Why can't MLG take a chance on lesser known people like puzzle/tassadar/leenock or even just mix it up with someone well known like Nestea or julyzerg. Quickly losing interest in MLG as the last major foreign tourney to get my Korean fix for now that NASL got screwed. They can't control whether or not players accept their invites. Bomber was a given, because he was the last champion. Boxer is their Terran invite. If all goes as planned, there will be one Protoss and one Zerg invite. I personally would like to see Puzzle or San for the Protoss invite, and maybe July or Curious as the Zerg invite. GuineaPig would be awesome. And they did take a chance on lesser-known players last time, or did you forget who won the silver at the last MLG? CoCa is Code S lol, how is he "lesser-known"? I think he means Code A and B players. :p Puzzle is Code S and he's included in the list of "lesser known people." Ehm, why is he? He has been ZeNEX best player together with Byun, been playing great in GSTL and GSL and he has a popular stream here on TL. If people have missed him they don't keep track on the pro scene imo. Anyone in Code S shouldn't be in that list for that matter. Puzzle is now on Slayers. I know. :S

I dont mind inviting the same players over and over, a little variation in race would be nice but no complaints here.

I for one am complaining about Boxer lol. He's really not that good compared to his peers, sorry.

Is it just me that would love for MLG/GOMTV to support players from lesser known teams that are not in the position/economy to send players on their own?
Personally I would love for MLG/GOMTV to invite NsHoSeoSage. He is a great Protoss player and NsHoSeo has shown that they are a fantastic team in the GSTL.

Still smashes basically ever foreigner. Hell, he even took 3rd at the last MLG he was at.

Stop complaining about boxer invite. He doesnt bother with invites, he's BOXER and goes wherever the fuck he pleases. We should be honored that he will grace us with his presence in orlando.

i want me some MKP, or more MC!

I bet you more than half of those people would have accepted.
would have if they could.

when boxer is invited somewhere you don't question why you scream like a little girl and hope you get to shake his hand :D

This surprised me too after reading some pages in this thread. I guess most people didn`t follow BW. Who cares if its another terran...its Boxer.

please not 4 terran invites.... or 3 and someone else....lol
|
I hope they invite polt :D oh wait.. that's another terran.. Oh wells

Yeah anyone with half a brain of business sense knows if you can get Boxer over here you do it. Then they always reinvite the previous champ.
So not sure where the issue is. Boxer is a legend, a huge draw, and if you are running a business and can get just one player that is the one you get.
|
great news, boxer at any sc2 event is always going to be gold.
Other guys that would be cool to see again /new players are DRG/ JYP/ HERO /Nestea/Coca .
i tell you what though guys,If you can get MC and Whitera to come to this mlg, With boxer fighting, then trust me this be the best mlg yet!!
|
If we're talking about somebody who deserves an invite it's Tassadar. Great protoss player.
Top Code A player who would be in Code S if not for playing nothing but terrans who 1/1/1 him out of up and down matches.
Boxer invite makes little sense. 50+ players in Code S and Code A and you're inviting him a 2nd time. Seems unfair. Sequels are never as good as the original.
|
No offense to MLG or Boxer, but I would like to see some new fresh faces in MLG. Don't get me wrong those are great picks but as I understand the exchange, Koreans as a whole should experience the glory of foreign tournaments.
*** Disclaimer: I do understand that MLG points/ranking for the MAIN tournament matter but still...
|
Seeing boxer or nada win a tournament in the near future would make me so happy!
|
I'm glad to see this! I hope Boxer can gain Code S from this!
|
There's no way Boxer is going to win...He's an attraction more than a competitor. But he can still grab Code S without winning.
