It would be as if the (inter?)national soccer association told Messi to play, regardless of what he, his team OR his coach wanted. They simply don't have control over that sort of thing. Plus the original issue was the opposite, perfectly good players being forced not to play, despite wanting to, which is even more unusual. EDIT: To clarify, I know nothing about soccer so if I just used a really stupid analogy I'm sorry *shot* its more like tennis no soccer, and tennisplayer can choose where to play no matter what team they play in or for what organisation | ||

Rather surprised by 2 Code S seeds for KeSPA players, and 4 Code A seeds, but I suppose the KeSPA players did show some good games at WCS Kr. Less rivalry, more competition! Seeing how generous they have been with seeds to foreigners, I am not the least surprised. Worst case they will drop down, no biggie. For sure flash and jaedong in code S will generate more viewers than any other current up/down player.  | ||

Not sure why it required a couple of rounds of blackmail and bluff. | ||

Next time it would be simple for Kespa to not invite ESF players and have no worry of participating in the GSL. Then that would probably lead to fewer viewers since you're closing off the tournament to a lot of the best players in the game who have been playing the game the longest. It's probably not in their best interests to exclude ESF players. But if worst comes to worst, then this would be the one time I would be thankful for Blizzard's b.net system in place, since Blizzard probably wont let Kespa get away with blatantly unethical crap. | ||
