That's why Bisu and team had some unpleasant last summer. And I still don't believe it is that low. | ||

There are lots of legitimate scenarios that I can think of where a player gets a seed but explanation cannot come till later. What if a player cheated against Rain to deny him getting into code S? Not saying that is the case at all but just showing that condemning GOM / Chae at this point is stupid without knowing the whole story. I'm content to wait. It doesn't ruin my day. | ||

Hell, remember when they gave Idra and Sen seeds to GSL Season 1 in 2012? Sen hadn't even placed higher than 3rd at a premier tournament, and Idra had only won IEM Guangzhou, against relatively light competition. This is much more reasonable than that at least. LMFAO no GSL and OSL are not equivalent, mayble OSL in the future but the quality of play, Commentators, observers, they werent even upto par with GSL. I say this as a broodwar fan who has followed the scene since SKY OSL 2002 (which Reach won ). The Wings of Liberty OSL was a pretty much joke to me, I even had to mute the stream because the commentating was abosolutely god awful. | ||

Rain is an amazing player so I really have no problem with the seed. Also interested to hear the reasoning when they can finally say. | ||

They've given seeds to far lesser players in the past, so there is no need for this cloak and dagger bs. Just come out and say the reason and be done with it. Probably a surprise they are planning. | ||

I don't see how commentator quality, observer quality, etc. is relevant to how difficult a tournament is. Beside, OSL does have that brand recognition in Korea over GSL. | ||

For the Rain seed mystery: I can't think of anything that would explain this odd sequence of action... Mr Chae will probably come up with a good explanation, but I wonder what that could be... | ||

I mean he likely would've made it through up/downs (at least I hope), and I love watching him play, but what the hell? | ||
