Either way, best of luck to both players : D He was 9th. The 5th foreigner.

Since IdrA and Ret probably said no, first glance would be Slush to Code A (dunno whats going on with him leaving root) then Fenix, Sjow, Sheth, Machine, Major, KawaiiRice, etc.
I'd actually like Sheth to take the spot, since he's going to korea for the GSTL as well.

What does "full" sound to you?

I guess it'll be a fun, yet short-lasting spell for them. Korea just doesn't seem to be worth it in SC2, unless you're the best in the world.

i think if thorzain can get used to korea fast he will do fine as he showed in the tsl3 that he is really good at preparing for a specific matchup. if he stays focused he should do fine~ gonna cheer for him
naniwa...not so sure if he is a player who is better with prep time..i always think of him as the guy who can play solid in a tourney like mlg with no real preparation at hand.
anyone knows who the 3rd player might be?

Wow! Good job Nani and Thorzain, what an honor to be playing on the same team with legendary progamers :D You do good now, show them some swedish steel.
|
|
Sweden fighting! gogo code A TSL3 finals repeat, but this time nani wins D:!
|
Ha ha "Top finishers", Obviously Naniwa deserves this (as does Thorzain, he is a sick, nerd baller) but I think this is actually an indication of how Code A only appeals to those already committed (as both of these players have said they were) to going to Korea for a significant amount of time to train.
[Edit] Let me just also add that I am super excited for both of these players to get the chance to go to Korea and up their skill levels, I think both of them would really benefit from making this move, and there is no one I want to succeed more than these guys as their TSL performances were both absolutely stellar. I want Thorzain to go show the Koreans that Sweden and foreigners can dominate even their best players.

These two always seem to meet each other.. everywhere!

But he could be the third player getting an invite to Code A, no? Results would suggest that is the case. If that happens though, not sure if 4 players is enough for GSTL. WMF might need to add one other player. Such a sick lineup though, best foreign Toss/Terran (arguably, some would say Happy or Select), ex-Code S Terran (Lyn), rising SC2 Zerg Star (Moon). I'm honestly super excited, definitely WMF will be my favourite team in the GSTL.
couldn't you maybe expect Jinro and Huk joining in as well? i meen they aren't getting picked up by oGs it seems and i'd bet they'd want to play GSTL as well for more playing time.

sheth is not gonna compete in Code A. he Said that on TL attack.
|
I didnt watch ThorZaIN play b4, did he use Thor alot? or it is just his nick.
