I'm not saying he's right or wrong I am saying he has every reason to complain and feel like he got ripped off. Maybe NASL couldn't feasibly rerun the tournament, or open up registrations again. If I were NASL I would probably have opted for the latter since more people would likely register now that they won't get crushed by Koreans

So with NASL reducing the number of total players this season to 45 that leaves 11 positions remaining by my count. The number stands currently at 12 T, 9 Z, 13 P so I think they need more Zergs.

I agree with this, he paid to enter the qualifying tournament of which he was knocked out of by the koreans who then pulled out. NASL then just invited players who they wanted. Doesn't seem fair on players trying to make a name for themselves when the more populars are just prioritised

People also have to keep in mind that say they hosted the qualifiers after 1 week of announce/prep/ and production for said qualifier they would also have to do production work for the to be decided winners and doing art and graphics for 14 players whilst on deadline is very hard if not impossible given what NASL has to work with.

You also have to take into account of booking the venue ahead of time and the fact that you cannot simply change those dates after the paperwork has been signed etc etc

NASL took people's money for a S2 qualifier tournament. Now they are just randomly inviting people who will get them more viewers. I think Desrow has every right to complain if he paid money and participated in that tournament

So, Xeris, Bubbles will be getting an invite then, since he lost to Thorzain a round before qualifying? And the fact that Thorzain isn't in.

Your player selection is arbitrary. You're giving out all sorts of justifications for inviting players beyond the order that they placed in the qualifier tournament. It's your tournament and you can do what you want with it. You're right though, there is nothing random about your selection process. It's obviously all very calculated. But that doesn't necessarily make it fair to those who paid money to take part in a qualifier. I do find it strange you take such exception to my using the term random when you throw out that I'm "randomly hating"

I don't even know who desrow is I can just see his side in all of this.

The question is, does it matter where people placed in a qualifier tournament if it it's almost completely invalidated by the decisions made by NASL? What kind of confidence does that give players the next time you charge money for a qualifier and some unusual circumstance arises that gives you leave to say "welp, this guy's team petitioned him, this guy is cool, gotta have Nony up in here too" it's all Korea's fault anyway so who cares right

Randomly inviting people?

1) The only person who is in NASL now that didn't play a qualifier was HuK. If you think he's not one of the top players and should be in the league you're out of your mind.

2) We didn't even invite HuK, his team petitioned us to put him in. I didn't see anyone emailing me to get desrow in, nor did he even contact me himself. Believe it or not, players need to make an effort sometimes, or have teams that care enough about their players to make an effort for them. desrow apparently has neither, so I feel bad for him.

3) Other players we have in the league such as iNkA were 1 round away from qualifying. desrow lost in the first round of the open tournament to a foreigner, and lost in the second round of the 2nd tournament to a Korean (after getting a free win against a foreigner round 1). So, congrats to desrow for winning 0 rounds in 2 NASL qualifying tournaments and expecting favors?

In what way would desrow have deserved a spot in the league given that he couldn't even beat a foreigner who only got to round 2 of the open tournament (losing to another foreigner). Even the worst player in NASL Season 1 won games... What I mean by this is; since we don't have time to host another qualifier, and we had to add people from previous qualifiers or Season 1, desrow didn't do ANYTHING to warrant any consideration.

4) Other players who are back in the league were pretty close to making it back anyway (I.E. Tyler who was 1 spot away), or have nice accomplishments since then that warrant their coming back (I.E. Qxc who all killed IM and has been training in Korea for months).

This random hate is really silly, floor exercise. But really, thanks for all the incredibly accurate information you seem to know.

desrow, I'm sorry you feel sleighted. You had 2 chances to qualify, you didn't. You will have more opportunities for season 3. Thanks for your concern though!

Do you think I've been arguing all these pages only for myself ? What about vvv time who was 1 round away also? I know I did poor in the first one and losing 1-2 to ogsvines is not bad but there are other cases that are just outrageous. Onebubbles is another example. Thanks for being a total dick to me when I'm just trying to question your methods and make the community aware of how shady you are and how badly you are handling the fact that the entire korean community bailed on you.

Good luck at stealing seats this week end, I already have my pop corn ready on Monday and will be happily spamming f5 on reddit.
