Wow, huge news! Congratulations!


No.... not congratulations...... everything is still so confusing...... why does IdrA just "get" a Code S spot? And why Sen too?

Why did people get code A spots? And why were people not angry then?

At least Naniwa earned his SPOT in MLG. They should have gone with the seeding sen and idra into up and downs. Direct seed is a joke and GOmtv was saying it wanted to keep the best of the best in Code S? When they don't think their seeded players can make it through the up and downs? Sen is a great player but some players in the up and downs deserved it more.

Why Sen?

I...don't...get it. Why does Sen get the spot? Yes, he got third at NASL and Blizzcon. Why not, you know, Puma, the guy who WON NASL? Why not a top ranking Korean like Nada or Polt? Why not the guy who was behind Naniwa at Providence in Huk or Haypro?

It's kind of weird how one player's immaturity has shifted so much of the blame to GOM.

No, it's not weird at all. Sure, it was a dick movie on Naniwa's part, but had GSL not allowed players to play a pointless match, this never would've happened in the first place. I'm not so sure I wanted to see two players perform while pulling punches "for the sake of entertainment" anyway. And what reason does GSL have for throwing Naniwa out? Do they have a rule that explicitly states players may not act like dicks?


hey guess what? if naniwa had not acted like a dick, this would've never happened. oh and you want to talk rules? there's also no rule stating they can't do whatever they want.

This is awesome and completely justified, Naniwa got what was coming to him for not having one ounce of respect for the Korean e-sports industry and shitting on their tournament and the fans. I hope he finally starts to realize that his actions have consequences..

Naniwa made GOM look like a joke on TV. This is what MLG should have done. I'm not gonna complain, but gonna get ready for all the outraged foreigners saying they'll never watch GSL again.


I agree with this. I was looking for a great game and all a got was a minute of crap. It was a big disappointment. Why would GOM want a player like that in their tournament?

You cant purposely throw a game on that big of a stage and not expect the organization to punish you. Just think if a major football team just decided to lay-down every snap during a game....people would be outraged.

Jinro was offered it awhile ago but he declined because he wants to earn his spot.


Im talking about the next season. Jinro declined it when he thought he wasnt good enough for it. But failed very close on making it into Code A twice after those offers. I think he may changed his mind because of this. If not he will win his Code A Spot anyways! HOPE!


I don't think so, Jinro seems to really want to earn his spot and not take an invite. I could be wrong maybe he'll read my comment but I am pretty sure he still thinks that way ^^.
When I think of something else, something will go here

I think there is a rule about people of bad character iirc? I'm not actually too sure... Where the hell are the GSL rules anyway? I remember seeing them once and never again.

Is this true? That's pretty sick if it is. Code S isn't just about prestige, it's also about $. Respect for Jinro, hope he can get there.

I would hate to be a Korean player busting his gut out going through B/A to see somebody else get an auto-entry.

Not really... if it is this much of a little baby sport than I'm done with the whole thing.

Competitive SC2 can suck it if they are this childish...

On Korean stream of GSL right now, Mr.Chae has announced that they made Code S seeds for a professional minded pro-gamer not for an amateur prize money hunter. It is official that Naniwa is given a punishment. Also David Kim will come to the finals of Blizzcup.


No surprise there ... GSL creates inferior tournament formant that can result in pointless games. Punish player. Oh btw look over here! ITS DAVID KIM!!!!! Maybe GOM should concern themselves with figuring out how to broadcast in actual HD(Not the bullshit they call HD), creating tournaments that don't have redundancies that result in these circumstances.

Korean SC should swallow the "Holier Than Thou" routine already or just change GOM's name to KESPA Jr.
its called a Tuque damnit!

The strength of Code S has upped ten times since Idra left. If Idra gets his spot back, Rain and LiveForever should also get their spots back as well.

Are they trying to qualify?


Fair point, but above that, Rain is actually suspended from the GSL (may have expired) for abruptly leaving and Live forever doesnt ahve the qualifications. IdrA can definitely be argued to be deserving based on skill.

I'm not against Idra getting a free code S seed, but if this is actually meaning Naniwa lost his EARNED seed, then GomTV just lost a viewer, like... forever.

This is GOM's tournament, not a public service. They can choose who enters and they can choose who they ban just like Coca and Byun. Bye.


AFAIK, SlayerS made Coca give up his Code S seed, not GOM? And yes, it is their tournament, an they can do what they want. If less viewers is what they want, they got it.

They'll probably get more viewers because of Idra being in than Naniwa being out. Pretty smart decision IMO. They're probably being pressured domestically for the removal of Naniwa anyway.


First of all if they are really led by the principles of "we need more viewers", their organization is a joke.

They try to uphold the intergrity of the competition by kicking Naniwa out, but then they shit on the integrity of the competition by randomly handing out invites for spots that you need to qualify for (and other players attempted to qualify for).

Is there an official statement about Naniwa being kicked out? And who the hell goes to Up/Downs in Foreigner seeds now then?
