GSL is 300+ point master I believe.


GSL qualifiers has master level restrictions indeed.


but it wasn't enforced as heavily for foreigners (if at all) in WoL. Not sure about HoTS. Then again, there was maybe like 2-3 foreigners max at the Code A qualifiers.

IG.JIM is a top100 Grandmaster on kr server and IG.XY is 1700+ master on kr server.


yeah I just meant it used to be easy to go to Code A qualifiers even as a non-pro, completely separate from this because me and my friends have tried to participate in them. It's completely unfair that Jim and XY were left out.

Next year? How about next season? How about next qualifier? Is it really that big a deal to double the player capacity, making it just like the EU one?



Oh yeah that makes more sense. I thought this was a yearly thing.

That is fine, I want NA players to get in, players in China will just take money and it goes to china....And frankly they get enough for that through everything I buy.

Do the GSL qualifiers even fill up to capacity? I remember a lot of first round walkovers in the bracket.

Really I don't see anyone here argueing against how bad of a fuckup that was, I mean really there is no room for an opinion here. First of all if you don't want any restrictions, thats fine. I think everyone deserves a shot at making it into something big, even if the chances are next to none. But if you leave no restrictions to skill/nationality (not talking about players that chose another region) you better don't make a restriction yourself ... like number of players.

Seriously why would you hold a 512 player tournament as a qualifier? ESL did handle 2048 .., easily. Major Gaming League with a major fuckup, it cannot be spelled out otherwise.

It's not a big deal for you, an amateur who can sit home, and watch games freely. It matters a lot to people who are PROFESSIONALS wanting a chance.

Are you retarded?



I agree that it's unfortunate for these players but really, what can be done about it at this point? It's fair to point it out as a lapse in judgment and a mistake but complaining about it really won't change anything right now. Better off just voicing our concerns and hope they fix it for next time. Or maybe have a second qualifier.

This has to be solved by MLG generously. These are only 3 Chinese Pros, right? The deal was that China gets no qualifier, but that they (like everyone else) can play in the EU/US qualifier instead. This feels extremely unfair towards China.

Visa, and money is the issue i think, if they can qualifier this the Team will found them to go US to attend the tournament. IG is focus on Dota2 i think, sc2 is just a little part of it.
Why don't you play other Dota kind games? Because there is no Denies!!!!

Very sad for China and embarassing for MLG.
Was hoping that Xigua would qualify in eu, but sadly didnt happen.
Would be a shame if chinese players missed the na qualifier.
The 512 player limit is pretty stupid to begin with btw.

If MLG were going to limit to 512 players, they need to let the best players in , not a first come first serve. There's tons of nobodies in the bracket, and now these talented programers are left out. Just sad

Actually, more like at least 8 people who signed up Not sure if there's anymore, though, at least 2 of them were able to play in the qualifiers.

As a mid master in US, i feel MLG stupid when i see diamond players in the bracket while other profs are not qualified. Is MLG rebuilding a mini ladder for BLZ or holding a professional game for SC2 fans? JIM used to be among top 3 in KR ladder! Do you guys watch the ACT a few days ago when he killed Suppy, Hyun, JD and some other Code S players with only 80% effort? If you ask Maru BBong Creator and other profs in Prime, you'll know how strong the teen is.

Moreover, Jim and XY are asked if they are GSL code S players after refused. Does MLG have over 500 S players? This is the biggest joke I've heard.
My life for Auir.
