MKP gets another brutal first round opponent. Alicia vs MC is another painful first rounder.
Other than that its looking great! |

Most appear a little one sided, but the ones I'd be looking forward to straight up would be:
MMA vs Lyn
Inca vs Ryung
Rain vs Keen
Genius vs Boxer
Squrtle vs MKP
Alicia vs MC
Huk vs san
Those are the ones I'm personally looking forward to. |

Squirtle hasn't shown anything since like 2 or 3 gstl's ago. Seems like a 1 hit wonder but maybe I'm wrong. Mkp should take it easily. |

| Does that mean when Bomber and Nestea win their Ro64 matches they'll meet in the Ro32? I don't know if I'm happy that they'll play each other or sad that it'll be so early. =\ |

| it does suck that the will be no europeans but the ones that are currently already in Korea but what do you expect starting to get to the point where why would a foreign player want to go to Korea, to try to get into a stakced pool of players in Code A earning no money?? Not to mention of the payers invited through WC, maybe they cant just keep going to korea for one off tournaments, especially not when they will miss MLG as well as other leagues such as NASL etc... |

Assuming this is in order, sure. But is it in perfect order? If so, would love to actually just see a massive bracket image created so we can all do our "fantasy brackets" for GSL Super Tournament. |

Min vs July
Fruitdealer vs Ace
I am not pleased. They should have a non televised loser bracket. |

| So only and Huk and Jinro to represent the foreigners then, hoping to see Huk go far in this. Going to have some awesome matchups to look forward too |

The problem is that going to Ro16 only nets $1780, which barely covers the plane ticket. So with only Ro8 and up being profitable to foreigners, what's the point?
The prize structure is too top-heavy. Baseball players in the minors don't make the big bucks, but at least they make a living wage. Progamers don't get anything unless they're the elite of the elite. |

and you have to be top 2 in MLG to cover the cost of many europeans, so what's the point? It's that mentality that non koreans think they can't compete with the koreans. They should feel they are equally skilled... if you can make top 2 of MLG you should be able to get top 8 in super tournament. If you win the whole super tournament, it would pay off way better. |

| HOLY SHIT 91k USD for the winner 27,570 for the runner up wow. Biggest Sc2 prize yet. They should really spread the prize pool more. |

Highly doubt top 2 in MLG is comparable to top 8 in this super tournament. Getting top 8 in this thing is going to be much much harder with people preparing rigorously before matches. Hell winning MLG will be easier than top 8 IMO. Cept maybe if your Jinro, since he's got the easiest possible group. |
