Wait, Naniwa doesn't have to go through the Code B qualifiers for the next GSL? I thought he lost first round in Code A this season.

He earned another Code A spot at MLG Anaheim.

I thought there is a rule about players in Korea aren't eligible for the Code A spots in the exchange program.


I think its about Koreans, not players in Korea.

Oh i see, would Select be able to take a spot then if he earns one?


Idk if MLG/GSL ever came out and said if Select and whichever FXO guys are korean (I dont mean old fou guys I mean I think Moonan and or Slog are Korean) can get spots. They have to cut the line somewhere. Could Puma/Tondongho/Artist get a spot because theyre on EG/Dignitas/ReIGN? Well that wouldn't be fair to Koreans training in Korea would it?

EDIT: The only semi-logical thing I can think of as a cutoff point is if you are in a Korean clan you can't get the spot. This would be "fair" to the Koreans while still being "fair" to what is FXOKorea ( I know they're one team), while still allowing those with no Korean team ties, ie Puma/Select/Tondongho/Artist. Although that would lock out Slog and or Moonan as well

They can't draw the line with rather you're on a Korean team or not tho, because then some random Korean that isn't on a team (and manage to fly himself to MLG) would try to qualify for Code A at MLG instead of the qualifier

But yea, I agree there needs to be a well define line for the MLG exchange, which at the moment, seems to be very vague to the viewers.

I would just make it "You are in korea now? you can only get code S spot like the other ppl from there"
Otherwise it seems increddile unfair (even more then now) where you can train in korea and pick up a "free" code a in MLG if you happen to fall down without going through those brutal qualifiers.

This would also exclude Naniwa and co

I def. think that an EG and Dignitas team house is in the works. Would make a lot of sense.

I said Korean clans instead of teams. Because, from what Tastosis/Doa/Wolf/Moletrap talk about clans are relativly easy to join (Wolf had said he was in one and idk if he's higher than masters). If you aren't good enough to be in a clan then you probably wouldn't be good enough to get a Code A spot from MLG anyway.

This isn't the FAIREST way to do this, but its somewhat fair, unless it leads to good Koreans (that aren't on teams) leaving their clans and somehow self funding themselves a trip to MLG.

This is great news for the foreigner scene. I am really liking that these players are taking the initiative to go to Korea and train with the best. Hopefully more players will follow suite. Good luck, Sjow!

I really don't want to start this discussion here but what gives Naniwa the right on that code a spot but DRG not if he reaches the same place?
From what i understood they added those spots so foreigners at least got a try in the GSL when they go korea without going through those qualifiers. Yet now some are there already what except skin color sepperates them from the rest?
They got a teamhouse, they got practice partners, they got the korean ladder laggfree.

This will be great. Don't think SjoW has been performing as well as he could be and Korea will definitely bring him back to the highest level of play.
