SC2 MLG groups for Anaheim are out! - Page 16

Hi everyone, MLG does it's groups by points, they've outlined how they do groups months ago before any of the events. There's no conspiracy. EG and Liquid have lots of players in the MLG Top X. Teamkills are inevitable.

Thorzain is gonna regret not going to this event when he doesn't have enough points for Providence.

Damn as I wrote that I heard that Providence is an open tournament?

I remember the doom and gloom when people were calculating the Koreans winning everything and coming back to take up all the spots (like, people were expecting 9+2 Koreans in pool play at Anaheim) - and now there's only 4+2 in pool play.

Plenty of space for NA and EU players to take home some ranking points (the prize money is not really worth mentioning for a tournament of this size).

Because the money isn't worth it. If the prize money was bigger the Koreans would go and dominate it, but for only $5000 if you win it's just not worth the travel expense.

Absolute minimal amount of mirrors in the group stage. Nice coincidence.

If thorzain wants to play a shitload of games at Providence then he doesn't need to attend the remaining regular season events.

Providence shouldn't be an open tournament, Hopefully they will change it for the 2012 season. Having Nationals be an open tournament gives less meaning to the points players are collecting from attending events.

Triple Liquid group is unfortunate, but the point system is set and should not be changed just to avoid these specifc events

Group C & D seem the easiest and Group A is hard. Group B is a wildcard. How is Idra going to perform? He can sometimes be amazing but lately hasn't always been amazing. Incontrol is the same thing. Will he focus on being a pro or has he been spending too much time coaching/casting/etc. FXOSheth. How has his training in Korea helped him? A lot? Not a lot? I expect Sjow to not do well and Group B is a real wildcard of a group.

Could maybe someone from MLG, TL or even TLO himself say some words about the TLO seeding?

On the one hand MLG_Lee said it's the final pool and there are also players that declined an invitation. This sounds as if TLO was asked already and agreed to play.

But on the other hand TLO himself said he won't be able to play SC2 for weeks or even months (which also means he has no practice). After that time, the decision will be awaited if he'll need an surgical intervention. And if he has to pause SC2 even longer.

These two things don't really fit together.

So many people mentioned this already. It would be nice to hear some facts on this issue.

What?

In IdrA's 3 MLG appearances he has taken 1st, 7th, and 4th.

He's a lock for at least 2nd in his group, depending on which Korean he gets.

Exactly.

If the format allows it, we'll probably see more Koreans make an appearance at the National Championships.

If he was to win the tournament he will not get a Code S Spot.

Code S/Code A entries are for non-korean players who place 1st/2nd/3rd and potentially 4th.

If Korean A places 1st and Foreigner B C D place 2nd/3rd/4th, each will get a Code A spot.

That is incorrect. Everyone is eligible for the Code S spot, no matter the nationality.

Only the 4 (not 3) Code A spots are reserved for non-Koreans.

He declined. He didn't like playing in the Open Bracket at Columbus.
