That means they were inviting WCS ranked players and kept on inviting until 4 of them replied "Yes".


that is exactly what happened


if this was the case why didnt innovation play the qualifiers instead of accepting an invitation (besides later on giving up his spot).

knew the question of how they chose players would come up. sounds like a generic bullshit answer from iem. so many players wouldve jumped on the invitation if it were true


Qualifier are paid trip, invite are not


Why did Innovation give up his spot to Hyun?


He has pro league finals this weekend.


Pro league finals is next weekend not this

No way STX Soul is going to send their super ace and current best player in the world over to Shanghai a week before they play in their first ever Proleague Grand Finals. They've been playing in Proleague for over a decade and have never made a final. I'm sure STX Soul does not want to take any chances of him getting sick, mugged, attacked, losing focus, or not getting the essential practice.

And he also has the OSL semifinals against Maru.

Even the ESF guys? And even the Liquid and Axiom guys?


ESF might not want to pay for flights, Liquid is sending HerO since it's probably cheaper than sending TLO from EU, and I dunno about Alicia and Ryung but,

/summon TotalBiscuit TB Axiom


Our guys want to play the WCG qualifiers.


Kind of cool that /summon worked. Just saying.

He searches his own name a lot, pretty much all pros and personalities do it from what I've heard.

So now even IEM is mostly korean event? Seven koreans out of 12 and only two europeans (not counting open bracket). This must be most boring IEM ever.

That's certainly an interesting opinion that you have: 2005 SKY Proleague and if they've been playing for "over a decade" you presumably also count 2003 KeMongSa KPGA Tour Team League and the 2004 SKY Proleague.

A protoss who's really good at 2basing zerg vs jaedong? Sounds like a quick 4:0 tbh

qxc got a interesting group. If he somehow manages to advance he could possible go far. If he fails we would get the best analytic desk. ToD + qxc

Its a win-win situation for viewers.

Heh. That is a rough draw. Put the training montage from Rocky on in the background. Eye of the Tiger! A few more clichés and victory is within your grasp...
