you know what, i would really like to see machine do well. Seems like he cares quite a bit and maybe just needed the team house to really get that practice in. Of course Nani too
Machine Fighting!

I'm hoping Tester gets rocked. One of the few Koreans I can't stand.

Last MLG showed that this is simply not the case, even though I'm not too happy with seeding either.
For example, Tyler and Cruncher ended up going through the open bracket and look how well they did in their groups?

It has been explained countless times: MLG needs a core group of pro-gamers who come to each MLG to make this thing work. Look at MVP. Comes one time, decides to just not come again. There has to be some sort of "reward" for players who repeatedly show up and perform well to at least some extent. I would be very bad for the average esports fan if each MLG had completely different pool play.

i dont understand if HuK and Incontrol had same points how are they in the same pool should incontorl be in the very next pool?

Nice to see they invited a Protoss in Tester!!!

I would not like to bein Group A!!!! really hard group and Group D, Idra and Bomber should be 1 and 2 in theirs no problem.

With the Korean invites, there should be a requirement before the Korean accepts the invite: Be able to attend more than 1 MLG in a row. Since all Korean invites can win the first prize, or even runner-up, someone like MVP running in and taking 1st then never coming back is sort of gay.

I wonder if the Koreans came back, would they all be seeded? It would be funny if for the national finals, you saw the return of MC, Losira, MVP, bomber, mma ... We would literally have a Kprean top 12

The guy has been a constant disappointment since release. Him and FD put forth just enough effort to not get laughed out of SC2 altogether. It feels like he's the kind of guy who takes advantage of his fans instead of being driven and encouraged by them.

I am crying tears of joy. I will be taking Friday and Monday off from work and will enjoy this MLG to the max.

I hope I can watch both streams on HD this MLG, I just f'ing love HD .
I also hope there will be 3 caster duo's this time, still on 2 streams but then they can keep the 2 streams running different games all day. It would be better for the casters as well.

I love all players, I love the story around iNcontrol. He will be in pool play till the end of this season and will get shit over him every damn tournament. Which is on one hand understandable but on the other hand, iNcontrol did as much for Esports as Artosis did. I wouldn't mind to see either of these 2 in pool play EVERY MLG.

Liquid will have a chance to shine and take at least 1 first place.

DONRAEGU IS BACK!! I am so happy.

EG.Idra his ZvZ is sometimes lacking, on his stream it sometimes looks like a coinflip. A feeling I never have when he plays against T. Unless he plays vs DDE and leaves on 3 bases and without losing 1 unit .

Bomber and Nada? Hell yeah!

Coca, please show us good zerg games. You have to replace Nestea!

And last, Protoss players, I hope you do well this tournament. Except against zerg .
I had a good night of sleep.

Yea, I kinda feel that way too now. It used to be every time I saw his name I got super hyped. Now I'm just disappointed. :\

Eh he did quite well the last GSL no? in fact he was top 3 protoss in terms of result last gsl. In the GSL ranking he is also 18th which makes him the top 5 protoss. Pretty unfair to be hating on him. In terms of results he is at least up there.

The only disappointment was he missed on GSL 2 and 3 because he kept getting 1-1-1 ed during the qualifier. But overall he did pretty well since. He has not fallen to FD's standard yet.

Yeah Tester isn't as bad as FD, but I feel like if he took his practise more seriously he could do a lot better.

So MMA was invited even though he would've come with his own (sponsor's) funds, hence occupied one invitational spot needlessly, but this time MVP is not invited because he comes on his own funds and thus does not occupy a slot? Can anybody explain that to me??
And machine>rain make me sad. Too bad the rules say so, why not decide by past finishing like "pro"-player if tie between online points??

Nevertheless definitely looking forward to this event, but I hope somebody can answer.


MVP is not coming. DRG plays for the team MVP who has a partnership with complexity.


Oh, nevermind then, guess I didn't pay enough attention... <.<
Crap, why is he not coming? He is the reigning champion!

Wow, tester & coca are surprise choices. I don't think they'll be as dominant as the previous koreans (but then i didnt expect ganzi & rain to do so well.. hmm..). Sad that the previous winners are not coming though
