Does that mean that HyuN or TaeJa will forfeit code S if they won their groups ? Haven't they already forfeited by declaring they will run in NA? | ||

Poor NA players. Glad to see some big fish on the EU scene too. Can't wait to see these tournaments really. | ||

Plus this opens up the KR WCS for more up and comers. Spreading dat wealth ain't so bad. 2) Foreigners are screwed. Foreigners were screwed before... the only difference now is that instead of getting all dat Blizzard cash handed to them, they have to fight for it. Actually, they never had any Blizzard cash to begin with. They aren't losing out on anything except for lost potential. 3) Koreans are gonna "leech" off other scenes. Already was happening. 4) Blizzard did something! RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE! Yeah... I know. Change is frightening. 5) WCS doesn't mean anything anymore!!! Foreigners battling out amongst themselves for the privilege of getting rocked by Koreans didn't mean much anyway. Oh, and actually, this is exactly the same! Foreigners can battle amongst themselves to face Koreans and probably lose.... just like before. | ||

Edit: It is essentially the rosters of EG, TL and Axiom, plus Koreans already on foreign teams. Not many of them are mainstay GSL players at the moment so it could be worse | ||

However I think if MC plays from Korea, he won't make it through the online qualifiers anyways. | ||

I'm sure most of them will have to qualify through the special qualifiers and/or go through the challenger league before overtaking the North American invites by season two. I'm sure Polt, Violet, Jaedong, Nestea, etc. will get invited, but guys like Center will probably have to just win the qualifier. 8 Koreans are invited to NA Premier division | ||

NA is a huge concern. I think 'Merica is beyond fucked. Scarlett might be able to handle her own, but I don't really feel like there's another player in NA currently that can do that. Huk maybe if he gets the right matchup and remembers to turn all his gates into warpgates. But they are only good for taking a game or 2, I don't know if they could take a group. | ||

And the others are all on foreign teams. Most likely the teams wanted that they represent them in their main market and like Nazgul said these are most likely the players with travel support. | ||
