I'm so happy that Jinro is in NASL, but tbh, I don't see how they can justify letting him in based on past success. Let's be honest- they let him in because he's a fan favorite. In my eyes however, that's completely acceptable.
Shades of season 1 invites isn't it? Hopefully he does better than the two of the fan favorites from then: Artosis / Grubby. Moon did great though (but he wasn't an unknown factor when NASL 1 was announced, even if people still acted surprised he did well).

Oh nice they are releasing names again! Expecting a fantastic list.
|
Good on Nightend, I remember him being pretty pissed that he didn't get in the first season of NASL.
|
At least NASL didnt botch it like last time when they were announcing players and put out 15 names instead of 5.
|
lol at nightend's qualifying reason. Definitely deserving however

It's fine to invite Jinro, but don't try and say it's based off current success, which it's not. Just send us the list of names...

Completely agree. Hasn't done anything since those first few GSL seasons.

he qualified for code A August I guess.

Shocked that Jinro and HuK agreed to play, thought that they would never play a non-korean online tournament.
Great news for NASL though.
|
Sigh, another season of invitationals. I really thought NASL was going to legitimize itself in the second season with the qualifiers.
Although im not blaming this whole ordeal on them , it just kind of sucks to have another "mostly" invitational tournament.
for instance, did incontrol requalify for season 2? i cant remember he was right near the cut off point, if he didnt i could totally see him getting reinvited juts because of his affilation with the tournament.

he made it to the round of 16 in code a july, so he didnt have to requalify....
Now he is in code b.

=.= just because Jinro is doing bad in GSL doens't mean he is a bad player. For the longest time he was the foreigner hope- the one who has stayed longer than IdrA. Let us not forget, while MMA was not even in Code A, he demolished a MLG.
These invites don't look half bad- Huk, QXC both are ballers and deserve it. NightEnd is not well known but he has always performed well. Jinro <3
|
Cool, surprised huk agreed considering its cross server for him :O.

Right because NASL hasn't earned legitimacy yet so they need to "legitimize" the league.
lol

I could of sworn that NightEnd made it through the qualifier ... or at the very least got very deep. I'm pretty sure that they had him shortlisted for season 1 as well.
|
Nightend got top 8 in first qualifier. He earned his spot.
|
Personally, I'm hoping for two players:
ONEBubbles. He's an underrated player that went pretty deep in both qualifiers.
Dimaga. I think he got disqualified because of a walkover during Homestory cup. But Dimaga is gooooooooood.
|
Uuuuu... HuK and Jinro!! Sweet, can't wait to see what other players they will show.

Incontrol did qualify for season 2. He was one of the 4 players who had enough points to qualify but not enough to get into the playoffs.

Looking forward to seeing more people come out.
