Also they never said that they would give the winner of NASL 2 a spot in blizzcup I know, but NASL 2 was a BIIIG tournament, bigger than the IEM that gave DRG his Blizz Cup spot, so it seems odd that it was completely ignored by GSL. | ||

Polt viOlet HuK Stephano NaNiwa viOlet / HuK positions may change depending on results tomorrow. now, obviously Stephano won't accept an invite as he'd rather keep going to foreign tournaments and get easy money there. Then you're left with the discussion of should people who just got knocked out of GSL be seeded back in to it which is a bit of a tough one. Didn't mind it last year when MC got back in as the rules for MLG seeds weren't subjective but obviously this year they are. I think HuK is without doubt Code S material, regardless of what has happened to him recently and Polt basically losing everything for two weeks as he had flu was tough on him so those would be my choices. But if people who just got knocked out of GSL shouldn't get invites then give them to viOlet and NaNiwa. | ||

But like many others say Stephano don't want to go to Korea, and I don't think HuK or Naniwa should be given one really. Especially not HuK since he was just given one last GSL and lost it. I hope Polt and someone else gets it, preferably Violet. Huk was given code A seed a long time ago, he just dropped out of code S due to the hard format implemented in november(Dropping out in Ro16). And lost to keen in Ro16 code a and his up and down matches and then lost his first round this season | ||

"International seeds", and the first considered for the first season were Idra and Naniwa (who got replaced by Sen, because of probe rushing) -- all 3 of these are foreigners.See the op. International does not mean world minus Korea. Anyway, assuming they mean foreigners, they should give it to Dimaga (2nd IEM, 7th HSC) and Ret (3rd IEM, Round 3 WB MLG) - if they require at least two top performances; or Huk and Stephano - if only one top performance suffices. /better make the last pair Huk and Naniwa, as Stephano is almost certain to refuse/ | ||

Polt lost in the Ro32 of GSL November finishing in 3rd place and thus dropping down to the Round 2 of Code A where he lost 0-2 against ForGG. | ||

I mean, if a player pool is stacked, you might still be able to have an on-the-first-glance easy run. However in fact you might have beaten the terran that beat NesTea and the zerg that beat MVP, etc... Shouldn't that be acknowledged as well? acknowledged sure. given a seed in the most prestigious difficult starcraft 2 tournament based on one good match? hell the fuck no. | ||
