I'm kind of wondering how the brackets will be set up to guarantee a tyler/mondragon rematch. Because really, they can't expect them to advance beyond round 1 without a doubt, so are they going to place them against each other early on?
That makes me wonder about the brackets, is it going to be random?
If not, we should be arguing about how the brackets are going to be set up, not the terran invites, because honestly, it's going to be.
Jinro, Boxer, MVP, NaDa, and loner because they stressed "Asian invites, not just korean".
Although MKP might be in there also, perhaps instead of NaDa or loner. |

You don't get warned for being wrong - you get warned for making bold statements based on lack of information because otherwise we'll be going in circles of idiotic discussion forever.
I thought you got warned/banned by dissagreeing with choosing haypro over someone like leenock or kyrixs, also feel like lot of these warns/bans are so undeserved. what happened to freedom of speech? ^^
Saying leenock and kyrics deserves it more does not mean haypro by any means is bad, so take that into account before you warn/ban me.

it's not like there were a 100 people banned here, there are maybe 3-4 warnings in this thread and they actually went out to posts that are legitimately stupid...
pretty sure you won't get a warning just by disagreeing with a decision as long as you do it in a respectful manner and don't go "LUL WTF THIS HAYPRO GUY?! HE SO BAD! TL U SUXX!"

I've seen some of Haypro's games, if anyhing they're damn entertaining. He's a true gritty fight to the end zerg. He won't disappoint.
Oh yeah.....how did people talk about Jinro's skills before he started pwning the (#$& out of everyone in MLG and later GSL.
And it probably been mentioned in the thread. The players in Korea have no way of qualifying apart from traveling back to EU/US or do it like QXC and play after assembly. Since the lag is god awful.
I wonder how TL will manage the lag problem in tournament.
Apart from that.....Fruitdealer and Nestea
Holy %^&(_)%^$ !!!!! |

There are plenty of people in the thread who voiced their concerns over HayprO's invite with intelligent, well-thought out posts. They weren't warned or banned. It's the people who bash him and TL for inviting him without considering the fact that he's a member of the team that is running this incredible tournament and can't even attempt to qualify through the TL Opens.
They're right in the fact that he hasn't accomplished a whole lot in SC2 yet, but he's an entertaining player and he deserves the chance to prove himself on what is looking like the biggest SC2 stage outside of Korea.
People seem to forget that tournament invitations are a good chance to get up and coming players who don't have a long list of accomplishments in SC2 but could make for some exciting games and good match ups.
Are Leenock or Kyrix better? Maybe, but they already got the two best Korean Zergs and the two best foreign Zergs living in Korea, why would anyone complain about HayprO?
On that note, this tournament is looking to be incredible. I, like everyone else, am expecting to see some mix of Jinro, MKP, MVP, BoxeR, NaDa, Clide, etc. next week. Any combination of them will make this a completely stacked tournament and a must watch.

Freedom of Speech....wat
This is TL.net not some country and yes they invite their OWN players to their OWN tournament, any other Site or Team would do the same if they ever made a 32k tournament. |

There's a few tournaments that I really appreciate... I have no doubt that this will be one of those 2011!
GSTL brought so many new stars that I've never really seen before, hope this does the same!

Dimaga is better than Haypro and Morrow I think too.
PS I understood now why them can't be qualified. Last edit: 2011-02-14 05:00:44 |

disappointed with the lack of a Morrow invite, but i guess we already knew he wouldnt get one since he's been playing in the tlopens.
impressed and excited as hell thanks to the nestea invite and the confirmations of ret & idra!
Does morrow play on the Korean server? No. He can qualify the same way as any other player in EU - through the EU TL opens. OH WAIT HE ALREADY DID QUALIFY. Teamspeak TL SC2 Open #12 / TSL3 Qualifier #5Edit - added link. Seriously people, these invites are for players who cannot easily participate in the NA/EU TL Opens because they're in Korea. Read.
I think you're mixing it up a little. The link you posted is the registration list, not what they ended up placing in the tourney. Morrow will need a strong finish to qualify, but given his recent performance, I really think he can do it.
Here are the current qualified people, the invites, and the point standings:

| Great invites. I am going to be taking close attention to Idra and Nestea without a doubt. I hope we won't see any ZvZs in the early rounds. It would be a shame to have these great players knock each other out... (and ZvZ is not the most exciting MU) |

It is understandable and predictable that TL would invite their players to the tournament. However, from what I remember it was announced that these invites would be given to "the best and most deserving" players playing in the asian servers. And well.. there are several korean zergs that surely are more deserving than HayprO if this is the criteria, such as July, oGsZenio or even KyrixZenith. July would have been a great pick in my opinion, as he's both a huge name in the scene and is also code S and pretty damn good right now. HayprO, well, he might or might not be good but he really has nothing to show at this moment except the TL tag.
That being said, it's still going to be a great tournament with awesome players playing. I just think this would've made it a little bit better. ;] |
