Yea it's customary to invite the champ to defend his title and all, but does anyone here really think Genius has a chance? lol

There are many more Koreans I'd rather see than him. Even some foreigners.


He has a better chance than most of the invites if you ask me.


He already 2-0d MVP before.


Doesn't mean he's the better player

i feel like nestea would easily win both.


I don't know...

It was a while ago, but last time MVP played against Nestea, MVP owned Nestea.

Never count MVP out. He is GOOD, just like Nestea.

Don't get so confident MVP defeated NesTea 3-1 in GSL Jan, he can beat NesTea.

On topic:

Amazing invites, great idea by Blzzard, if only I could go to BlizzCon.
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. ♞

Arguably, the 2 best, most consistent, most popular players got invited. Can't say that happened in NA.

I don't know that this is the fairest way to select players (for other top korean pros), but I can't say I hate these selections either.

Cmon guys, its MVP and Nestea... that shit is like... cream of the crop.

MVP isn't the most consistent...Also MC is more popular than both of them combined.


This seems like a somewhat pointless debate... but I thought the most consistent players were the ones with the most GSL rank points?

Also, MC is popular for his antics and play, but Nestea and MVP have slightly better results, especially recently. If players were invited based mostly on antics, then heck... auto invite Destiny and Incontrol


Tell me how MVP has had slightly better results than MC. They both have 2 GSL championships (though one of MVP's is arguably a slightly easier championship since it didn't have the ridiculous group stages that claim so many amazing players early on, nor did it have as many rounds as MC's first championship). MC got eliminated early this season. MVP got eliminated early last season. Both are somewhat inconsistent, sometimes amazing, sometimes falling apart.

Well he has more GSL points for one. I mean they are directly related to your performance.

Because MC's open season 3 win doesnt count. otherwise he would have more.(which I think is kinda stupid tbh, just cause it shifted to Code S)


This. You can't use GSL points as your objective meter for achievements when the way the points are determined is flawed. MVP is a more accomplished player than MC on paper simply because they chose to not count the open seasons in determining points. If they did choose to count those, I'm pretty sure MC would beat out MVP. Obviously, things didn't work out that way and MC's first GSL win isn't being counted for him, but objectivity should account for clear inconsistencies in how the point system works, and a win in the GSL before Code S is virtually just as good as any other GSL win.

The Open Seasons don't count because they happened last year.

Nestea better be glad it's not an online tournament where he has to play with lag.

Soooo..... the rest of the world is playing for 3rd? Haha I kid but that's actually probably not too far from the truth. Either way it's going to be an amazing event to watch!

So there isn't a Korean Invitational? Or if there is it doesn't matter towards the Blizzcon invites? Even though MVP and Nestea are the obvious invites I don't understand why they're doing it this way :/

He faced HuK, July, san, and MKP, that is a Code S lineup.

Great invites from Blizzard! MVP isn't unbeatable nor is Nestea. Nestea did lose a game to MMA in the GSL this season so it'll be interesting to see what the final bracket will be looking like but I still have to give the whole thing to Nestea. Second place though could be anyone i'm sure everyone will be trying very hard and it'll be exciting to see how much Naniwa has improved by blizzcon.
