UGH! Thanks Grettin. Well, I guess I'll continue to keep my eyes out for any news. Still a bit of time left to fix this, but my hopes have definitely deflated.

Oh, and if you want to hear Scoots, Wheats and Slashers comment about the whole thing, check the Lo3 episode from 1st of september.

I doubt top teams will change their mind unless ESWC does things differently.

I'm only reading comments about their debt and what has been paid off? Read the thread i linked and show me where does it say that the situation has changed, because i seem to be blind to notice it.

The main reason why teams seem to be boycotting this is still there. Unless this "application" system changes everything.

Yeah I was wondering about the odd placement of their nickname in their names too xP

The way it is now (Aside from MarineKing's) is like: Gr "IdrA" eg Fields!

So how come that the Koreans get Invited and everyone else has to qualifiy? Are they something special?


It looks like they picked fan favorites. They invite fan favorites as a marketing tactic to attract an audience. In SC2, Koreans are liked by both foreigners and koreans (of course), maybe not so much vice versa which is my opinion on why no foreigners were invited.

In SC2, who is willing to watch a tournament without big names? With the amount of bias and perplexed individuals that play this game (read the forum debates if you don't believe me) you have to have some "guaranteed" big "korean" names to attract attention otherwise a vast majority of the audience will end up watching some other stream; notably IPL rebroadcasted episodes.

Did you read the thread?
BlizzCon (Oct 21-22) is on the same weekend as ESWC (Oct 21-25) - and NesTea + Mvp are gonna represent Korea in Anaheim. So even though they are the best, even they cant compete at 2 places at the same time
MC, MKP, NaDa are pretty solid picks anyways^^

This is great news, but we have to bear in mind that almost every pro team is boycotting the event because of the $1000 entry fee, so i don't know if we'll see a lot of contenders to those three players (besides our top frenchy, i hope Stephano or ToD wins the whole thing, bring ESWC back home ! )

The picks are defnitely solid. Who cares if these are not the biggest names in SC2. These players can take games off the biggest names which only means the content they present will be highly entertaining.

They'll probably prefer to go to GSL finals then, I guess that they will then invite other koreans, like they did at one MLG (i believe) when Bomber couldn't get there, due to visa problems.

I would have prefered to have one korean of each race invited, but this 3 are still awesome ^_^

Nada at foreign again !
Deffinetely watch
Time for him to grab some gold



I dont mind the schedule of eswc and blizzcon collide
But it would be damned if nada and mvp collide

Furthermore
Blizzcon has too many asian
Kr, tw, cn, some sea player
They even have asian na player

Dont mean to be racist
But if the like of idra, demu, tlo, stephano, nerchio etc goes to eswc
Then foreigner faithfull will pack eswc as much as blizzcon

Why are you writing your sentences in stanzas? This is a forum, not a poem for your literature class.

I am joking btw. I really think we need some people from every region so we can see different playstyles and a variety of interesting games. Everybody these days have the same timings because they copy builds instead of innovate their own which only makes for a hard counter, one sided game. But, we will see. Good luck to all the players attending!
