Not even mentioning the somewhat obvious liquid favouritism - the entire goddamn roster of liquid is invited. I wonder why. | ||

I know he is popular, but FFS this is a tourney try to invite players who have been good at them. Really IMHO(and you are free to disagree) this feels like a slap in the face to the players. It would be cool if MLG said why the lineup is that way. This seems more like a popularity contest than a invite to a prestigious tourney | ||

 and btw it is nice from MLG they want to reward players who played in MLG already but inviting DIMAGA, Nerchio or MaNa would make this event much more interesting | ||

North America is pretty much Kiwi's to lose if he can show the strength he did at mlg. Sheth or Idra could take it though if they put their minds to it. NA is filled with players who are good when they want to be. Europe could go to anyone really, with it being double elim and so spread out it allows for people to reevaluate losses and also prepare themselves better for the next match. Aside from Jinro and haypro who are in some sort of rebuilding themselves period everyone in the tournament is pretty damn dangerous. All of them have won and lost vs each other before and are generally aware of what makes the others tick. My personal hopes to win in order are Nani, Thorzain and then Sjow. I will not however be heartbroken if white-ra bosses it up ^-^ Edit: Would also love to see Sase go beast mode, he's been looking good on stream. | ||

I'm dissappointed that Stephano Mana Nerchio and Dimaga aren't there.... seems odd to have a EU ultimate lineup without them The line up they have is very strong. It's an invitational. There are going to be a lot of great players not there. | ||

Otherwise, will be interesting to follow. lol those are very strong EU picks, you've no idea what you're talking about T_T The only player that I could say is missing from EU squad is Mana, I luv watching his PvT | ||
