Quite frankly the qualifier is over and not much can be done now. I assume the challenger league qualifier will be run better? Only time will tell.
Challenger league qualifier is invite only so it better be run much better. Anyone not in that can only get into code s/premier for season 3 at the earliest.

It would had been great if they addressed some of the people who got affected by this, to actually fire someone would no do that.
Too much PR and not enough action IMO. What action is being taken regarding the players that were unfairly left out, or were eliminated by ineligible players?

Oh this is so sad, looking at the official bracket, 3 chinese players in their final match to qualify, then 2 of them lose and comm got disqualified.
I really hope they actually let them play against eachother though, and revoke it. Also, surprised that Macsef beat JYP and Demuslim beating Jaedong, but none qualified though :/
I did read this fast so I might have missed it but not a word about the Chinese? They are probably the hardest working players after Koreans. Let Comm play his match. Blizzard should approve this. At least the whole community probably does. The admin first asked Comm 'Did you play all the games?'. Why ask like that if they gonna DQ him anyway. He made it until 1 game away from qualifying. He obviously deserves the chance. Afaik there is always one rule saying pretty much ADMINS ARE ALWAYS RIGHT. Right about time it gets used for a player trying to live his dreams imo. Really sucks hardcore for the other Chinese players who didn't get in aswell. It's totally unacceptable they couldn't compete. They live this game. It's hard for Chinese players to travel to other countries. This was a huge oppertunity for them. And not even a word about them. Disrespectful statement imo. Can't write anymore just discusted. Sorry
Good apology but no solution. Plus they didn't try and resolve the Comm situation, why not just let him play his match vs Apocalypse? Apoc got the default win, just have them play. If apoc wins then thats great, but Comm deserves a chance too since it was MLG's mess up from the very start when it came to the Chinese players.
Well nothing can be changed now afterwards of course. But I think, flying some Chinese players out to the next MLG would be a really cool gesture for example. They basically had their only chance to play in a big tournement taken away and need something to look forward to again and stay motivated to keep playing.

Honestly it feels like it was just a huge mess and there was a lot of confusion involved. DQing comm(the account sharing or w/e) was reasonable as he broke MLG rules, however he should have gotten a seed or he should have been able to participate in the qualifiers.
