P.S. Yes the system is bad, and they realize it. They are just sticking with it for last two events of this season. Also... a 4th place + 3x22nd place (approximately) is not unreasonably out of the top 16 in MOST ranking systems.


Ahm.. 3 x 22nd is in no way reasonable for a 16 seed even with one 4th place IF 22nd place is basically one of the very last places your even able to get as long as you attend .
The sad thing about the MLG system is/was... It would not even have been good if no Koreans would have been invited. It was/is just horrible to the core. Inviting Koreans just made it (way) worse ^^.

Well.. I guess it worked for Halo .

What you seem to be forgetting is that not all the players who placed above his 22nd place did so consistently, which is why it is perfectly reasonable for a player with "4th place + 3x22nd place (approximately)" to remain in the top 16.

when do the points balance out so the people who've been doing bad in seed can finally get knocked out and back to bracket?

hate seeing people get good points just because they are seeded over and over yet never show up.


Yeah, I dunno how it all works, but the result is quite weird imo... Like inControl, for instance. He takes last place of his group with 0-5 twice in a row, gets a quite poor 22nd rank (for a pool player ofc) THREE times in a row, and he's just still there... I don't get it !

MLG announced that they're going to change the system next season, but will not change the rules in the middle of a season.

INcontroL is ranked this high because even after losing his group several times he still won matches in the champion ship bracket afterwards, justifiably placing him above those players.


Oh thanks, great news, I hadn't noticed ! Did they provide more details or did just annouce a future change ?

I think they wanted to go for a more dynamic, less protective system. I think I found the thread I was referring to:

Prizes.

I posted in another thread on this subject. We are well aware of the short comings of our current structure, prizes, etc.

For next year, look for more direct avenues into our seeding system, more immediate opportunities to crack pool play, more online activity, less forgiveness of poor showings (e.g. no tenure for players that do not do well), GLOBAL feeder systems, better prizes....I could go on and on, and I'm very excited to announce details when we're ready, but the bottom line is: We are addressing, and hopefully fixing, many of the complaints/suggestions that we read from the community in an effort to truly represent the SC2 community.

We learned some lessons, as we have every year in nearly 10 years of doing these events, and we're excited to apply to them to all of our titles for next year, especially sC2

Well this MLG looks like a Korean top 8 for sure. Bomber, MKP, Polt, Puma, July, MC, Hero are all favorites to beat basically any foreigner there with relative ease, so the only way I see the leaderboard not being dominated by Koreans is if they knock eachother out.

I agree, only Stephano/Idra/Ret/Huk and possibly Demuslim can take a game/series off a korean. The overall level here (from a korean standpoint) is actually higher than IPL.

Did Drewbie get invited by GSL program or his MLG points?

Hoping MKP, Polt, and alive don't end up eliminating each other. Also hoping to see stephano get eliminated. He is a good player, just don't like the BM. i.e. "that was a stupid question" lol


European players sound like they are bming a lot of the times when they aren't. Their vocabulary isn't as big as a native English speaker so when he said stupid he could have been trying to say weird or confusing.

Solid list. Polt.... yahhhhhhhhhhhhh. I'm curious to see Stephano against some top koreans.


He's gonna rape them all, yo !

Sorry if the question has already been asked but is there some kind of seeding within the open bracket or are the draws totally random ??

It would be so bad to have like a MKP vs Stephano in an early round of open...



Yah it is possible to have that kind of match early round in the open bracket, as the brackets are random and like the other poster stated neither have ranking points so there pretty much considered on paper like a random joe. Part of the excitement of the open bracket! But yah I hope stephano does well, really excited for all the possible matches between great players!
