Indeed, but it's not hard to find multiple possible reasons (not getting flight paid from team, focus on GSL, not wanting to travel that far etc). Still we will get 4 very good player tbh. herO, Zest, RagnaroK, Scarlett, TIME, KeeN and aLive are all good, and not all of them will qualify. I don't think Elazer has any chances after not qualifying in the other two, especially with the lag. Scarlett had 0 chances against that Zest push. What a stomp | ||

a) Players are reluctant at taking this tourney seriously or b) They never heard of it so they don't care or c) They have really poor organization. | ||

How about "If players don't have a team that pays for their travel they would have to make top 4 in a tournament with unannounced invited players if they want to make a profit" | ||

You really should have sorted more invites before the qualifiers. I don't think this system exactly incentivized players to sign up. | ||

If Dark refused an HSC (with paid flight and stuff) invite to focus on GSL, I very highly doubt he'll play in THIS tournament. | ||
