Rain didn't become champion until October 14, and Mvp beat Rain on October 10.

you have to show up to lose the title. No match = no change.

if he would have been in the game and left / forfeit / gg it would count

Yeah, but the GSL has very little non-Koreans participating in it, whereas the WCG is the WCG. It just seems weird and out of place.

i don't think anyone would consider WCG a better/more important tournament than GSL

either way i'm pretty sure it would be where it is right now anyway even if we did start with WCG

It's probably simply:
MVP wins WCG
Leenock beats MVP in MLG Global Invitational
Jjakji beats Leenock in GSL November <-- already in the current line
Mvp - Leenock - Dongraegu - MC - Gumiho - Keen - Polt - Squirtle - Jjakji - Genius - Seed - Life - sC - Dream || LG-IM - MVP - FXO

What matters is what the first official LAN game was. Didn't someone said that there was an IEM or something before the first GSL open? That would count as the first official match...

If you were to make a 64 man tournament of all the best players in world I would say probably 50 of them would be Korean.
