No big deal right ? Well as none of them are in the top 20 players in the world anyway it doesn't matter. | ||

But the thing annoying me the most is that the majority of the community doesn't seems to have a problem with it. I'm very disapointed. | ||

Its only the very very top koreans that dominate Eight Premier Tournaments in a row won by Koreans now. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Premier_Tournaments. I discounted AOL as no foreigners competed. | ||

There's loads of lesser known players on the invite list. | ||

Every established players were anyone who weren't anyone before being established. How likely do you think it would have been for Thorzain to be on this list if TSL3 has used this system ? This looks more like a TV show than a actual competition. | ||

The new MLG system makes every tournament in 2011 as well as the Blizzard ladder a Qualifier for MLG winter 2012, ppl who couldn't make the cut have the open bracket. This is a more global system compared to last season's, This is also a better system since it brings the best out of each region. THIS SYSTEM IS ONLY FOR MLG WINTER SEASON 2012 it will be different for the next 3 seasons. | ||

your main acct is (temp) banned? this finally got you to make a TL account? I think (like streaming) there should be a delay for making your first post.. | ||

Open bracket won't really help since it's not really feasible for an up and coming European or Korean to fly to US with a horrible seed and really small chance to win. If MLG doesn't go with online open qualifier for the spring I'll be really disappointed in Sundance. Do you guys think that Stephano would have been at IPL3 if there weren't an open online qualifier? No chance | ||

But they don't have a 'regions quota'. Every player can decide in which qualifier he wants to compete. For example Morrow an Naama are playing NA qualifier. | ||

having an invite qualifier is kinda defeating the purpose of the whole qualifier idea imo | ||
