Its so awesome for all the parties involved. WMF get 2 great players that will definitely strengthen their squad and allow them to compete in the GSTL, and Naniwa and Thorzain get some good practice and the chance to shine on a team, as opposed to being benched most games on an already star studded team.

Any word on where they'll be living? I'd assume in the GOMtv foreigner house, but thats pretty full with the FXO guys and Torch, or the WeMade house, where I presume Fox, Lyn and Soccer live.

Looking down the list of MLG finishers I'd guess Slush is the 3rd player. He was the 2nd highest placing foreigner and didn't join Complexity in the merge with Root, which would be explained if he new he was going to Korea. The only other players in the top 16 who haven't already been to Korea, haven't already got some form of training house outside of Korea or aren't already in Korea are Major and possibly Fenix, depending on whats happening to the Root house. (I'd guess its staying as it was before the merge)

No offense to huk but I think if he could make code S both of these guys will be able to do it too.

And WMF.....first I was like wtf why them do they even have enough players....oh wait. Since they won't have enough playErs, our foreign heroes will have a much higher chance or being fielded!

Gl guys!

I think they will always get to play (atleast 100% if the end up losing the series as a team).
Only Lynn andMMoon are from wemadefox right? Liquipedia page says they also have SocceR but idk if that is accurate. Never heard of him but he can still get to play, he did try to qualify for the latest GSL hmm.. so then atleast 1 of our guys, who will probably get picked over SocceR anyway
It's Bo7 format in the round robin stage, and then afterwards top 3 of each group advances. In which Bo9 gets played. They would have just the right amount with 5 players. But again what up with Soccer. And they will have to beat 3 of the following teams: slayers, prime, tsl, ogs, mvp. Gonna be some awesome games.

That's why it's awesome, as much as I want them to be in winning teams like IM, but they already have enough new players waiting in line to make their debut in the GSTL that the chance of foreigners making an appearance will be slight to none. While WMF still has decent players, enough room for new ones, and all of these guys play WC3 XD.

Man, that's really great! I'm hoping for great results for Thorzain, Naniwa and the whole WMF-Team. Good luck to you!

And yeah, the sheer amount of foreigners from Sweden in Korea is really impressive.

A lot easier said than done.

Need to win ro32 and 16... and then either

1) Win Code A (highly unlikely, seeing as some amazing players like MMA are still down there

2) Go to up-and-down pool play and beat some stars there (4th place in pool Code S, other Code A's).

Will be hard. Not going to rule it out. My guess is for first season Naniwa makes it to Code S, Thorzain/SaSe is gonna get stuck in Code A, Sheth (assuming he gets the third MLG spot because technically the spot should fall to him, and yes I know he plays for FXO) going to drop out of Code A unfortunately

Can't tell if you're trolling, Code S is much better than Code A. MMA is amazing but he did have two Bo3 chances to get to Code S and lost 2-0 to HuK. Jinro San also fell. Sure Naniwa and Thorzain are good but do they match up to Nada/MKP/MC? Not really.

lets just hope they don't have to play mma next code A before ro8.

some notable people who are/could be in code A next season
mma
ryung
san
DRG
stc
min
line


naniwa has a better chance to do well because none of those are vP specialist, while if thorzain runs into mma his chances look bleak.

any one know when the code A qualifiers are?

Code A Tournament should not be underestimated. Even Code B is full of closet gosus like DRG, MMA, oGsHero, MVP_HwangSin ect. And that's without even mentioning the code S giants who have dropped down. Thorzain and Naniwa are both very good players but they will likely have extremely tough matches every step of the way.
I could spend a while with that smile

Technically, if you count the RO8 of the super tourney, Code A and Code S divided it up pretty evenly. If MMA wins this GSL, which is highly likely, then dropping out in ups and downs is really not a big deal.

And by better I mean better for the spectators, foreigner vs Koreans are always the best show in my eyes.

By the way, it seems like I was wrong, nani and tzain are going to play in august, so by that time I'd imagin MMA Ryung and DRG will be in code S alrdy...
