Haha I wonder if Kespa will be so crazy as to throw all the seeds to their B-teamers, kinda like an act of defiance like "Hey look this is what I think of your seeds!~ /spit". Can't imagine the typhoon of poop that'd be stirred up if that actually happens. Man.. Some people just want to see the world burn  Not me though. I like peace  | ||

More importantly thou then the question of if they deserve it is that this means two should be code s players are getting forced to stay in code a or were refused seeds they deserved. I hate politics. | ||

It seems incredibly silly to think that two years into sc2 players can use achievements in a different game to get seeds into the top 32 of the world. More importantly thou then the question of if they deserve it is that this means two should be code s players are getting forced to stay in code a or were refused seeds they deserved. I hate politics. it is no different than foreigners getting seeds to code S. It benefits GOM because it gets them more viewership. But I agree seeds in general are kinda stupid. | ||

The reason KeSPA wanted to keep their players out of GSL was to monopolize KeSPA vs ESF matches in the OSL - they would be the only league showing current SC2 stars vs KeSPA elephants. With these news, it's also possible for GOM to show these kinds of matches. The best way to guarantee that that happens is to provide at least a few freebies for KeSPA players to ensure that they do get to play against GSL players in broadcasted matches. In a season or two I would expect these kinds of seeds to go away as KeSPA players begin to match ESF players toe-to-toe in Code A / S. Also, mad props to ESF for not letting go of KeSPA's balls when it counted | ||

We should take these Kespa bureaucrats and the Olympic committee bureaucrats and put them in the ring with john jones. This does not portend well for a good future. Hopefully, Kespa will finally play nice, but I would not count on it. It'll be interesting to see how hard KESPA screws over MLG in their "agreement". I mean will we ever see a KESPA player at an MLG event. | ||

Good news for eSports. I hope GOM/ESF and OGN/KeSPA will sit at a table and discuss things without drama in order to avoid this kind of PR disaster in the future. | ||

Couldn't have gone better, except for Blizzard announcing the HotS beta at the same time. | ||
