ECWS, Some other tournament, Dreamhack and World WCS - That's just in November alone, GOM are only scheduling around the latter 2 so it'll be physically impossible to include the GSL in there.

Here's hoping Baby and Soulkey have more success than Jaedong did.

Don't forget IPL 5 and the GSL WC at the same time, which i think Stephano is going to as well. He's basically going to be on a plane for like half of november, it's crazy :p

He has repeatedly stated that he won't be making progaming his long-term career, and in that sense aiming for maximum possible profit is just the best idea. So far he has stuck to it and he most likely thought that he couldn't pass on November's amount of prizes, despite EG's salary (which I am sure is quite high).

Might have to do with the EG incident... who knows? That's the only thing I can think of.

You had one job! ONE!

Also good choice for seeds, these two are playing really well.

He scurrred. There are no weak opponents in code s, they are all just as good or better than Stephano. I would favor foreigner tournaments in his shoes as well.

Its quite obvious by now that EG is happy with everyone labeling Stephano as the n1 foreigner and they dont want to risk him being stomped in GSL. I also dont think Stephano is confident he will perform any results in GSL. He is not going to play in MLG either afaik. Quite telling imo

They rushed it...
Should have given it a bit more time before deciding who to seed.

He's not playing in MLG because he's going to ESWC at the same time in France I think
First place is $20k and he's the heavy favorite

Now that GOM has given seeds to kespa players twice in a row, I can only think of 2 posiblities:
a) there is some agreement with kespa to give seeds to their players for X amount of time, or
b) GOM is running out of players to give seeds to.

c) GOM wants more Kespa fans to watch GSL. The UnD counters the Kespa players so hard that the only way to get them to Code S is by giving them seeds.

Perhaps, but seeing how 4 of them ran their way from code A to code S in a season, I don't think they really have that much problems.
On another note, players I would like to see them with a code S seeds for future season:
*Stephano, because he's Stephano and wins everything.
*Nerchio, who recently won a Dreamhack, and it is just rock solid.
*Alicia, 2nd place in both MLG arena and NASL.
*Sase, and that one I'm stretching it. While he has not won anything, he has shown good performance in past months.


Stephano has been offered seeds ever since season 2 of 2012 as far as we know and he declined every time. Nerchio also got offered Code S seeds for last season iirc but he also declined. Alicia has been incredibly off and on with his performance and should therefor not be considered a Code S caliber player and SaSe already received two Code A seeds in the past where he lost 0-2 in the first round both times..

And Alicia is like the most unpopular player in Korea right now, if I understood the stupid SlayerS drama well enough.
I would have hoped for Yonghwa + (foreigner or Kespa). Ah well, good enough.

Players like HerO have similar schedules, so I guess it would be possible, it is just seriously exhausting. I guess for him it is just not worth to play in GSL if you are not planning to stay in Korea long term.

Baby does seem like a poor choice, considering he was eliminated in the 1st round of code A last season. I guess GOM just offers the seeds to Kespa and they decide who they want to send.
