Blizzard realizes Boxer is the #1 ambassador of the sport world wide so they've intentionally over powered Terran to keep him on top. And in other news... Mike Morhaime is being investigated for being part of the fake moon landing in 1969...
Back to reality... Until Terran receives the nerf of patch 1.4 .. there is going to be a lot of T v. T at the games top level... this current wave of terran domination will soon be over... and along with the perpetual T. v. T.'s

Lets hope the crowd is good this time! I want moaaar epic Boxer crowd moments
|
So, the big question this season is, did MKP declined his invite, or he was never invited??
To be continued.
|
It's hard to find any Protoss invites because they're doing so bad in Korea atm there are hardly any left in the GSL.

That was a long time ago. Not to mention, he just flew out for IEM.

Puzzle as an example. He's a slayers. MLG would be showing too much favoritism to one Korean team if they invited him. There has been a slayers player in every MLG where the LXP has been in effect. Plus, Boxer is already re-invited and he's already on Slayers. Let's see some players from other teams. Well thats not MLG's or our problem. SlayerS have a good team and they seem willing to take the chances they get to go to events outside of Korea. I can't say that about other teams/players out there.
Why do you think Korean teams are teaming up with foreign teams, aka Col-MVP, SK-oGs? Koreans want to be sent to foreigner tournaments. I doubt players from oGs, TSL, etc are turning down MLG invites. I bet MLG isn't offering it to them.

actually, for MLG the reason is that many strong korean terrans come every time 
If they'd send more zergs/toss the picture would be different. Terran dominance at MLG has very little to do with balance.

Someone said GuineaPig on the last page. That would be awesome, IMHO. (Didn't he actually sign up as Protoss for the Code A quals this time around? Sad if we're losing such a good Random player, but he's another possibility if MLG needs Protoss.)

If Boxer is back, that means MC can be invited! :D:D:D:D:D

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.
So when Foxer declined you decided to go for the real deal and re-invite Boxer?

PLS MARINE KING PLSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS OMG PLSSSSSSSSSSSS <3<3 <33333
But Boxer and Bomber are great too. Terran 4 lyfe 4 evar.

Would be really nice if some players could be invited from the teams who didn't get a shot at any European or American offline tournament yet, like Prime or HoSeo, just to make it fair. They also earned it with their performances in GSTL.
And of course more Zerg or Protoss would be nice too but please not MC since he already had so many invites to foreign events in the past. I guess Sage and/or Seal for HoSeo would really be nice and maybe HongUn for Prime, unless the amount of matches at MLG would hurt his wrist too much.

the whole point of people asking for more koreans is because they want to see the best players play. if the best players arent protoss whats the point.
you can whine about imbalance or whatever but if korean terrans are the best in the world (for whatever reason) people who want to see the best, want to see korean terrans.

We want Alicia back! It's so sad that we don't get to see much of Alicia in GSTL due to Slayers going with all Terran lineups.

Woot! I love seeing Boxer back state-side!
|
MMA also please! But Boxer going again is amazing! May have to try and make the trip down to Orlando since I missed Anaheim
|
Hero should be invited into pools - or did he place high enough to qualify for pools already? He is so good and doesn't deserve to have to go through open brackets again.
|
If there is a Protoss who deserves to attend MLG I would say its Puzzle.
|
SlayersBoxer to my local MLG? Gonna go freak out now.
