Don't know but to be honest I don't understand why Lilbow gets invited to an event that was supposed to be Korean only after they got booted from Katowice?

Well they also didn't get us the top performers of the IEM season either. So just pretend like they never said anything like that.

Oh well, lets hope his training for LOTV will pay off now since they are Koreans and he was preparing to face them in LOTV not some foreigners do some random non-meta stuff

This invitation system is wrong for a WCS level tournament. It should be removed. All players should qualify in their regions. Its not fair to other players...

It's not a WCS tournament. It's a throw-money-at-some-players tournament.

I really hope IEM is doing a global event later on. They were always sick events before this year and if this is the best they have to offer us I'll be severely disappointed.

Pretty strange invite list regardless . Not even Zest when he's the reigning IEM champ?

I'm just praying it's because Proleague starts next week and most KeSPA players refused. Only acceptable version of this reality. I mean, they didn't even get Solar and Solar plays in everything!

Can we at least have WCS points this year in pl since Korea got fucked as hard as they did?

Probably not, I reckon that'd have been announced when the WCS changes were announced.

We did have a few declines from KeSPA teams due preparations/clashes for/with Proleague/GSL/SSL which is a decision we respect of course. In addition PartinG was confirmed with flight booked but then had some health issues and had to cancel.

ByuN is a boss though, flying back the day before his GSL match. Excited to see him in action, hopefully we can get a nice interview with him via Susie

I'm also glad we can't have a repeat of Snutehosts vs herO from a IEM Toronto open bracket.

All in all, it should be a fun and interesting event.
Former ESL League Operations. I ran IEM/WCS for like 3 years or something. I did map vetos on a tablet. That guy.

Good to know, thanks for that!

Also did you just confirm Proleague to start next week?!
