So ye, luck is a little less involved, but some players aren't lucky. | ||

Code S for life  Sad to see MMA didn't make it but it was a really strong attempt and comeback. All in all, amazing event for OnFire/N3rdStreet/Team Expert. Well done and keep up the good work, best wishes for 2018. | ||

The overall format has to compromise between accurate rankings and number of games played. With a limited number of games, the format has to choose which part of its ranking it wants to be most accurate. Of course, it has to make sure the top ranks are the most accurate. So the accuracy of top 32 and beyond is what suffers the most in the compromise. But quadruple elimination is pretty forgiving. You cannot fail to make the top 32 without at least four people defeating you. Theoretically you could be the 5th best player in the tournament and not make the top 32, but it's very unlikely. The players who make goals of top 32 or top 16 have to accept the fact that the format is not designed for their goals to be totally meaningful. | ||

I don't care how. I'm just pissed. No matter the fact that Maru and $O$ made it. Sure they can. Just obtain a visa in any of the WCS regions and live there. For the longest time, that's what foreigners had to do to be the best and survive in the SC2 environment. Foreigners would come and train in Korea. So when the Korean opportunities are more limited, they should have to make the effort to go to a WCS region and live there and see if they can succeed. Honestly, if they can't make it here, I seriously doubt they would do that well in any other region. | ||

Getting a visa isn't that easy... you can't just be like "Well hop on a flight to America where you know no english and have no connections whatsoever- no visa? Just get it" | ||

You're a supporter of the death of the GSL, only because, at one time, the foreigners were not protected. And according to you, great bright spirit, the Koreans have to pay for this time ... Really childish reasoning. | ||
