What people need to realise in regards to the leagues on SEA is that at the masters/GM level. There are literally no active players. Because of this, top Dia players get catapulted into GM when other ppl get kicked for inactivity. You just have to look at the masters/gm leagues to know. There are probably 20 GM's instead of 200. Anyone who is actually GM/masters lvl plays on KR or NA because it actually has competition. I personally feel like GM and masters is just an extension of high diamond.

As for Diamond KR, has it actually been empirically proven that the skill cap at Dia is that much higher on korea? I'm sure that everyone agrees that GM and Masters level KR is obviously a much higher skill level, but is Dia actually that much different? KR still has casual players like SEA too..

I think everyone's opinions is enough proof... It is not that difficult to understand.

Dia has a much higher skill level in KR, SEA GM/M is irrelevant and you are correct HOWEVER Dia on KR is Masters on NA or EU (maybe not for really low dia)... If you are that ******* desperate to play in a GPD or are just too scared to play in M/GM competitions why not just ladder on NA for a while so we can properly gauge your skill rather than just repetitively asking on whether or not you can play...

Ah SEA M/GM is relevant cos carmour is being considered because he's been SEA GM last season.

Quick Comments

	syfRize:	Last season seems a bit over the top .-.
	MezjE:	Agreed, wtf are you on about...

I have laddered NA for ages. I posted a link to my NA profile which has a tonne of games. I reached masters one season on there and struggled. Never been back into masters on NA, only dia.

I'm not desperate by any stretch of the imagination, I just want to play competitive games in a tournament setting. I played in the Masters Cup and lost my first game that wasn't a walkover 2-0 to a meching terran.

Also if you'll check my posts, I have not been repetitively asking to play. My initial post was an application to the tournament, my second was the addition of my NA account for further info to help people make a decision about my eligibility, and the other posts have all been contributing to the discussion of eligibility of KR dia or GM/M SEA.

Sometimes I wonder if people actually read posts before replying.
