To argue your point, In Sc2, there are better terrans to choose from: Light, Reality, Snow There's more players in sc2 that were snubbed including: Flying, Sang In terms of bw results as players with more credentials: Sea, Leta, ZerO, Light, Hoejja
Heck, he's not even the best terran on the team, leta is. And Snow/Skyhigh is arguable although Snow is Toss in SCBW. And I can reiterate enough how awkward that Jaehoon was picked to be a part of this...might as well slot in Horang2 with Jaehoon so they ca smile and joke their way into a 0-# of the games they play, record.

The list is awesome! Sure some names are missing but it s based on the Kespa ranking for SC2 so... I wanna see Bisu!!

To add to the broadcast presentation, we are excited to announce that Nick “Axslav” Ranish and Alex “Axeltoss” Rodriguez are joining the MLG team to help broadcast our new content, and will serve as our live events expert analysts and commentators
Very happy for this. Axslav finally gets the big outbreak in his career that he deserves. I remember his first time doing analysis during Summer Arena and even though he was good, his voice was a bit shaky. But then seeing him cast along-side Kevin Knocke during IPTL the other day, you can see how he has improved immensely in such a short period of time, and he is much more confident.
With Grubby casting in the Korean OSL and Axslav in MLG, I believe that this is a MASSIVE improvement for the quality of commentating and analysis. Anyway, good job Axslav, well deserved and I look forward to seeing you on the big stage

Lol, 12 players from NA, are they going to match vibe/Minigun/QxC vs the likes of Mvp Nestea or stephano?

It would be entirely opposite of interesting, TvZ is Flash's worst matchup it'll be so one-sided its not worth watching.

Is this instead of an arena this season?
|
oh yeah 12 NA players huh? /facepalm
aside from that it looks decently interesting... no way i'll have time to watch it with all the more interesting tournies going on, but still good shit and i'll make sure to check the results.

Stephano probably won't participate because of ESWC which happens the same date as MLG, unless he is able to participate just for the fun.

Tsk tsk tsk.. Guessing this is sarcasm, but pretty much all tournaments do this. Hell, Dreamhack usually only has 1 or 2 NA players and maybe 5-6 Koreans. MLG is one of the best tournaments in terms of diversity. Well no, Dreamhack doesn't do this cause Dreamhack doesn't give spots. Pretty big difference So the Dreamhack Valencia Invitational is just called an invitational for fun? Are you kidding me?
Way the go to look at last year, a 8 player invite tournament.

From 1st Maj 2012 until today 57 wins - 21 losses ZvT (73.08%)
And BTW you really shouldn't argue me with numbers I love numbers

This is awesome! No Leta

This looks awesome, and congrats to Axslav and Axeltoss!

It's not 72% against 'the best Korea has got to offer'. If you want to nitpick on numbers and words, you should really check your facts more thoroughly.

If I understood correctly is MLG (including this 12 NA, 6EU etc) vs KESPA, and those you mentioned are not KESPA.
In any case, is such a shame that the "International Team" (GSL are included?) will not be of full potential due to the quotas. Why not top 24 MLG? Still it's not "full power" but better than what has been proposed for the "sake" of e-sports.
