People complained about gold players being in the Premier league qulaifiers, so MLG went ahead and made it so that doesn't happen by making it so you had to be in masters or grand masters. | ||

I'm more than familiar with the "fix". It's something that shouldn't happen in the first place. | ||

so there will be a 512 person, single-elim bracket[1] of M and GM rank. the final 8 of this bracket[1] will move on to a different bracket[2] (a winner's bracket of sorts) that ALSO contains some set number of players that will get invites into this bracket[2] (therefore skipping bracket[1]). the quantity and identities of these invitees is still unknown to the public as of now (~1day-12hours till registration closes). | ||

I'd message anyone and everyone at MLG to verify. Last thing you want is to find out you didn't and then registrations for the qualifier to the qualifier be closed/full. Good luck. | ||

Who wants to have talented, under-respected players like Dayshi/Bunny qualify into premier league when we could make sure every qualifier ever has 8 feature matches with IdrA in it? | ||

DreamHack and WCS NA Challenger Qualifier Qualifier Tournament same time, awesome? Invites are more than just 9th to 40th.

How can they be so bad at communication, organisation, and decision. But, then we won't have as much MLG Hype Train as they slowly list out their invites! | ||

It's not ideal, but once they have a set group of people in both the premier and challenge's divisions, they can then run the open qualifiers for challengers going forward. | ||
