SC2 MLG groups for Anaheim are out! - Page 4

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.

not true

just use it when Socke is taken (like everywhere)

Weird could have sworn you said you did it for pronunciation when you were on SOTG. Guess I remembered wrong.

He said he didn't like how it was run, and he wasn't treated well basically.

Any source on this? I'm curious to know what he specifically didn't like.

The only player that forfeited his position is Thorzain. Strange that he would give up his spot. Does it conflict with when he heads to Korea?

He didn't like playing at Columbus.

He's heading to Korea same time as Naniwa, so if Nani can come, Thorzain could as well.

Does MMA not get to use the placement points he earned?

He's being sent back to Anaheim. Will the top 16 change?

He'll take up a GSL spot so his trip is paid for instead of SlayerS having to front the money.

He posted it right here on TL on his fanclub page i think and he said he would return to MLG if he was seeded in to the championship pool.

And im not sure if HuK has more seed points or thorzain declined his invite like some people said.

NaNiwa isn't in this MLG? He leaves for Korea on July 18th?

I didn't blame MLG, I just think its a damned shame!! - However, TLO won't be ready probably, so it's not _that_ bad really

Looks like MMA, Losira, MC, Moon and Thorzain weren't seeded into the top 16. Inviting MMA again seems pretty dumb considering he was already third seed. MLG is paying him to fly over again but wont give him his seed? I hope we get some clarification from MLG so this sounds a little less stupid.

The koreans didn't attend MLG as actual players they where invited into the event and don't get seed points at all.

The top korean gets re invited to the next event thats why MMA is returning Boxer is the second invite and we don't know on the other 2.

He is 1 spot above HuK in points, so he must've declined. Sad that he did :-/

He said multiple times he disliked how the tournament was run (very few breaks between matches, unsure when your next match will be so you can't really leave the venue) given how small the prize pool is. I'm sure he'll come back for like, Providence for the 50,000 but for the circuit events, will be doubtful

They need to fix the nationals and not make it an open tournament.

Looks like thorZain missed the cut for pool play by 30 points if I understand the ranking correctly?

That sucks.

Edit: I shoulda read above... damn.

Still, certainly excited for this... Group A Fighting!!! (Especially Huk... and TLO... and oh god I just don't know who to cheer for here, this is a catastrophe! I hope they all make top 4 lol).

Sockeh isn't even pronounced like Socke. :/

The e at the end is unstressed [ə] called schwa - different from the pronunciation of Sockeh, which has a stressed [e] at the end.

Please provide a source on that. I find it hard to believe they don't get seed points, because they get seed points.

Do you have an MLG source for that?

MLG's own site shows their ranking points. Looks like Losira and MC declining their invitation to me.

I like MLG so I won't even entertain the thought of them posting the lineup without asking the Korean returners first.
