Pretty Much or another Korean that isn't in Code S(Liquid Hero). Every other Korean will already be in Code S assuming Tester doesn't play in the up/down matches and Rain is banned from GSL for 1 year.


Rain can play in the next GSL

http://www.majorleaguegaming.com/news/mlg-raleigh-starcraft-2-rosters-and-pools

The StarCraft 2 pro roster is locked, and we have our Top 20 and Pool lineup for Raleigh. And…well, to put it mildly, this is going to be interesting. MVPDongRaeGu and FnaticRain have decided to return on their own, separate from the four players invited through the League Exchange, and so have been seeded according to their Rank Points. We have STBomber, ZeNex CoCa, STTester, and none other than oGsNada confirmed as our GSL pro players. And Naniwa and Huk are in the same Pool.

[image loading]

Note about tiebreakers: Huk and InControl had the same number of Rank Points going into this Event. By rule, ties between pro players are broken by their performance in the previous Event; therefore, Huk is seeded higher.

Machine and Rain were also tied, but do not have the Rank Points to be considered pro players. Ties between non-pro players are broken first by Online Rank Points, and then randomly. Since neither player had any Online Rank Points, a randomization was performed that granted Machine the higher seed.



Damn, I cant beleive for the 2nd str8 MLG machine and iNcontrol aren't gunna play each other


Yeah. Another MLG where neither of them will be able to win a single match in group play ;(

A statement on why MVP is not coming back would be nice, considering he was confirmed by mr. chae already.

It is great to see players like Rain and DRG come back, I think MLG should really give themselves a pat on the back for having Koreans come through other ways that are not the league exchange program. Korean players are definitely seeing the excitement that an event like MLG brings and they want to be a part of that, even if it meas potentially losing money.

How can people think Ret is going to beat NaDa. like whaaaa?

NaDa...the guy who gets Ro8 or Ro4 pretty much EVERY GSL. The most consistent SC1 player and one of, if not the most consistent SC2 player is going to blow away his group easy.


Yea, like Assembly.....

In all seriousness tho, I think Nada is the favourite to get out of tht group but i could see him losing some games in tht group and maybe even a match. Nada has shown some sloppy play recently in his Ro32 matches and at Assembly. Of course, he is still Nada.

this is the easiest path for DRG to get code S, most other koreans are already in Code S and no fearsome TvZ Terrans except for Bomber.

grrr was expecting at least one top top top player from any race (MC, MVP, Nestea). GSL is really where it is at.

I hope to see how Idra (and the rest of EG) improved due to the team house, I also want to see QXC and the rest of FXO going at it again, they imrpoved a lot by being in Korea, and I hope that the extra month will show dividends.

He wants to focus on GSL, not that strange.
It's also not out of this world that he can beat Nestea and advance to the finals, especially after Nestea's loss to MMA and barely making it out because Happy ran over banes, shows he's not unbeatable and MVP has great TvZ.
Makes sense for him to not come.

Tyler is breaking back into Pool play this MLG. I'm sure of it!

And for Ret Vs Nada.
Ret has been playing so amazingly lately, I think he has a chance versus literally anyone.

Well technically rain is living in new york now so he's actually going to be in a lot more foreign events i think... and DRG coming probably has a lot to do with being apart of complexity now. it is pretty awesome though that they're coming.

would be nice to see slayers coming back on their own.

Group A is insane, whoever tops that has done well. Apart from Incontrol, poor guy will have a rough ride I think.

Nada will likely make top 2 but he can definitely lose to Ret.

I think Nada's performance will depend highly on when he drops out of Code S. The sooner he does, the more time he'll have to prepare for MLG.

You have to place top 3 for a code S spot. So if DRG is 4th, and 1-3 has code S, he still wouldn't get it.

Well I now read he was only banned for 2 GSL Seasons. But since he skipped the opening GSL Code S July ceremony, didn't his banned begin until GSL Code S August?

You were supposed to invite Nestea to Raleigh so I could give him a hug and steal his powers ^_^

Is T-ZaiN ever competing in an MLG again?



Open bracket apparently is run so it is pretty hard to get adequate toilet and refreshment breaks, problems with getting food because you have to be on standby, and just generally really bad playing conditions. That's the impression I've got from reading a few blogs about it.

I think he has overreacted to one bad experience and it's a shame.

Yeah. He went through the open bracket in Dallas, which was probably the worst event, especcially for those in the open bracket.

The problem is that by not going to Anaheim he lost his seed, so now he has to go through the open bracket if he decides to go again, and with the open bracket getting harder each event I can't see him going through it again this season if he turned down a seeded place already.

Or it could be Mousesports. It seems odd that Morrow hasn't come since Dallas either, but maybe they both just didn't enjoy it.
