BS! Top 100 in America are not worse than Top 100 in Europe. Also, Top 100 in Europe is way behind Top 100 in Korea!

False false false. They are right in many regards except the eu equals KR, they should accept like top 300 kr

Who's currently teamless right now? SaSe? Maj0r? How much Korean presence will this team have?

Navi just won 1 million from the dota 2 tourney and had the best CS squad all of last year.

No, it's in the OP. Googling na'vi gives a ton of zelda and avatar references, as anyone would expect.

navi is a european team right? makes sense they'd try to cut down on the possible NA applicants to make sure they get the best and only those who are committed.

Natus Vincere = Born to Win

Latin names are so mid 2000's .

Another "power house" will be good for the scene though.

Fyi Navi has an SC2 team since months, their players are listed on their website.
This inaccurate titles surprises me, since they themselves should be the first to know that they have a team... I smell some drama popping internally, unfortunately.

They want Europeans on the team. Europeans on an European team is marketable. They also would be lucky to get a Korean, so they're having way less tight ladder limits on them. Probably the only way they get an American on the team is if he's really, really talented and skilled.

It is a good thing there is no cross realm ladder matches to prove this. Yes the US ladder is weaker near the top, but saying the European ladder is the same skill as the Korean ladder is pretty ignorant as well.

<Ominous Latin Name> Was always my favorite joke name for a WoW guild. Also, don't they already have sc2 players? I could have sworn I got destroyed by a zerg in Na'Vi in an online tournament.

They say that because, they are an european based team.. Thusly it doesn't make sense to force the team to take a practice or fiscal hit for a random top100 player, whereas a top 20 us player is more often than not consistently good and will likely be worth flying out to tournaments or practice houses.

ITS NOT ELITISM ITS MONEY BALANCING AND ROI.

Well watching White-Ra dual stargate carrier rush and mothership rush zerg after zerg on Eu and roll them is not very convincing. Top of the Eu ladder is miles ahead of Na though.

Yeah I think the difference in rank between servers is a priority thing. They must want more Europeans than Americans or Koreans.

LOL wtf they shitting on NA ladder.
Obviously it's known but how does it help professional organization to basically say if you're #21 on NA ladder you're too shitty for our team?


It's their team so they can choose whatever requirements they want. Even if they seem a little off they surely have their reasons.

If I ever make a SC2 team one of the requirements will be that every candidate should be able to re-enact the Knights who say Ni scene from Monty Python's 'Holy Grail' switching on all characters.
