Official statement by Snowbird: The brackets that were up for like 1min were not correct. There will be adjustments because of schedule conflicts of some players (MLG, Dreamhack). We will most likely post a final version of the brackets tomorrow. | ||

No, the 2 finalists from the previous season get to pick their opponents. The players are broken into 4 tiers based on gsl points and the 2 finalists each choose a player from tier 4. I remember MVP picked Sen the very first season of this format. | ||

Foreigners like all others just get knocked out first round, for the few who get mirror match ups like huk/naniwa in which they are good at then its different. But srsly mr chae needs to stop giving them seeds. This is true for the most part. | ||

Foreigners = more viewers Why don't we invite everyone that's GM@ NA? Imagine the viewer numbers!! Who needs Koreans when we could have a full foreigner league, in KOREA!!! ^_^ | ||

Foreigners = more viewers They want to. Stephano has a standing invite. But, there honestly are not that many to choose from. They need to be able to commit two months to Korea, they need somewhere to live and since you're talking about getting more viewers, we should only count those who have realistic a chance to make it out of RO32. It's no fun with foreigners if we know that they are going to get demolished. | ||

To be able to compete as a foreigner in GSL on the same conditions as the Koreans they have to live there and go through the same system with Code B and A. Is this really what we want to see? The few foreigners who do get a chance in Code S usually already have beaten a lot of top Code S/A players to deserve that spot. I don't see how this can be such an issue for some people. Especially not considering how many viewers these foreign players probably attract when competing in Code S. | ||

Don't see Thorzain getting out of that group. Naniwa probably could, but all Code S groups are tough. | ||

If NASL or IPL expected this of people I would say that's not practicle but GSL is a whole new level. | ||
