He would just get stomped by everyone in his pool. He would probably even lose to Incontrol, given his horrible ZvP. He can come when he's ready to own face. Until then, I just want to see him practicing SC2 as hard as he can so he can get into Code A (if he decides to continue, that is). | ||

I thought you were asking for him to be an invite. But I don't think he'd make it out of the bracket either, to be honest. He's just not there yet. | ||

As Adam indicates, we invite a lot of players which the public never hears about. Most everyone wants to come, but sometimes schedules and conflicts arise. In those cases, we try to make the best decisions based who the best players are and who the community and fans want to see. Boxer is a very popular player and as such I decided to invite him back when we weren't able to lock in another player. I thought I'll quote this since most ppl will miss it. Makes sense imo  | ||

If you don't understand why Boxer got another invite back then you don't understand eSports, and have 0 basic business sense. Like I have friends who don't follow eSports or SC2 who have heard of Boxer. | ||

Great news but i would like to see a protoss pro come over since it has been strictly Z and T so far. i still think mlg offers the best atmosphere and its nice to see the players that have been there want to come back again | ||

Since Killer screwed up in pool play with his nexus first (cuz of 1-1-1 threat? come on 1gate FE can hold that too, can't it? :/ cuz nexus first is just...) we can't know if korean toss did badly because they are protoss or because they were not good korean protoss (the case for TesteR since he is lazy practicing). | ||

People that have been to every event are barely ahead (~200pts TLO, Sheth, Haypro, mOoNan). of him. Without the invite, if MMA, MVP, LosirA, MC, and Coca do not show, and Bomber already an invite, Boxer would be seeded in anyways. The fact is Boxer is more deserving then every other foreigner ahead of him (in terms of MLG results) and that is before we take into consideration that he is E-SPORTS, and the following he has. MLG knows bringing boxer=money and prestige. Boxer has finished higher (counting the infamous Dallas event) then foreigner heroes: idra, slush, sjow, huk, ret, incontrol, haypro, TLO, sheth, moonan, socke, all who are ranked ahead of him in point in the 2011 season. Maybe Boxer is not quite on par in GSL, but in foreign tournaments like MLG, he rapes faces. In fact he brings all his friends to rape face as well. Then they take our money and return to Korea where they use to to recruit/steal more players and then return to MLG to do it again. SlayerS= Vikings at the MLG All of this makes sense but there is the fact that they are inviting GSL players. Most of the GSL players also deserve it more than every other foreigner or whatever the word is. Even some comparably laughable names like sc, nuclear, jjakji, seal, clide, revival and sage would make better off invite spots because they would bring on better games. | ||
