It'll be good to see the players SlayerS is going to field. Hoping for some good games. =)

I believe its because TL doesnt have enough points. The points are somehow calculated from the individual performances of the team members.

Furthermore SlayerS is 1st in the zotac team invitational. ZeNEX is 2nd so it's pretty crazy they're at it together in the first round. Should be exciting.
Edit: Further clarification (Link).

I believe the Ro8 are by seed as well (oGs has 8 code S players, no Code A players, so they're first, and they play the 8th seed, 2nd seed plays 7th, etc.)

No liquid is trailing behind in 9th in terms of points from what I can recall. *Edit: somebody beat me to it!

The GSTL is only 4 days long?
I thought the GSTL was it for February. Are we having the team league concurrent with Season 5, or do we really only get 4 days of Starcraft in February?

Pretty powerfull line up there, hopefully all teams will bring their top players. Should be an awesome event

It's a week before GSL5 and it is 4 days of GSTL according to their schedule. Remember that after the finals there will be Korean new years holliday according to their schedule so there will be 2 weeks in between the GSL season (4 and 5) in which the GSTL will be scheduled to play.

All I can say is hell its about time. Too many people playing this game to have something like just GSL for individual players, this is really healthy for things even its all koreans(at the moment I hope? :o)

So GSL season 5 starts around Valentine's Day? D'aww.
Too bad that makes the Team Liquid basically a side show for bragging rights, though.
Edit: Team LEAGUE a sideshow, I mean. Team LIQUID is obviously a manly team for manly dudes.

IM vs. fOu finals, I reckon.
