Lineup looks still really good, looking forward to see the american scene duke it out. I checked Idra's match history, looks like he was trying but then lost 4 games in a row, losing a lot of points and then gave up about 1 hour before the deadline.
Hm sad to hear, I mean it's a fair process but it's still a weird feeling. Somehow I still thought Idra was on a level where it's not even a question if he'd make top16 in something like this or not. That if he tried it would be easy for him. Hope he comes back strong in WCS.

I think the main reason he didn't have enough points is because for the past few days or week he would instantly leave the game if he was matched up with Demuslim.

thought QXC could not been in becasue he was no GM ?

I wonder how he dealt with ByuN aka PuppyKing - I've seen him leave those games too...

Will the the top 4 in ladder ranking start each of the groups and then do a GSL style group selection process?

I think they said the ladder wouldn't be used for seeding. Not 100 % sure though.

Daaam Idra losing five games in a row just before ladder closed and didn't make the cut =S crap...

A bit of fan-art wallpaper. Players aren't finalised, and sadly it's missing a couple photos I couldn't find.
It's not my best work, but i had the urge! In reality it's actually probably pointless to post this. Oh well, I can update it later I guess (let me know if I mixed up photos, they are hard to find).

Was looking forward to this but lineup is meh.
|
Sucks that Idra and Nony didn't get in. Would have raised my excitement level a ton!
|
Im gonna tune in for sure, but Josh is right. Missing Nony and Idra is gonna make this alot less exciting.
Then again, u never know how good some of these not so well known guys are! :O
|
I think this lineup is very strong overall, a lot of these guys are seriously underrated and I hope this tournament will bring them a bit more spotlight.

I would say at least half of them are better than those two, although I haven't seen *that* many games to ascertain it.

Looking forward to this tournament. The line-up is light on fan favourites but it gives us a chance to see more up and comers which is nice.
|
Suppy always has the best profile pictures. Also now that we see State is actually monchi in disguise he should probably be disqualified 
|
Didn't know that Maker was such a cutie, and rsvp looks to be Frodan's younger brother. ^^ wd and gl, qualifiers.
|
There are a ton of great players there, this will be a good tourney. The only player really missing who's good enough to be there is NonY.
