i feel bad for the foreigners who struggled to make it through code a prelims. Players like Jinro and Sase are probably angry and may have a right to be angry. Achievements aside, I think a lot of the foreigners have equal justification to be seeded. Still though, None of those said foreigners I believe are Code S calibur, including naniwa.

Jinro and SaSe haven't performed at Naniwa's level in foreign events ever. I don't think they are equal to Naniwa.

I really don't like foreigners getting seeded straight into Code S or Code A. Naniwa has never succeeded in GSL for as long as I can remember, and he gets put right into Code S? I just don't get it. Yeah he beat Koreans at foreign events where you can't really prepare for your opponent, but that is completely different than games played for the GSL. It's going to come to a point in time where foreigners are going to keep failing so hard that people aren't going to care whether foreigners get seeded straight into Code A/Code S or not. With that out of the way, good luck to Naniwa though. I hope he can break the trend.

Oh my god, this looks like one of the best Code S lineups yet. Can. Not. Wait.

I doubt jinro is angry. He turned down seeds in the past because he said he wanted to qualify the normal way

I don't think that Naniwa's ready to go very deep but he can definitely have a good season.

Why do you guys keep assuming, that he got seeded just because of the last MLG?

Man I hope Naniwa can make it at least one round would make me very happy. He has the potential thats for sure, but his performance in GSL always seem to be lower then in foreign events. I hope he can break that cycle. I guess it will depend on the group he gets seeded too also.

GL Naniwa and Polt!
My name sucks!

The point is that foreign events should not be relevant at all here and there should not be any seeds at all. -_-

So what has stephano done since IPL 3 besides owning foreigners? I don't get why we still hype the shit out of stephano, yes he is by far the best european zerg, but in recent times he has not showed that he is actually able to compete with code s players.

Second place Assembly, 2-2 in Blizzard cup group including win against DRG who finished second there and won this GSL. And I need to ask, what has anyone not already in code S done since IPL besides owning foreigners? There hasn't been that many tournaments except for Assembly and MLG - Polt from Assembly as well as Huk and Naniwa from MLG are seeded already. Only thing remaining is IEM World Cup, which was heavily dominated by people who are already code S (and played very recently so they probably made the decisions for seeds before it was played). There's not a lot of people to choose from.


Puma's won NASL Season 2, finished second at Dreamhack Winter and IEM World Championships and finished 3rd at Assembly and IEM China in that time.

I did say there's not a lot of people to choose from, not that there wasn't anyone. Also at NASL he only basically defeated a bunch of foreigners, which according to Lorch didn't count. I think Dreamhack and NASL are "in the past" as far as GSL are concerned, because they would have garnered seeds for the previous GSL season and not this one. And IEM WC is too recent, seeds were determined before that.

You can't backtrack now. You said what have they done since IPL3, and Puma has done a hell of a lot.
