Binski was knocked out by Illusion, who is flat out really good. So because someone lost to someone who lost to someone who is considered good, they are good as well? The law never fails. | ||

Taeja/MKP/MVP are the 3 best Terran's in the world right now. Alive might come out and go beast mode again, but we shall see. | ||

Not at all, but they got through multiple weaker opponents before losing to opponents (Who also got through multiple weaker opponents) who were ultimately stopped by absolute beasts. I'm not arguing that they're top class foreigner hopes, but they put in a good account of themselves at the last MLG and I'm all for giving players their fair chance. | ||

The fair chance is called the open bracket, not being seeded into the pools. | ||

but MKP? I don't see it. Not saying its absolutely impossible just that I think he is overrated, a good player but not mind boggling and amazing, and I would be supremely disappointed if it did. and before I get anyone saying he's the most amazing player ever, I am not impressed and that's my valid OPINION. DEAL. | ||

Yes this is one objective method to do it. But this is not the only one. I don't see were they said they use this one. And the only thing i said is that i don't like the methode and i explained why. This is one way to do it but you could have also increased the qualifing seeds from open bracket. This is just one objective method beneath many Good to know that you know what i am thinking. i am scared now.  Can you quote me insulting players pls? i said that: To be clear: i don't have anything against those invited players like Binski and Caliber, and its definitely not their fault that they are invited! I also like that the local players gets supported but this is NOT the right way. Is this insulting to you? So you insult all people that don't agree with you or what is your explanation? | ||

They took advantage of their fair chance last time and proved to be reasonable competitors by MLG's standards. Is it so hard to be happy that some unknowns, whose play you're probably not familiar with, are being given an opportunity to play bigger games and maybe in the process bring a little more to the table than seeing the same old names play each other over and over? If they play well, they bring a lot of dark horse excitement to a tournament where otherwise the fans have generally preconceived ideas of what to expect. If they don't play well, the better players in the open bracket and the better players in the pools will swiftly show them the door, and you won't have to worry about it. Nobody loses here, we as fans, and them as players, only stand to gain.

They played in the last MLG, and earned seeds, by whatever standards MLG have used to determine those seeds (IE, presumably not stupid reasons). MKP didn't play in the last MLG at all, and its unrealistic to expect a tournament to carry over a seed from two tournaments ago. | ||

What, to you, would be the right way? It seems like the best method of inviting players is based on performance in your events. Therefore: Invite 17-32 place at Arena Invite the next highest people on the list from the Arena qualifiers It seems like MLG followed the most objective criteria. What way would be better in your opinion? Not like MLG can just afford to fly in random invites, they don't have infinite money | ||
