Even with only a few days away from the main event of MSI Masters Gaming Arena, KT Rolster player Joo "Zest" Sung Wook has decided to pull out of the competition due to commitments to Proleague.
The decision was almost to be expected, as KT Rolster's final match of this round decides whether or not they advance to this round's playoffs. Their Season Playoffs spot is not entirely secure either. Even though fans would have loved to see him at an international event again,  Zest is still competing for the award for most wins in Proleague and has been KT's best player this round (with a flawless 6-0 record). Helping his team in this crucial match at the very least makes sense.
Zest is replaced by sOs. Jin Air are already out of the running for this round, but their Season Playoffs ticket has been secured.
It is important to note however that the other two participating KeSPA players, Lee "INnoVation" Shin Hyung of SK Telecom T1 and Kang "Solar" Min Soo of Samsung Galaxy, has not pulled out despite their teams also being part of Proleague.

Cooooool!!! The competition becomes 1500% more interesting ... as sOs needs every single point for BlizzCon ... and with sOs and JaeDong, MSI becomes a top event for fans!!!

Yes, he does pretty bad in the last few months ... losing to everyone, even Bunny ... and a success at a live event abroad is exactly what might turn this situation - remember Curious ...

It's funny because KT are screwing over TY with this. He's currently in the #16 WCS spot, going to Blizzcon. Guess what happens if sOs wins this!

Teams always only care about their top player unfortunately.

It won't, those points are already accounted for. Even with TY's Ro4, sOs is only 100 points behind.

if ty wanted blizzcon he should have won more shit throughout the year and earned more points
the job of a team is not to hold players hands by manipulating tournament lineups so they get cake points

I am pretty sure, each of them will need several hundreds additional points to get to BlizzCon ... and the 16th spot will definitely not be reserved for any of these two ...

But when TY beats Byul with op mech builds he'll be safe.

I always had this feeling that KeSPA teams never really cared about foreign fans that much. Samsung is a little different story(and exception) since the company is world wide. And again, it's my feeling, maybe they care but do not show it. So as much as Blizzcon is big tourney and stuff, it's not Korean tournament :/

There's a good chance SSL & GSL will be won by players in the Top 15 and it'll be sOs vs TY for the 16th spot

But HyuN is in MSI and will most likely get his travel points from DH as well.
