EPTTogether with all the other invites and the qualified players, the lineup is incredible. TSL3 will be a benchmark for future "international" tournaments.

We had no idea that Moonglade would be travelling to Korea, nor that MarineKingPrime would make a second finals appearance. While these events may not have changed the invite list at the end of the day, they were never present in our discussions since they had not happened yet. Warning: It is HIGHLY recommended that you read the full OP and explanation post (below it). Uneducated opinions/questions that have already been answered will be dealt with accordingly. Off to a good start there, Cassim. Excited about the picks, I kind expected Boxer and Nada but for some reason totally missed MVP! Also freaking chat went NUTS when you guys trolled us with BitByBit, holy shit. Even I was like LOL WHAT THE FUUUUU I wasn't even sure you were joking until after you told us all the invites and I did a recount. Dammit Chill. You have too good of an ability to keep a straight face while trolling thousands of people. | ||

(i don't even know where he placed in this). Gainward he was the only one to take a game off mvp, and it was in the semis. I cannot see how you can just throw that away as "got stomped my mvp". He ended up getting 3rd, smashing byun. Also remember this tourney had a 768 player prelim. http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/Gainward_SC2_Tournament He wasn't in ygosu (at least according to: http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=177383), but if he was, he sure would've done well. In the gisado gsl koth thingy he only played in one of the games and beat inca and top, but lost 2-1 to MC (http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=178835) He also played in the GOM all stars getting 2nd to kyrix (http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/GOM_TV_All-Stars_Invitational_2010 I think the terran invites are fine, but you cannot say that mkp didn't deserve an invite EVEN based on data pre-gsl4 | ||

TL is doing great things with TSL3  So YOU believe player X > player Y and therefore deserves an invite.. hmm still pretty weak; Maybe if they invited nobodies that we didn't care about; or had next to zero skill.. then there may be call for uproar - but these are top players that are going to put on a great show! Kick ass tournament incoming.. | ||
