Dont know how, but if there was a way to prevent that from happening all the time it would be great. | ||

Sound is by far no regular GSTL player for ST and they have a deep enough lineup to find a substitution for him. But IEM would be a chance for him and the team, to get some worldwide audience. I really can't understand this decision. (especially since Parting was send to MLG with ST having an important GSTL match against IM and with Parting being actually their strongest player!) I guess you dont know that IM played without Nestea and MVP , the real losers because of the MLG were team IM not Startale. As for Star player , Ace and Bomber are very good on team leagues so they didnt really need parting . I understand this decision , but releasing a statement so late is bad for bizz | ||

Sorry but you don't have any respect for non-korea events. Goody and Grubby are pretty GOSU, imo ... | ||

So they don't have any points and many other people will probably be considered before them. Although the reason why White-Ra replaced Ret was that he would be at the IEM anyways, so who knows. I just saw that Goody and Grubby aren't that much at the bottom of the ranking: http://www.esl-world.net/masters/season6_ranking/ But Stephano e.g. is still in front of them. | ||

This is something that occurs regulary with ESL(among others) and it's certainly not good. This is something esports-teams must work much more with, isn't this one of the managements big assignements, one would think they could handle it ... The point here is not to blame the management, they obviously had prepared to send the player; it is quite obvious that some funds that they may have been allocated are no longer available due to reasons that we do not know. People should think about it a little deeper before they castrate management. Think for a second, who provides funding for players to attend events? | ||

JBanks seems to have said that he has been in talks with Carmac which wasn't a straight answer but once can infer that ESL has known this was a possibility for quite some time. Carmac was unaware of it, you can read it on twitter. @SaintSnorlax @mbCARMAC I have had it confirmed, Sound will not attend. Will skype you Carmac - I can only apologise on behalf of ST 2:37 PM - 5 Mar 12 via web He told him he would skype him like one/two hours ago, that's not being informed for quite some time, unfortunately. | ||
