Well this was always going to happen the question just was when? I think both Nani and Thorzain will prove to be excellent competitors in Code A and I am glad to see them going sooner rather than later as I feel the skill level of the majority of korean progamers is starting to increase rapidly with all of the team houses about and I think sadly they may greatly surpass all foreigners. I hope these guys and our pros from TL can prove me wrong! :D

Also, doesn't each team in GSTL need to have 8 players so... WeMade FOX will have... a lot of guys that we have never heard of?

Anyone know who the third player will be for Code A? Someone mentioned Slush, which I think is a bit of a surprise, although he did have an impressive run at MLG Columbus. LOL if it's IdrA.

This is amazing. NaNi/Thor would definitely be two of my top choices for who I'd like to see compete in Korea.

Do some work guys. GL HF!

IdrA got to the Round of 8 in GSL Code S. There isn't anything to not be sure about. It's already occurred.

I think ThorZain and NaNi can do very well for themselves too. Looking forward to watching them progress.

Much credit to naniwa and thorzain for actually wanting to improve themselves and challenge themselves.

Thorzain will do great I think.

you do know Idra was in the GSL for a long time right? He qualified for every single one and made ro32 minimum each time. Furthest he got was ro8 when he lost to jinro.

He won't go to korea anyway he already said no as he left when he was in code S why would he go back and go to code A?

I do wonder who the third one well be though, would be cool if it was slush :D
When I think of something else, something will go here

A few points to be made:
From the Scheduale it seems Nani and Thorz will only participate in teh GSTL during GSL august, wich willl put it after MLG Anaheim, So there whould be another 3 Code A invites to foreginers by then
So F.United should easily have around 8 players to feild.

Does this also mean Nani and Thorzain will not participare in Code A during July, but rather in Agust?
I wonder i that case wich Code A tournamante SaSe will participate in then....

Another thing to consider, with the new Scheduale for GSL (A/S/TL) Code A Ro32 and R16 is played during the first 5 days of the season. Meaning any foreginer participateing that won't make it to up and down matches (Ro8) only has to stay for the first week. This should make the Code A invite from MLG alot more attractive. At worst you get a Paied week in Korea, at best you get a month with a shot at the Code S up and Down matches.

Once... they were mortal enemies, at each other's throats fighting for champion of TSL3 in SC2 and other fine games.

Now... they must put aside their past differences and animosities ("Terran imba!") in order to become comrades and win the team league.

Soon... a wonderful friendship will blossom, one that will transcend ages. PvT imbalances will be set aside. Previous competitions will be forgotten. A dynamic duo will be created from Naniwa and Thorzain that perhaps will someday become the Swedish Tastosis, assuming they take up casting.

I'm salivating at this very thought. Quite excited about this news.
