incontrol still in pool play

reaaaaaaaaaally ;/

indeed. -.-

but its kinda ironic that he will not be in pool play anymore in the grand finals at providence when the real money is given out after he was plaguing pool play all season long.

insane brackets incontrol unfortunately will not win a match again but still manage to make pool play in providence really MLG is starting to look like an Arena of Legends. I really don't see any foreigner placing high unless the bracket is heavily in their favor AKA no Koreans to late into the loser bracket.

Providence could be better pending point distribution. But yeah, Orlando is going to be off the hook it looks like. MMA will probably be at providence, but it would have been nice to round this out with and old crowd favorite. He has been a bit shaky since the Super Tournament.

Pool C: Seed 3, 6, 12, 16, 20
Pool D: Seed 4, 5, 13, 14, 19

why wouldn't you seed:

A: 1, 8, 9, 16, 17
B: 2, 7, 10, 15, 18
C: 3, 6, 11, 14, 19
D: 4, 5, 12, 13, 20

like they did for Halo: Reach, etc.?

edit: fixed typo


has anyone explained this yet?


I'd like to know as well.

*puts on conspiracy hat* Seems like they want to give Boxer the best chance at winning his pool and getting into Code S.


The Korean invites(Bomber, Boxer, Hongun, July) are seeded separately according to GSL points.
In the order from highest to lowest, July, Hongun, Bomber, Boxer with the lowest ranked being the highest seed(17 to 20 respectively)

Source : http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GOMTV_Global_Starcraft_II_League/Rankings

So it gets rather misleading from here due to how it was arranged. Basically, take out Bomber and Boxer from the top 16 and rearrange the Korean invites in the 17-20th seeds.

unless they're the number one seed acc to mlg pointss. then they're number one. would have happened to MMA if he had beaten MVP.

Well Boxer will have to play against a lot of the players anyway if he doesn't win his pool and has to run through the championship losers bracket right?

well I woulden't count Socke out so quickly, he has someincredibly solid PvZ that i think will fare a lot better than expected against agressive zergs like july and DRG.

But seriously, why is incontrol still in pool play? even trimaster beat him, and I mean no offense to the guy but the other seeded players are just a different caliber from him

Poor Incontrol and Socke, and to a lesser extent Machine.

And why is TLO still in pool? He's been doing worse than Incontrol.

A lot of players are not attending, Puma is actually 27th in rank and is in pool play for this event.

I'm hoping that either Boxer or MC makes it out as the top ranked non-Code S player. Pretty thankful to SK for providing this opportunity to MC!
