If I had to guess, which I do because I haven't a clue, I'd say they invited popular players? I mean no offense, but some of these players are worse than a quarter of the players that signed up for the qualifiers. Is it largely to prevent a 32 Korean tournament? I see they invited the representatives from the shunned part of the world (except China) to the NA tournament. Some of the invitees seem pretty random.
Four Koreans qualify from WCS AM Prelim Day 1 - Page 3

I wanted to believe in the WCS model so bad. It's really hard being a fan of the North American SC2 scene when you have so little going for you. if you want storyline, go watch wrestling or some other stupid shit lol | ||

Its makes me sad, in Europe there has been the motto "we try to hold against koreans", but in Na, people just say "weve got no chance, they are koreans". It really hurts to see players like Demuslim, who is dominating NA Ladder, loose to a zealot / stalker / MSC poke. This is a tournament, you dont do triple expand from 2 marines without dying, jesus. Do not compare WCS EU qualifiers to the NA qualifiers. A small number of weaker Koreans went over to the EU qualifiers and one made it through, And the Koreans suffered greatly from latency issues. A lot of Koreans came over to NA qualifiers and the connection between NA and KR is better. The results are to be expected unfortunately. | ||

You guys are only fighting weaker Koreans and less of them + much more lag on your side. NA is pretty much like Helm's Deep under siege in terms of the Korean onslaught, and Gandolf is not coming in the morning... | ||

Remember, this is just the premier league that they're trying out for, and the bottom 24 from that drop straight into the challenger league. The gauntlet's been thrown down; it's time to get better or die trying. | ||
