I heard it was based on ladder ranks, and if so then it makes sense tgun isn't included as he wasn't laddering too much on SEA last season while in Korea.

Good thing slayers_dragon isn't in there, since he smashed our server.

so I guess moonglade wins then eh? I remember red archon from old sotg where they read out ladder rankings, that's about it.
|
Americans that dont follow our scene what so ever surprised they dont know anyone? Amazing.

YoonYJ and RedArchon are my picks for giving mOOnGLaDe a run for his money, at least they have in the past, secretly cheering for brotoss nGenLight to be the only protoss except naniwa at blizzcon.

Few SEA players are GM on NA ladder as well as the SEA one.

Wow, lowest prize pool yet of the invitationals. All have been at 24K with the China one being 18K. Even the Latin American invitational was at 24K.

ahaha, I'd love to see tguns face skrew up in confusion as he reads that.
Bit of a shame Iaguz is also missing from that list, definitely better than some of the others

Not sure if it's the actual reason but SEA has the most potential cost of flights for the players seeing it's a bunch of spread out islands and players from any of a dozen or so countries are potentially in the finals.

Cool story, bro.
I didn't get invited because Blizzard doesn't say _when_ they're taking the list of who gets invited: I was recently constantly in the top 8, thinking they took the rankings around the tournament date. From what I've been told, they actually take their list WAY earlier than that; it's very frustrating, but it happens. I think they need to be clear on how they determine their invites, though... without stating how (or when) they take their list, they could put down 8 random names and be able to justify them as we aren't able to challenge them.
And yes, before I'm asked. I'm mad. x_x;

(It's the top 8 average across the entire season!)
