Not that excited for this. Plus this is a busy weekend for me as is. I may watch championship sunday, or selected matches if they're two players I like.

Careful with those risky predictions bro, you might hurt yourself.



LOL. If MVP was here, my prediction would be 100 percent right. 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.


I want MKP to fucking CRUSH this tournament. I want Manner Mules and Manner CC's EVERY GAME.

Hero is gonna Manner Nexus the **** out of him (assuming they meet).

Or Alicia will finally not choke in the finals. Well he beat MKP pretty bad last time, and now there is no DRG to stop him. Still a stephano though.

Weakest open bracket since 2010? :S Always a great show tho, so it won't really matter, but I have to say that the lack of ''famous'' players in the open bracket saddens me

Alicia for #1 !!!

It's not like MLG doesn't know they messed up royally, which is why they hid the invites for as long as possible (and a couple extra days anyway). The question is why they reserved 8 seeds for KeSPA player they obviously expected to get when it's even more obviously not going to happen. It's like reserve a 8 seats at a restaurant without confirming and hope 8 people you know would just show up. Except 100x worse.

Earned or not idc some of these players shouldn't be in group stages like Binski, Goody, Gix, Sasquatch, an Caliber, especially when theres players like SeleCT, IdrA, Huk, JYP, DeMuslim, MKP, Heart, and Thorzain are in open bracket. It defeats the purpose of even having groups when lower skill players like that are pretty much automatically put a lot futher placement wise by default in the final rankings over those with higher skill just because of bad groups.

inb4 NA pro fans blame an all Korean championship Sunday on the fact that Koreans "practice too much and don't have a life"

learn from EU guys.

I'm sort of disappointed but i'm sure it's going to be great. I'd have prefered some KT or Ace players or even some lesser known players from Kespa.

Saying "its not their fault they're invited" is like an insult. At least it appears to me to be an insult in that you're saying they shouldn't be invited because it's "not the right way."

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


The best method?

Well, these spots were meant for 8 kespa players, so they were never intended to be based off seeds of their qualifier, they were their to invite the big names. Now we realize that the big names they originally wanted couldn't come. In my head, it only makes logical sense to invite the equivalent of what Kespa would have brought. Big high caliber players/names.

Instead they took the seeding method, which is a viable option and makes sense based off their seeds, but the bad one. Those 8 spots were worth about 20k watchers.

Your players aren't gonna bring 20k watchers, see my point. Not trying to bash, just using the logics from a business standpoint and fan standpoint.

Why is nobody talking about the fact that Desrow may be the biggest sleeper in this tournament.

I can see him crushing the open bracket and then meeting Taeja in the finals. It would be a toss-up between these two players to take down the championship in my opinion, but I may have to give the edge to chief Panda because his PvT is godlike.
