Doubt it, although I can appreciate me some Destiny, he's just not at the level of these other players and wouldn't really fit in on a GSTL roster with them.

actually destiny would probably be a sick team league player, when he was playing in KR server he beat a lot of good players just because they didn't know how to handle his builds. those types of players win team leagues, not MVP and Nestea types

Not only is it the GSTL, but it's also the first day of Blizzcon, where QxG says they'll have an announcement.

So it could be related to that, or it could just be EG stealing their thunder. I think it's likely just to be IdrA going to korea, they said he would be during this month anyways.

Release the Gracken oct 21 2011.

1. Idra just received a Code S spot, he will probably move to korea on this day, or his departure from america will be announced then.

2. Idra, along with Huk, puma and some other players will feature in the next GSTL.

It's either number 1, or number 1&2.

EDIT: If they join the GSTL, it will not be pure EG, unless they fly their entire roster to korea - which would leave the EG Lair empty, and used for nothing. Also, since the full roster would then only be in GSTL (Only idra and huk have single league spots), it does not seem likely at all.

EDIT2: Didn't idra receive a code S spot? Well then that tones down a lot of the reliability of my prediction.

Idra did not receive a Code S spot. He received a Code A spot.

G is for Gracken.
K is for Korea.
Kracken is for Gracken in Korea.

Ah, didn't realize that was coming next Saturday (22nd in Korea, 21st in the States).

Okay, then, yeah, they're in GSTL. They'll have a house and a large enough team to do it. FXOpen guys raved about the experience for a long, long while. We saw what it did for all of them, actually.

If they add in 1 more local and SaSe + maybe someone else from QxC (Inka maybe? wouldn't that be weird), they'd put them at a GSTL team of:

Huk
Puma
Idra
DeMuslim
SaSe
1 other Korean

They could make the playoffs with that roster. Because, frankly, that's a scary GSTL roster and every Korean team would tell you that. Add in Artosis or Tasteless to do line up selections (both have a lot of experience with it, and Artosis did well at World Championship thing), and it makes a whole lot of sense.

It's about a 3 month commitment, hey, look, Idra will be over there for 3 months, haha. And there won't be any major LANs after MLG Nationals for a while.

So, EG to GSTL makes the most sense for this announcement. That will be awesome.

The problem is that you cant play a code S player like Huk all season in the GSTL. They need to use literally the entire week of their match-up preparing for their next matchup. That's why you don't usually see Huk streaming during the GSL.

Would be pretty classless to steal the thunder from QxG if it turns out the timing has nothing to do with the announcement itself and the two announcements aren't related.

Although it wouldn't be surprising.

LOL, they posted up a video of the Kraken scene from Clash of the Titans. Obviously a Gracken tribute. MS-SERPENS is quite interesting, though.

lol I doubt EG keeps tabs on QxG's announcements just so they can steal their thunder. EG has hyped the possibility of something like this since the Huk reveal, and they did say sometime in october.

If anything QxG "stole" EGs thunder... and it feels silly just saying that. Because I doubt thats QxGs goal to begin with.

I seriously don't think I can handle this. At least this isn't as cryptic as the first one. I didn't do anything for two days straight last time updating the thread trying to figure out the announcement
