The Kong Line is a hollowed and distinguished line, wish they could invite (Z)YellOw, (T)Fantasy, (P)JangBi, and (P)Stork to be present and cheering on all Kongs.

Fantasy, jangbi and stork are filthy traitors who betrayed the line.

Their OSL wins being against each other = betrayal? rofl


doesn't matter they still exit the line.

also note there seems to be another pattern in the kong line, the one who got 2nd the most even in special events was the one who exited the kong line first((P)Stork).

I don't remember if he lost all his IEFs before incurit though...

Stork had golds at WCG as well as the Blizzard Worldwide Invitational before his OSL gold. Also, not even Fantasy or Jangbi are in the Kong line anymore... who still is other than Kong himself?!

Finally, major lulz at the idea of JulyZerg as part of the Kong line... the first golden mouser has to be the furthest distance possible from eligibility!


MKP is a kong in the SC2 line hes the only one other than the man himself.

It's funny because Cloud Kingdom won second place in the staff votes and in the public votes.

Can someone please explain the origin of the word Kong in use?
How did it come to be that kong means second place, or one who only wins special tournaments....
this needs to be in liquipedia or something.

Obviously, Marineking won an AoL and DRG won the LG 3d special league but both are still invited

Sick to see an ESV map in the pool


Maybe because they're not GSL titles? Or do they still count as a GSL title eventhough it's not regular season?

I think this is awesome, except skill disparity will show pretty heavily. TOP will get roflstomped if he gets paired with Leenock or DRG

Sir, I see your july dance and raise you a Leenock stacked ontop of Losira, stacked on top of July Kong dance.

Ah well, this tournament seems completely catered to marineking... just because you place second once in the GSL doesn't mean you're suddenly in the kong line. The skill gap also jumps around so much...
