They all scored some points since then (November 2nd) , but I dont think that makes that much difference.
Maybe they wanted some money after all?

Appearently the seeding is meantto be done by Global Points.
It still doesn t make sense, as that should mean, Inno is invited instead of TY.
TL,DR: there was probably a mistake made in the seeding and invitation process or a Buch of Players forfeit their invites

Why Inno over TY? TY has shitload of points because he won Code S1 and 3, wtf? Like you wanna ignore the Korean points in the KOREAN INVITES?

Because they said, that seeding is done via Global points only. That would also explain, why Zest gets invited over Stats.
Obviously it would 100% male sense to use the normal standing for Korea anyways.
BUT neither method would yield the invited players:
Kr + Global points:
1 TY 2962
2 Rogue 2660
3 Maru 2260
4 Stats 2045
(7) Zest 1715
Global points only:
1 Rogue 1455
2 Maru 1135
3 Zest 1035
4 Inno 955
(8) TY 622

I don't see anything saying the invites were done by just Global points though. The non-Korean side of that adds up as well, Reynor, Serral, Clem and Special have the most points if you throw all foreigners into one interregional standing. But that doesn't really explain Zest as long as nobody forfeited their spots, then later decided to play anyway.
Also the points you're using are wrong because the cut-off date for invites was November 2. But I'm pretty sure that that doesn't push Zest up 4 places either.

Yeah, someone else just told me that as well.
But as you said, ASUS ROG didn t change anything in either standing.

I like the flat prize money distribution!

Yeah its about 1000 x better than ASUS Rog or 99% of the Chinese tournaments.

Where is my seeding for tomorrow? 
It can't possible be that someone has something better to do than the seeding for TSL!

This aged great 
E.: out now

What a bracket ey, shame so many good players will drop out with no loser bracket protecting them in R1. But as last time with Tsl, should see a lot of surpises happen
|
It's a legitimate question whether the GSL champion will survive the opening round. If he does he's probably going to the loser bracket right after.
|
The tournament is super stacked, it's a GSL ro16 without Inno(and maybe sOs) plus the best foreign players(with the notable absence of TIME, Scarlett and MaNa).
The loser bracket starting after ro32, however, turns great matchups into terrible ones: Byun vs Clem and Neeb vs Showtime especially, imho.

Is TY still playing mostly BW or did he switch back to SC2?

do invitees get 225 points for "qualifying" ?

The BW tournament he was playing in ended yesterday so he could be back to playing more SC2 at this point but definitely not like a GSL title is on the line. And really he's not gonna look into MaxPax's style which will make it much harder when he's already not in shape.

225 is prize money, not EPT points. Would be hilarious though if the 8 invited players got 225 points and the tournament champion only 250.

Yeah that worked out really bad. Also went unfortunately for many people still fighting for a Katowice spot (e. g. Byun or Lambo).
