Maybe they have no qualifier in Iran! That's also one of the purposes of this master... The esport spirit of the ESWC is to gather the teams from all around the world, not only the best teams...

I guess that tells how great an organization SK has. Having said that, I am damn surprise how many teams SK actually have - so it is indeed a domination. GL to all the SK teams in each and every tournament!
