Leenock/Ganzi JYP/Alicia Huk/ForGG Boxer/July (not most likely, but fuck it who else) Best hopes, not necessarily predictions | ||

Let's say that there was a major foreign tournament that ran over the course of 2 months and required players to be live in attendance to play. How many Koreans would stay abroad to play in it? I guess the culture shock, and difficulty in participating in foreign tournaments (either due to travel costs, lag or adverse timezones) for the duration of their tournament run discourages many foreigners. Sen does have it much much better than most, as Taiwan is relatively close, but I guess that he wants to focus on the TeSL. Yes, it is disappointing, but I don't know their exact situation and how they have dealt with living in a foreign land, so I guess I can understand why many end up leaving. | ||

Foreigners are acting like such divas now. If you're actually a competitor, be grateful you're given a shot in the highest league. | ||

They created this rules to be a Global Starcraft League like their name. If they decide to give a spot to foreigners what's wrong with that? Don't you like the invites the Koreans are given in all foreign tournaments? They even pay for trips and acommodation and now it's wrong for GSL to give a spot or two? It's not like GSL pays for anything or the flights. Man this type of talk bothers me. The koreans are given everything and HuK that is more then proven GSL material and sacrifices alot to be in Korea can't compete because it's free? Why should Polt be given a spot then? Maybe then gave it to stephano and he said no, why shouldn't the best foreigner that is in Korea accept it? Maybe they should make a tournament for all the foreigners and the winner takes the spot but i don't think it's fair that GSL doesn't do a effort to allow a foreigner to participate, it helps and improves the scene in various ways and it keeps things interesting and fresh for better viewship. My point in the end it's harder on foreigners to travel to another country for months then a Korean flying in for some days. For some it might be considered a previledge but for young guys playing a game for money it must be hard. | ||

1. Make it that TOP32 (or TOP16) players but only 3-4 day event max 2. Qualifiers to that tournament runs at Weekly at GOMTV where half spots are given (runs 1½-2 months). 3. Rest are invites where majority is top foreigners and rest is top koreans. Pros: - Foreigners are more willing to participate when its only few days rather than months - GOMTV can focus more on team leagues - Frees up koreans for foreign tournaments (less schedule conflicts) - No more Code A Cons: - GSL loses ratings due to people not bother watching qualifiers instead watches main event - No more Code A | ||

Group B has 2 clear favourites in Leenock and Ganzi. But both their weakest matchup is vs. Protoss and Ace and Inca are pretty good. I still think Leenock and Ganzi advance but don't surprised if Inca advances over Ganzi. Group C is a sad group for JYP. 3 terrans means he has no shot. TheSTC and SC are code S level players and should advance. Group D is very tough. Every player here has been Code S at one point or another. I think Fin should advance. Watching his stream lately and he's a lot better. I think second spot is between Lucky and Huk. I'll predict Lucky since I think he's better right now. Group E is insane as I think they are all Code S calibre except for July. Supernova is the best player there so he should advance. Second place is between Happy and Creator. I'll predict Creator since I think he'll beat Happy's crappy TvP and have the tiebreaker. Hope this means that Polt and Naniwa are the Code S seeds. | ||

Stop with the crack .. | ||
