They won't. Naniwa actually upset a lot of people in Korea, this won't be a slap on the wrist thing. They invited Idra in hoping that foreigners won't be too upset for the Naniwa situation. With that being said, that's such a cheap move | ||

in west is mostly about individual rights, and players have a lot of power, but i see korean players as pretty humble and follow direction of organizations- and its their tournament and naniwa wasn't respecting that. meh... i can feintly see why sen would get it from blizzcon 3rd... but idra? I have a hard time seeing why he would get the direct code S seed. I would even say xigua would deserve it more than him since he got 2nd in WCG which is way more recent. | ||

Although this is the only one i can htink of, im almost certain there was another in his last GSL run. Regardless there deffinetly was atleast one...dont know where you where in that match Edit: Found the game, WAS vs Zenio, and it was from NASL, so i withdraw my statement until i can find an actual case idra has gg'd at every lan in sc2. online is a whole nother story | ||

This is also the rule that prevent Saviour and co from joining GSL. And non-meaningful games exists all the time in many competitions. Last weeks of NBA , NFL, EPL, MLB regular seasons? Between teams who cannot go to playoffs, who can't qualify for European Leagues but too high to get relegated? You don't see the 12th and 13th team in the EPL who met during the last week stage a mass afternoon nap session in the field don't you? They still play for the fans. Of course they can save/rest their players and try less hard. But they still show up and present some semblance of a game to their fans and to respect the competition. Boom, game over. | ||

Actually Sen's and Idra's spots are separate from this issue. Not sure who will get Naniwa's spot. | ||

It basically justifies their decision in term of Korean values for progamers' conducts and should be put in their website's rule. Ofc they have the right to ban people, it is their tournament, the question is if a proberush is enough to ban someone. I surely thnk that it isnt. | ||

We still view it differently cause its not as serious a sport to us yet. Different culters \(-.-)/ Lets say a scenario whereby in the old GOM format whereby there could be a match for 1st and 2nd seeds for the group. If you win you play MVP if you lose you play me (a scrub). Then you 7 pool against Nestea because you feel you can never win unless you get an advantage. You wtill lose because Nestea is a god and then GSL tells you hey you threw that match, you are disqualified) is that deserved? This could happen because GOM shows they can ban anyone. In many competitions such as in WCG (according to SOTG), there were people throwing games to choose their opponents and they are not eliminated. NaNi threw the game and there was NO gain for him but he was banned. Your rebuttal may be that it is not in the rules but in the GSL rules, HERE throwing matches are also not in the rules. Hence i feel that banning NaNi is a very bad choice | ||

For every viewer that turns away from the GSL , I pretty sure another like me, would stick to it even more. I value professionalism a lot and maybe cos I'm an asian as well , who knows. On another note, the two foreign spots are present in this current format of the GSL, so it's nothing unexpected. | ||

Not as in, sponsors are buying a seed. Think before you post, Gamania (Sen's team) isn't that rich, if they were really up for sale, another team would have snapped it up. Calling it them sponsored seeds is to differentiate them from the other 2 foreign seeds into up and downs. | ||

He said acting professionally. Is it professional for Suarez to swear at Fulham fans because they were booing him constantly? Is it professional for rugby players to have a fight in the middle of the game? (happened every year i've been to the opening day of the rugby season at twickenham)? Is it professional for a rugby team to get a guy to have a blood capsule and bite down on it during a game (Harlequinns, not banned from anything)? Is it professional for a football teams players to surround a ref after a bad decision? Is it professional for Drogba to scream 'it's a disgrace' into a tv camera in the champs league? The answer to all these is no and yet they all happened and incidents similar to the above occur all the time. Lol if football leagues banned teams for violations such as the above. Managers constantly sent to the stands for unprofessional behavior. Teams get fined like £20,000 pounds for violations (note for retards £20,000 is nothing to a football team). I mean fuck Alex Ferguson didnt speak to the BBC for a decade.... that is unprofessional. | ||

People are saying IdrA forfeits meaningless games regularly but I can never see him doing it for a planned BROADCASTED grudge match. Seeing as its broadcasted it matters to all the viewers and makes GOM look bad. 100% standing behind GOM on this one. Naniwa is under no obligation to make GOM look good, nor is it his business to care about how they will look. If GOM is going to pick players based on which players they like the most and which players make them look good and bring them more money then that what they run is a show, not a legitimate competition. | ||

How is that boom game over, naniwa offered some semblance of the game, just a short one. He could have just as easily 4 gated and noone would be saying shit, which is stupid. | ||
