Yeah..... I'm not really excited for this.....
I think MLG is supposed to be for people that are not in Code S. Not for ppl that DOMINATE the SCII scene, have won 3 GSLs, and were just invited to Blizzcon.
Don't get me wrong, these two are GODS and I love watching them play.... But they're basically taking away the opportunity for others to join them in their world :/

but the thing is that there are no korean seeds this time for the MLG-GSL exchange in the format for providence in that thread.
also, the code S spot goes to the highest placing person OUTSIDE of code S
and mvp, bomber, and huk, who won the last 3 are all code S. MMA, who won the won before that just won code S.

Ahh kay, mb. I didn't realize Providence was like the grand MLG. So, this is basically not the same as other MLGs, correcT?

This one has not Group stage I believe. One 32 man Championship bracket with 16 of the seeds going to players based on points earned over the previous events, and the other 16 seeds based on the top 16 players from the 256-man Open Bracket. I am not sure, but I think players with points get priority in bracket seeing in the Open Bracket too if they do not have enough to qualify for the Championship Bracket.
In this case, MVP gets seeded into the Championship Bracket, while NesTea has 0 points so he starts at the very bottom of the Open Bracket and must earn his Champion Bracket spot.

Sick format going to bring good games thats for sure
|
|
This move is good for the fans but not for the players.. seems quite unfair to bring in these players and pretty much hoard the prize money with all these big tournaments.
|
Looks like we know what the final will be again :D
|
Oh shit, just imagine a foreigner knocking out MVP or Nestea. Itd be soooo epic :D
Prob wont happen though
|
Could this be any more epic?
|
The execution squad has been unleashed !
|
OMG
This will be THE BEST MLG yet!!!
It's going to be funny seeing the "big" names Nestea and MVP knock out of the open bracket early on.
I just hope they don't have to play eachother till the end.

I am not too worried about them sweeping everything if they play like garbage ala blizzcon finals.

Why is Mvp in the open bracket? He won Anaheim, I thought he would have enough points for the championship bracket...

So MLG is for minor league players?
Its a legit league like any other. Any player can play.
