I agree though... puma? He beat MC of course he's at least in the same class, my much bigger problem is the inclusion of Destiny, iNcontrol, and Tyler (I really love all 3 but...) while not having Select OR HuK, when honestly right now either of them could wipe the floor with those 3. | ||

All that being said, we are EXTREMELY happy to have such a stellar top to bottom roster in our first stab at this.

Well, it brings the viewers in. Hero is a decent, solid Code - A player, which would be top tier in foreign events. Puma I guess would also be a decent Code S player, not top of Code S but someone who goes Ro 16 - 8. Of course, if you wanted the best players they'd have to bring Polt, Nestea, etc, but some players don't go to foreign events and they might not attract as many players as the popular ones. | ||

They have their strengths as members of the community, but I don't know if they are deserving on a position on a list of limited invites. | ||

NA: I don t feel like there s any really strong player in there, who is really dominant. I think KiWi and Idra are strongest of those. KR: Hero! Of course! Who else if not Hero?! Really looking forward to see the EU players. Some good and some bad choices. | ||
