I don't understand why a player like eSahara'BabyKnight isn't on the EU list. Jeez.
Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or just blinded by your bias towards that player...
As for the list GanZi, mOOnGLaDe and a few players from Vile. I think I've died and gone to heaven!
Yes I'm probably biased, but I still don't understand why a player who is one of the best players in Europe (he have beaten several of the players invited), and is playing for one of the best foreign teams doesn't get an invite for this.
I really hope next time, there are some "real" qualifiers, so a player like BabyKnight can get qualified, instead of mediocre players like Socke, Goody and ClouD.
These brackets are going to look weird. What are they going to do, have the lowest seeds play until they get to a number that works evenly in a bracket? They should just make the KR qualifier pool play
Wounder why Destiny didn't get an invite :/ He's better then almost all the NA zergs invited except for a couple those being Morrow and Sheth. People may disagree but he's certainly better the Lz, Gowser, Hawk, and ViBe.

Said in the announcement that literally everyone was asked, if they aren't on the list they probably didnt' accept the invite. I'm assuming Destiny falls under that category.
Look at the Korean qualifiers. With the exception of ToD and White-Ra, the qualifiers for Korean players looks harder than GSL Code S! The only names missing from that list are MC, MVP, DRG, Leenock and thats only because they already qualified through Providence. Lol!

Wow did you just call Socke mediocre compared to BabyKnight.
Feb 23 is Code S ro4. Feb 24 is GSTL Slayers vs OGS (which also makes hero case interesting as he's scheduled for assembly) Feb 25 is GSTL I think will be the winner of NSH/Startale vs the winner of TSL/IM which will be determined this week.
With the new GSTL format, I doubt players will skip out on it to attend MLG.

TIJ got to the championship bracket where he proceeded to beat Attero 2-1 and then get 2-0'd by Tyler. The only notable player he beat along the way was WBC, as far as I can tell.
I'm trying to point out the grievous problems with forgoing an open qualifier: namely that you're inviting people whose only MLG results have ranged from winning the loser's bracket to getting mildly deep.
But I mean, I'd actually prefer to invite players like TIJ, Attero, and underdogs who have actually had to fight through the open bracket instead of people like LZ/Inc/Tyler who just seem to keep getting seeded. I want MLG to invite players who are in their prime NOW or RECENTLY, not players who did okay a year ago. See the problem?
Minigun is the best player in NA so you're crazy
If you think Minigun is the best player in NA, you are crazy. What did Minigun do to make him the best player in NA? If so, where's his accomplishments? Just because he's popular streamer and plays with Catz and few top NA player doesn't make him the best player.
Well....if you even cared about Minigun at all, you would know he has a health problem that keeps him in a lot of pain. So, it's not my business to talk about that, but this is a big reason he doesn't go to any tournaments. He's trying to resolve it, and plans on going to events this if his health is good. So just listen to me and just agree that he really is the best player in NA.
im sorry, but the fact that he has a health problem doesn't make him the best player in NA. and neither does anything else. unless you live in a super secret training cave with him, and then he purposely plays less well where people can see him, hes not the best player on NA
I'm pretty sure I didn't say the reason he's the best player in NA is because of health problems. But you just wait...this year he will own people.
Came home hoping to see European qualifiers start today, as liquidpedia claimed it to run 01.31 - 02-.02. But it MLG site european games are: Thursday, Feb 2 Friday, Feb 3 Monday, Feb 6 Tuesday, Feb 7
The other qualifiers are played way later than what liquidpedia says.
