I really like Chae's statement. He is what every PA person/company or even player should look to or watch when dealing with statements or announcements. I think he does a fantastic job which is another reason why GSL is so successful.

Props to him and his team. I look forward to next season and his reason why he seeded Rain.

He doesn't really need a huge reason to be honest though. Rain is a code S player indeed and wouldn't bail out of GSL like most foreigners end up doing.

I'm glad Rain got the seed! We need more Protoss, more Kespa and Rain, which builds hype and makes the league more exciting! Moreover, Rain can definitely compete at the Code S level.

I think that all tournaments should randomly seed players ahead of their opponents because it would produce better games and make it more exciting apparently. IEM should have followed GSL's example and suddenly seeded players like MC right before they had to play instead of letting them lose early.

At least they have a good reason.

and Yonghwa doesnt deserve to be in code A since he bailed to attend IEM.
see what I did there? LG seemed to want him there so he went. gomTV had good reasons in the past and I'll assume the same this time. that is until their track record changed significantly.

He was not. He and Boxer said Rain chose MLG.

what did you expect him to say? "no, I can't play in GSL because KeSPA forced me to go own MLG."

You have a young person given the chance to travel to America, or stay in Korea and compete in a tournament that happens multiple times a year. Let's not forget all the statements that were made at the time stating that it was Rain's choice to compete in MLG, not KESPA.

Maybe Rain wins this tournament and gets a seed?

And editted... thought this was a tournament that happened at the beginning of the year.

Im not saying Rain doesn't deserve to be in code S, But the comment that i was responding to said that rain wouldn't pull a foreigner. when in fact he already has.

DING DING DING!

Answer!

Rain wins this cup/gets 2nd.
No other explanation.

too bad this tournament is spoiled?!


I mean I can't read Korean, but the champions and runner ups of 2013 sounds more like an end of the year tournament like Blizzard Cup. Unless you're suggesting the finalists of every GSL season this year have already been determined in advance and the games have already been played.
