Please look at how IEM does it, they have a very fair system. Everyone should be able to sign up for this qualifier. There are constantly coming up so many good players since SC2 is such a new game and it is so popular, how do they get a chance if most tournaments are invite only? Is a new up and coming player forced to win 10 online cups before he is popular enough to get a chance to qualify for MLG? A qualification system based on popularity is really not what I expect from MLG. | ||

By my count that is 20 Foreigners and 12 Koreans, and all of the players should be top tier after running their respective gauntlets. So much negativity  ! This is why they play the actual games people. Victors are never crowned on paper.So 6 of the top 8 at the Winter Arena will be Koreans. Gotcha. | ||

Pretty obvious they are limiting the number of Koreans that can participate but it's kinda reasonable... | ||

Maybe he's going to play from Korea, or maybe he'll play from Aus with an ISP that gives less lag to KR than NA. This qualifier is so stacked. ^-^ | ||

Not just are they losing a lot of viewers who prefer Assembly, they alos miss out on a lot of top players. Theres a reason why hosting Large scale events like MLG's are hard, finding an available venue with the right size and choosing from the available cities without date stumping another event. | ||
