I know what you mean. I didn't really articulate it too well, but I was trying to say that because I don't think NaNiWa is injured (He commented on Twitter that he would have stepped in as a replacement for a drop out at IEM World Champs if he was asked) and his past performances have been pretty good (barring the 7 probe rush) it leads me to believe that it's not him and that he is either going to go to the qualifiers or he's a possibility for Code S.

Didn't GOM say they'd be fine with him trying to get back into Code A the old fashioned way? Plus, he was the second/third highest placing foreigner at MLG Winter Arena (depending on how you view viOlet).

Well, I doubt NaNiWa would forfeit and I don't know of any physical issues for him. Also, I don't know if Gom is over his 7 probe rush yet. The other thing that crosses my mind is that NaNiWa performed really well against some very strong Korean players at MLG which might lead them to believe that he can get it done in Code S, especially given that he was considered for a previous season (provided they are willing to give him a chance).

Good call. So, Demuslim and Ret. Any other probables? Naniwa maybe? Trying to think who else would be able to compete for a Code A spot and stand a chance at winning.

It could be illness related rather than a physical injury and the language used in the release is simply a little inaccurate. Ret is pretty ill at the moment and he withdrew from the IEM World Championship at CeBIT. Meanwhile, DeMusliM was saying on stream (last weekend I think) that he went to the doctor and that he was not feeling well. He went on to say that he possibly had a chest infection, which would not be something you'd like to travel too far with. Just a couple of other possibilities.

And as far as I know, watching Demuslim's stream whenever its up, he doesn't appear hurt*. But I think this was supposed to be his "up and down" season but he was supposed to be in Korea first for that. Hmm, knowing that, maybe it was his spot afterall.
*That said, Abbe did bump his arm with a chair and he told her to be careful, so maybe it is acting up?

sC is still listed. triple * for injury is listed as a seed. wasn't demuslim supposed to get a up and down seed? did he hurt himself again?

Why has Sen forfeited? Did he do it himself or was his spot forfeited (sort of like Naniwa's Code S seed last season)? And which player was unable to participate due to injury? Was it MVPsC?

Naniwa tweeted to Khaldor that he won't be going for the qualifiers
Well spotted. I didn't see those tweets.
I am always torn over who I want to win.
