Only thing that sucks is that probably means jaedong isn't going to play in qualifiers due to proleague playoffs .
When I think of something else, something will go here

September 12th? So the Ro32 of Code S will be done before the Code A qualifiers even happen? Meh.

Guessing no Code S seeds if they need time to prep.

they should be giving one to alicia in all honesty

Should be Alicia + First since Stephano declined, Nerchio is busy, and Naniwa is already in GSL.

Yeah, especially since the two most likely from KeSPA to recieve Code S seeds - By.Sun and RorO - are playoff teams.

I really hope Alicia gets one, he deserves it a lot.

Sure they want to maintain the upper hand, but you can't just ruin an OSL because of it. They're protecting their interests first, and the fans' interest last. Say what you will about Kespa, but without top Kespa players and top sponsors like adidas and samsung, I'm not watching SC2 anymore unless it suddenly becomes a much better game.


So ESF, not GOM which you are blaming, cannot take players out of the OSL but KESPA can take their players out of the GSL, how is that not the definition of hypocritical?

You cannot take out players without them being in GSL in the first place... Flawed logic.


So ESF, not GOM which you are blaming, is not allowed to have their players not compete in OSL but KESPA can have their players not compete in GSL, how is that not the definition of hypocritical?

I just wrote that you cannot take out players from a competition they don't take part in the first place.

Also i cannot blame anyone since both sides eSF(acting as GOM proxy) and Kespa are fighting for their own economic interests.

Btw. This whole situation shows us that right now Blizzard is on top of KR Starcraft. Which could be both good or bad (imagine if WC4 would come out Blizzard "soon")

Soon can mean 5-10 years after legacy of the Void.
