mean he gets knocked down into the open brackets. Technically he should still be 16-20th, but with 4 more Koreans on the way it takes up those 4 spots.

Just giving my 2 cents.





I don't think they're going to put koreans in 4 at a time for every competition. MLG would turn into GomLG.

I'll never understand why MLG switched to this format, not that their old format was perfect but the way seeding is done in this one is silly. I love the idea of group play however the way players are seeded and how hard it is for anyone to move up/down in seed is kind of ridiculous. (No blame on the players, purely the seeding format).

Yep, they plan on inviting them to each competition, if I'm reading it right.

Naniwa will win his group so hard that there is no second place. Same with Bomber, Losira and MMA.

Wow at group C. Not as bad as the ultimate group of Death (jaedong, flash, bisu, xxx), but pretty close.

Every event moving forward will have 4 GSL Pro's invited. So those pro's that attend will accrue rank points, but don't confuse rank points with seeding.

Only 4 invited spots exist. If a GSL pro who previously attended an MLG comes in addition to the 4 invited pro's then of course we would recognize their rank points. Each league is putting up a travel, accommodations and expenses for the other league's players in the invited spots only.

Not to be harsh, but to be blunt and clear, if MLG invites 4 GSL Pro's and a 5th Pro decides to come, they're on their own financially, and their seeding falls where it may according to the MLG rank points they have accrued.

Our hope is to invite many different players from GSL to compete and give many different MLG players a chance to compete at GSL. It is, after all, a League Exchange Program.

The group selection process, is it something new or a traditional method? Looks to me like they arbitrary ranked the players and created the most uneven groups. Group C is ez for nani and maybe rightly so because he won the last MLG but that doesn't explain Group C. I believe the big ranking problem is that the Koreans got the worst ranking even though they might be some of the best players.

Im not sure you get that right. MLG will pay the travel and acomodation for 4 koreans. If more want to come to the next MLG they would have to pay for themselves traveling cost. Im just curious how will the next batch of koreans will be decided on? If the players who already came could come again and so on.

Thank you Lee.

So if the 4 players do get points and get ranked. Those 4 players are welcome back but MLG is not flipping the bill. Just the 4 new players. It would behoove those players' teams to send them out again so they could stay in contention with the other players though.

Just so I got it clear.

If I look on the flip side of this, the 4 players going to Korea will live out there for a month or so as they battle. GSL will pay for their lodging and plane, but if they stay in Code A or S will GOMtv continue to support them or will they have to come home due to lack of income?

shame HuK and Socke cant make it. But im shocked that sheth only got in cos of this hes awesome

it doesnt matter how easy/hard each group looks, these are all top players. No group will be easy. Some easier then others, yea, but none easy.

@archonOOid nani in group A not C? and they dont arbitarily rank them, its base off last MLG results if you actually read the first post
