Disappointing that they invited only Koreans after they already took 3 of the 4 Western qualifier slots.


This isn't true at all, the Koreans are just the ones who accepted.


I think tournament organisers should start announcing who they all invited and who declined because you keep getting this negative feedback even though you do not deserve it. Let the fans know which players declined.


Why does it matter though?

Most probably declined because Taipei is in a very awkward position for EU/NA. Takes so long time to travel there compared to Korea. This is the roster we will get, whether we know who declined doesn't really change anything. Ppl blindly hating is always going to be a thing, even if they put the fact right there in front of them.

And what foreigner did you want to be there? Except for Snute there are barely anyone who can compete with koreans nowadays anyway. I hope Snute does very well. But most foreigners has already abandoned ship and gone to heroes of the storm. (grubby pls come back tt)

Daymn pretty stacked... gl to Snute getting out of that open bracket ha

Bit of a shame when after the 4 qualified US/EU players only one of them is actually from that region, but oh well, not like they wouldn't just get crushed anyway (gl Kas)

There has been an update: (T)Kas has dropped out (according to Liquipedia, because of visa issues.) As is verified by the IEM website: (P)Harstem replaces him in his group, where he will presumably continue his Taiwanese Tinder conquests.

Anyone actually going to see it live?

I can't find where you can buy tickets, Garena's official website for the stadium doesn't even have the event listed under their events page...yet?

Well Harstem was third in the EU qualifier, so him replacing Kas is legit, no?

True, that's what I read as well. However, it's very odd because the game show is located at the world trade center, but according to Liquidpedia, the tournament is located at the Garena stadium. Two completely different places.

Unless Liquidpedia was not updated?

Not many Starcraft2 fans here in Taipei, so I'm sure tickets didn't get sold out too quickly. If there are even tickets to buy?

I think there was a misunderstanding when the Taipei page was created. It seems that what happened at the Garena Stadium was the LoL qualifiers.

the main event of IEM will be at the Taipei Game Show

Ah, that's too bad. The Garena eSports stadium is pretty awesome.

However, this makes it much easier to buy tickets. Time to take off of work to see HerO in action.

Thanks for your help Yhamm
