omfg bitch bitch bitch bitch bitch. thats all i ever read on here any more. LETS CREATE MORE DRAMA!!!!!!! Negativity is bad... why cant you just be happy Rain gets exposure in front of real life fans. He can win more money this weekend against easier people while getting alot of exposure while hes young and on fire and wants to connect with his foreign fans. Whats the big fucking deal? Because now GSL isnt interesting? LOLOLOL ok. OR Rain stays to play gsl and gets knocked out in the ro32 like teaja WHOOOPS. So much for sure thing. All im saying is why does everyone want to find something to complain about. I think its gunna be badass watching Rain tear up MLG at the last second. What a suprise for that open bracket. I can go to barcraft for MLG...but not GSL so yea...maybe you shouldnt always worry about whats best for YOU and think about whats best for rain.

Sounds kinda silly to me... A high placement in GSL would have meant automatic participation in IPL


the kespa/mlg deal doesn't allow that participation. kespa player CAN'T play IPL

Kespa is the root of all evil. The lateness of the notice is unacceptable. Rain should be removed completely from the GSL and banned for next season. nothing less sends the appropriate message to Kespa that such actions will not be tolerated.


Except thats exactly what kespa want. As long as people are calling rain the best player in the world they have no reason to send him to the gsl to prove himself. Gom has by far the highest level of competition of any sc2 tournament so its in the mlg/ogn interest to do what they can to weaken it.

ok... well now the chances of an elephant winning gsl have decreased a lot <.<
i really do not understand the reason behind this (and i do not feel like speculating)
so i am just going to assume that Mvp scares him

I hope he's doing this for the easy paycheck, and not because he was told to.

he could have just had GOM move his group to next week/have it played earlier in the week. It's been done before so many times.

Some bullshit going on here, one way or another.

Is there seriously drama surrounding this? Rain had a scheduling conflict, and obviously (read: probably had to) chose MLG over GSL due to the MLG/Kespa deal. He's dropped to Code A round 48, and we're done.

I dunno how TL can make drama over this decision when GSL doesn't seem annoyed, and neither does Kespa or Rain. No one's blaming anyone else, it's just how the schedules lined up.

I mean, it sucks that we can't watch Rain in Code A, but it's not like Rain is completely out of the GSL. He gets to fight people like motherfuckin' Taeja to get back into Code S.

Now I really hope gaulzi roflstomps his sorry ass with cannons in OB.

This could've been easily avoided if he didn't wait till last moment to give GOM the time to reschedule group D matches, but looks like winning OSL already made him think he can do anything and be left untouched.

FnaticRain got 2 season suspension for doing the same thing, I don't see why would this guy get away with it seeing as they already decided to just drop him to RO48 Code A.
