Oh snap.
Well, I think he does belong there and that he has the skills for sure. Let's see how he does.

Aren't most conspiracies followed up with that it isn't a conspiracy?!?!?!?!? :D but yea I have no clue as to why this is happening since he was in U&D matches. Its not like he wasnt even in GSL but guess we'll have to just wait for the "real reason" - conspiracy :D
|
Geez, what a bloody cryptic statement. I wonder what the reason is!

I think every player I root for loses and every player I don't like gets so lucky. Same thing in traditional sports too FML

i don't like this, he lost round 3 of code a but it doesn't matters he still got a seed...

I for one love announcements of announcements. There is absolutely no better way to hype whatever you are wanting to say. No better way to grasp everyone's attention to whatever the reason may be. I'm already prepared to be absolutely blown away with the secret reason SKT_Rain got seeded over his other peers.

Rain probably has a salary larger than most ESF team's budgets.

As long ad he doesn't bail again I'm happy :D

Why is there such a reaction because of this seed? Even if GOM provided no reason (which they will provide), this pick makes more sense than any foreigner that got a free seed aside from Stephano.

Seriously? Maybe it's because you're so vocal in LR threads whenever an MVP player wins, but it seems your favorite players do quite well.
Anyhow, this really does seem strange....

there better be a really good reason why he was seeded

Even if his current salary isn't high, it does not matter. I don't know when his contract expires, but with his skill and fame he can negotiate a very good contract from SKT.

Pretty sure Rain is making somewhere around $100,000 from his new contract.

The hyperdefensive tone of the announcement makes it appear more than likely that one (or more than one) of the things that it tries to deny is exactly what happened.

I'm not actually sure what everyone is so upset about.

This was exactly what I was thinking when I read it.
