according to mym's website, 8 players will compete for a 33000 $ prize-pool. So far 2 players are more or less confirmed, SK.Lyn and mTw.WhO

6 players to be announced soon !_! yay

If they seed Grubby I'm not gonna watch this event. I don't want to see this unskilled sucker in top events. Top30 does not belong to such a tournament!! Give new players a chance!!

Moon,Sky, Fov,Tod should get invited too.

already 2 orcs, if they invite a 3rd one it will be fly i think as the tournament will take place in china

I think inviting a 3rd orc would be kinda disappointing , maybe inviting 2x each race would be nice since the chance of getting a mirror match would be smaller

couldn't agree more, i hope we get to see 1 or 2 "new" faces like soccer, xlord, infi, happy instead of the old washed-up players

Inviting more than 2 Orcs would just result in more than 2 Orcs in the top4.

Go 6 orcs plz

they should invite 2 europeans to make it more interesting. tod has to be one for the winning the last weg masters, and one of sase/hot/happy as the other.

its gonna be a crime to invite grubby since every time hes invited, hes sent right back home after the group stage.

sase/hot/happy can't do worse than grubby at least.

grubbys second place last time dont matters :o

I would like to see HoT/ToD/Happy there!

Wow such hard decisions for this WEG.

I would pick
Lyn 100%
Who 100%
Moon 100% - best player in the world
Sky 100% - probably still 2nd best player in the world
Ted 100% - only UD worthy sadly
Remind 75% - good chance to place, probably 2nd best NE currently and SK drawcard
Grubby 50% - fame helps, outside chance to place but expensive to fly to tournament
Sase 50% - likely to be invited if in china / korea still, very good form, not so famous
th000 50% - entertaining player who can upset anyone, bad eye candy
Fly100% 50% - famous player for chinese, form finally coming around.
Tod 50% - fame helps, outside chance to place but cheap to fly to tournament, personality bad
Reign - 25% probably the 2nd best UD, that isnt saying much
Soju 10% - good past accomplishments but bad form
Hot 10% - slim chance to place and hasnt quite managed to do accomplish too much
Xiaot 10% - outgunned by Fly100%
Susiria 10% - wins when he should lose, can upset
Lucifer 5% - really need another UD but his form is very bad

Ignoring all of that i would most like to see.

Lyn, Who, Grubby, th000, Moon, Sky, Ted, Sase

Could be an important match tonight for Grubby against Who.

Ops, i forgot infi.

He is probably a 40% chance. Would be higher but he seems to have missed too many tournament qualifiers to prove he should definately get in

hum -_-

Well if we assume that Lyn and WhO are 100% invited , I guess I would like to see Moon and Sky , hm TeD maybe as well + Happy.Then ToD/Th000 and the other elf doesnt matter since they all copy Moon`s strats anyway...

I think these players should be invited
Lyn
Who

Fly
Sky
Th000
moon
Ted
Tod\infi\reign\soju\Fov

Fly 3:0 Grubby , 3:1WhO and 3:0 remind lately , I can't see why not invite him. And Orc is strongest race atm, so 3 orcs is ok . One Ud is enough you know ?

0 UD is enough now

Participants have been announced and they are

WE.Pepsi.Sky
WE.Pepsi.Infi
MYM]Moon
mTwAMD.WhO
SK.Lyn
MYM]Grubby
GG.ToD
GG.HoT

It is a shame Ted misses out, strange decision.

3 hu, 3 orcs and no undead, that's sad

don't worry nubby might dodge this. he'll prob stay home to stomp some dutch lans or zotacs like before.

when he dodges i expect ted to get his invite.

eat the worm mother fucker ! Grubby is the man !

not really into the war3 scene nowadays but if you wanna see some exciting / interesting strategies th000 and TED are a MUST. I'm not sure about the shapes of Chinese orcs nowadays though

Koreans- ReiGn, I don't know why he's always neglected. His timing and micro are simply more worth watching / entertaining.

Moon- self explanatory

for European - ToD for being the former champion.

American - Shriek if LT is included in the map pool

Sky & Infi out
inv Th00 and Ted
grubby out
inv soccer or remind

TERRIBLE...

WE.Pepsi.Sky
WE.Pepsi.Infi
MYM]Moon
mTwAMD.WhO
SK.Lyn
MYM]Grubby
GG.ToD
GG.HoT

fails hard... list should be:
WE.Pepsi.Sky
WE.Pepsi.TeD
MYM]Moon
mTwAMD.WhO
SK.Lyn
GG.ToD
MYM]SocceR
and either MYM]Lucifer/mTwAMD.FoV/SK.ReiGn/Happy (i sway to Happy for a 2nd European inv)

2 of each race, SocceR and TeD get a chance in the limelight, no one should be invited purely based on the fanbase...

Why invite Infi? already 2 humans, he has showed some terrible form lately, and if its because of his country, why not invite TeD??

Why invite Grubby? already 2 orcs, Fly has shown greater form than him recently AND could represent China instead of Infi, if Grubby was invited because of his popularity, WEG need to take a look at themselves...the true spirit of a sport is best player wins, not most popular player gets an advantage...

Why invite HoT? he has had plenty of invites to top tier offline tournaments and still isn't considered among the top players in the world... i can think of a whole heap of NE players who have shown good form lately (ReMinD, Check, WinNers, SocceR, Shy, etc.), if it is because they wanted euro representation, they already had ToD and Grubby invited due to their terrible selections...

my list has 2 of every race, 2 china, 2 euro, 4 korea, gives some new talents a chance (SocceR, Happy and TeD to a lesser extent)... WEG invites fail imo..

the best list atm would be:

- Who
- Fly100%

- Moon
- Soccer

-Reign
-TeD

-Th000
-Sky

If you really need Euro representation then get Hot and Happy (though i don't know if Happy is training now with no Clan, and what about the costs for the voyage?)

They should invite all the guys used to be strong but which sux online.

Mean wNv team, Lucifer

eat the worm mother fucker ! Grubby is the man !

omg so damn low . . . they only invite grubby because they think everyone loves him! Maybe someone tells them that most people hate him!!

Grubby and ToD will rape the shit out of it!

if you think most people hate Grubby, you are really in your own small world batman :/

haha no undead ;DD now thats a good joke, keep on denying orc is the best race currently, raiders/sw/circlets works vs every tactic now
