Code B qualifiers are definitely not harder, have you even bothered to look at the qualifier brackets for the past few seasons? most groups only have 2 known players tops.

fyi, with all these pros making SO MUCH MONEY why is theogenis taking a spot on ROOT instead of a salary, yes, instead.

I like how after every qualifier americans come and cry on the forum that the big bad koreans stole their spots. How about people start working hard like the rest of the world and not expect things to be handed over on a silver plate. But hey, 'mericah, so we should get free stuff.
Anyway gratz to Bling and Stardust.

WCS NA : international Korean league WCS NA qualifier proved - there are no more top tier american players anymore, only pro-amateurs. It's fine that sponsors pay for swimming pool, gym and other non related activities to SC2 but apart of that NA teams performance is declining.

I don't care what anyone says, SeleCT is totally american son. <3

I was sure that socke, nightend, marine, b4 and golden all would qualify without much trouble. I hope they get back where they belong next season.

NA talent needs to be grown more to keep ourselves more competitive.
American teams really need to stop focusing on acquiring the correct korean talent and go back to just finding talent. What people don't seem to realize is how many players have already quit SC2, including some former solid NA players that were there. NA isn't going to become any better, in regards to the number of skilled players. Maybe one or two might reach a level of being able to beat some lesser Koreans (in tournaments), but yeah... Yes, we need Combatex back. The same Combatex who took a game off Parting and defeated Adelscott, Killer and, fraer at WCG. But seriously, there have been a lot of solid NA players who have disappeared/retired. IdrA, Sheth, and Nony/Tyler are the biggest ones people remember right now, but Drewbie, Painuser, TT1, Kiwikaki and Slush all made waves and then disappeared or retired. And how many people remember Cruncher, Chance, Silver, Lastshadow, Murder, Torch, dde, Mihai, Optikzero? Grabbing the top 16 of IEM Cologne 2010 and MLG Raleigh 2010, something like 11/15 Europeans are still playing, and only 4/16 North Americans are still playing (numbers are slightly off, point stands). Back then, SC2 was a lot easier, as it wasn't as developed, and less people played it. Today many people have become really good at it, but for some reason it seems americans haven't. I don't know why though, because there are many players that get a lot of money and play full time. But they probably don't practice as hard as koreans and europeans. Gotta love the random baseless conclusions!
The state of the game in 2010 was entirely different from what it is today. And there are many americans that play SC2 full-time, that still doesn't win a lot. Since it's not genetics(americans will probably say it is, though) they can't practice as hard as koreans. Of course I don't know, but I can't find any other explanation for it.

Are EU or NA players allowed to qualify for wcs korea online without having to commit themselves by moving to korea before being into the money?
