SC2 MLG groups for Anaheim are out! - Page 19

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.

I think this kind of leads to the flaw in the system, which is players that are seeded stay seeded for way too long, even if they perform very poorly. I probably should of said he should of been a seeded for this tourney, since he has enough points. But say someone does well in two tourneys and has enough points to stay seeded for an incredibly long time after doing poorly (Gretorp, and soon possibly Select), it just makes things really annoying.

hahaha it does actually look like MLG really loves to make teamkills...


Yeah group A is going to be a heart break to watch.

On topic:

The groups looks very nice still to bad for the team kills, I wonder where will Boxer be placed...
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

Odd that Incontrol is still in it. Didn't he end outside the top 16 even in the last MLG. The tourney should be more inviting to fresh blood imo.

its by points, Control secure his spot from past MLGs


I know, but I think it's a pretty flawed system.

I agree that the system has flaws, but Incontrol came 4th and 17th in this years two MLGs. He obviously has done enough to earn his spot.


Going from 4th to 17th is a really big jump. He did enough to keep his spot the first time, the second time he did not.

4th and 17th should EASILY be enough for top 16.

Eh sucks for Tyler that he has to go through the open brackets, but I am sure if he practices just as hard as he did in BW, he will be in top shape again.

Makes me pissed that a bad player like machine gets seeded but not thorzain.

Also for the thorzain fanboys, hes probably not going to anaheim now since he said in an interview that he will only go to future mlg's if he gets a seed.

Lol Gretorp isn't in the top 16, what a bad day for MLG! :D Gretorp should always be seeded because he is a baller.

what about the koreans that are top 16, if they want to come (and cover the trip themselfes) are these points not counted, or are they not allowed? some small print i am missing?

example, MC is not invited by GSL, he can travel at his own expense, but he will not be seeded, even tho he is top 16.

I'm pretty sure there's a deadline for players to sign up to attend MLG Anaheim. I don't know what that deadline date is for MLG Anaheim though.

MC would be seeded if he had confirmed he was coming before now. Now that MLG made the groups if he does decide to come later me must play through the open bracket. Just like Huk lost his seeded spot at Dallas by deciding to come to late even though he had the points.

I don't know why MLG must create the groups now especially since the person people would most likely want to practise against (GSL invite) are not revealed yet all it does is punish the Korean players who did not lose in the first week.

I'm pretty sure there's a deadline for players to sign up to attend MLG Anaheim. I don't know what that deadline date is for MLG Anaheim though.


Registration stops at 11:59pm ET on the monday, 4 days prior to the tournament start. So for this MLG event, it'll end on the 25th at 11:59pm ET.

No real group of deaths, though I guess group 1 depending on who in GSL lands there. Ret should get out of his group easy though.
