i for one could care less if player x gets invited over player y in a tournament, a good player will always find a way to showcase his skill regardless of what tournament he gets invited to, if its not this tournament it'll be the next one. im actually excited to see some new blood within the competitive scene, makes it much more exciting and im sure everyone is curious to see how well they stake up against high level players
edit: oh yea and my picks are:
GanZi Illusion Stephano < Violet <
Group 2 Sheth Taeja < Thorzain SaSe <
Group 3 Bomber Ostojiy HuK < MC <
Group 4 Ret < LastShadow PartinG Squirtle <
with ret winning it all unless he runs into stephano
We know you love Ret but still... I don't think he can beat MC and Squirtle, probably not Violet or Stephano either. And Huk is like the anti-ret ultimate weapon.
Could see him beat the rest though.

Yes, I think everyone is letting Red Bull invite LS. I don't think anyone is preventing Red Bull from doing so or LS from accepting. But even so, I think we should be allowed to voice our concerns to Red Bull regarding a poor quality invite. |

Serously, I hope it happens. As do I. Good thing the probability is high as well.

Let's take a look at other NA talents that didn't get invited.. over him. Demuslim QXC Select* IdrA Scarlett Spades (who almost qualified for Spring arena 2) Major (who almost qualified for Spring arena 2) Minigun DDE Axslav Catz Attero (Qualified for HMC 4) Slush State
Your skull must be thicker than your waist line Desrow. None of the players you listed would have made a splash when the announcement was made (except Scarlett), and that was the entire reason Day9 chose LS in the first place. There are "better" players in terms of results on that list, but that is not the reason why LS was invited.
Insulting every single person who disagrees with the choice of last shadow only makes you look like more of an asshole, and less of us agreeing with why he was invited. Starting off every post with a "you are retarded" line isnt exactly going to make anyone change their mind.
There's really no convincing people who are going to believe whatever they want to believe in lieu of the facts of the situation, so I don't see the problem with calling out someone for being thick (saying I called him "retarded" is putting words in my mouth) when they're going on about how much better of an invite other players would be when it's impossible for 12/13 players listed to fill the role Day9 explained LS is filling.Last edit: 2012-05-26 08:19:35 |

desRow, it is my understanding you know Last Shadow personally.
Can you let us know what his level of play currently is? I have never seen him in a tournament before, what can we expect to see? Macro terran? Cheeser? What is his best matchup?Last edit: 2012-05-26 08:12:22 |

desRow hates Last Shadow? Why?
Do you know the level of Last Shadow's play? Can you tell me what sort of player he is? Or do you hate him too? |

I doubt Desrow has talked to him since LS got kicked out of the GOM house. |

You can find out about a lot of this stuff using Google. There's a recorded physical confrontation between LS and Desrow, obviously hard feelings there.
LastShadow can either be incredibly cheesy or very macro-oriented, from what I've seen on his stream in the past few months.

Now why would you hope anyone to lose? I don't think he deserves the invite either, but no one should hope for a player to fail. |

I predict him taking a game vs each protoss because he plays weird style no other terran does. Those style on papers are extremely bad but if he can deny scouting and the protosses don't have the right army composition, they will lose aka 2base 1-1-1 with 2port banshee deny scouting if no phoeniexses protoss is screwed or he goes full mech some unorthodox styles like that. he has no chance against ret imho |
