I think the reason they put Top 100 for KR is because if they don't, a lot Korean Masters who've had no success in Korea will all try to join. Seems like kinda a hassle. I dunno maybe I'm way off.

The thing is, all those Code B Koreans are ridiculously good anyway.

They don't want to pay for a trash US player. With a top 20 US ladder player they are guaranteed an already sponsored player but they know they're not going to get any of them. It's just a placating statement to say "Oh yea we're looking at everyone".

Because really, if they picked up a US player there'd be a shit load of investment involved to get him to the EU, get him to practice, get him situated in a place with the team that would enable him to perform.

And who on the ladder will give that to them?

Anyone?

Anyone at all?

Look at the PEOPLE on the N/A ladder atm either notorious drophack/cheesers - already sponsored players or mass gaming terribads. The top 20 gm is an arbitrary number tossed out, so don't look at the number and their decision is not only clearly good business sense but good people sense as well for the formation of a healthy team.

Fucking retards bashing on one of the winningest organizations of all esports time like they don't know how to run their shit.

Its actually insane that a spokesperson (self-declared through actions or official I am not sure) for the richest team in Esports (?) gets in petty childish ad hom arguments on internet forums.

Although he is more famous as a personality than a player, it really isn't the best image to cultivate as an indiviual or team.

As regards the NA requirements, maybe a Ukrainian team simply wants a european or korean based roster? It isnt so difficult to understand that having players in the US is less desirable when your fan base and headquarters are in Europe - and Korean performances speaks for themselves .


Yeaa.... a lot of the best players in the world in other games just run 2nd/smurf accts if they want to beat down some retard on the forums. No need for this.

In general there may not be much difference between eu and na players average skill level but when looking at the top 100 for each, the top 100 eu players are at a higher level. They have their reasons for these requirements, they are a successful team, I doubt their goal was to make NA players feel inadequate. If a top level player surfaces that is rank 54 NA, I'm sure they would consider him. I don't understand how people are getting offended by a team's application requirements..

Man, I'd hate for you guys to actually go job hunting.

"OMG 3 years experience that's so arbitrary herp derp"

Would top 101 be better for you? LOL

If they want talent, they should probably take top 200 or 300 KR. That is probably still better than top 100EU or at least top 50NA.

Either way, GL and I hope they can fill the sixjax void
