Dusty and Momo's invites should've been given to Paula, cruzz, DevM or Aimstrong.
The way I see it, tournament invites should be given out to the best players in the coh2 community, granted they haven't cheated in past tournaments.

But of course yeah, you should be able to blow like 50 chances with Relic and still get free invites just because you play the game quite well.

Relic can use this argument against Paula, or against someone else. But then they must have same rules for everyone, if they want to be fair, and they should explain why they didn't pick Paula, but pick for example Sprice and Barton. This can be easy to explain, if they want to do it.

Hasn't Paula been done for smurfing multiple accounts before?
Pretty sure the same problem was brought to attention on this forum too many times.
Not only that, he acted disgracefully during ESL. Deliberately making opponents wait and breaking time rules.

But I bet that Assbag, Cruzz, DevM, Aimstrong (who have not done anything wrong) can beat some people on Relic's list, who maybe are on the list because Relic think they are "good guys". That is more difficult to explain, if Relic want the best players to participate in the tournament.

Why do you have it in your head that invites were done by who ever is a good guy?
I had better results and more points at the end of the ESL series than Assbag, DevM, and Cruzz. Meritocracy. My invite was earned fair and square, and so is everyone elses on that list.

Deliberately making opponents wait and breaking time rules. The amount of complaints against him from players and moderators during ESL... my word. I had access to that discussion group and it was not pretty lol. Not everyone will know that kind of thing that ESL moderators have to put up with the same way that you wouldn't have known that Jesulin was nearly disciplined in the same way for that kind of behaviour too. Why would they need to tell you?

Is having alt accounts a bannable offense in tournament? You also need to specify if you're talking about his alt accounts while ranked matchmaking, or if he did sign up for OCF, ESL cups orw/e other tourney with an alt account.
Paula to my knowledge never got banned from OCF or any of the ESL cups, so why bar him from an invite for this tourney?
Paula having a lot of alt/smurf accounts is no new revelation. Everyone and their mum knows that Paula smurfs, has many alt accounts and etc, but that isn't a good reason to not give him an invite. Paula has played in the tournaments he's signed up for with his main account, so I don't really see why Relic would decline Paula an invite since he would be playing on his main account, and he's never cheated or been disqualified from a tourney before.
I have no clue what went on behind scenes, so I'll trust you're being 100% honest and truthful. Yes, Paula did do some moves to stall some games, but it appears it was sorted out by the ESL admins since the games were played eventually, and since he never got DQ'ed I assume he stopped those kind of antics when the ESL admins got involved.
SO with that being said, Paula didn't conduct himself 100%, but is that a good enough reason to not invite him(Who FYI is one of the best coh2 players in the community) to a high level tournament?
If we were to go by that logic that Paula didn't get invited because he acted disgracefully, then why is Price and Barton on the invite list? Hell, you can even look at the Olympics and any other competitive sport tournament to see that a lot of athletes don't exactly conduct themselves properly 100% of the time.
Paula got warned by the ESL admins and followed the rules...that's good tournament conduct
That ship sailed there if you've seen a few of the people on the invite list
All i'm saying is that high level competitive play should be prioritised. I'm not alone in believing that Momo and Dusty have less accomplishments and are less skilled than say people like Paula, DevM, Aimstrong, cruzz, and etc.
The invites make it seem like high level competitive play is taking a backseat to people who are on good or relatively good terms with Relic.

Relic's criteria is the player's performance in their latest 4 months cup series. I don't see anything wrong with that. No matter if it's NA or EU, the first 8 guys will be selected. Sounds fair to me. Besides, if you are determined and capable of playing it should't be too hard to score among the top 8 in both qualifiers.

I was just speaking about Paula's behaviour in general. I don't know the exact reasons behind this issue, but i'm just giving my general opinion of why it's most likely been the case. It is bad conduct and probably doesn't help his situation.
I am super honest about these things. I have nothing to lie about. Paula didn't really follow the rules at all on multiple occasions. I'm glad I didn't have to put him during NA games but it sounded like a real nightmare. You've got other top players completely frustrated because of his actions and the casters too.
ESL staff were the ones who were not keen on bans etc in general and a lot of issues did just get resolved and pushed on. I have to hand it to ESL staff how professionally they dealt with those issues as literally nobody in the community noticed at the time. But he was quite out of order to some players, Momo4sho was one of those.
There is a valid explanation for this. 8 players from NA and 8 players from EU were picked. DevM, Aimstrong and Cruzzi are all EU and were placed based against other EU players. You can't take out NA players and replace them with EU players cause that's not how the system worked.
You have to treat the selection of NA invites and EU invites as independent.

This criteria can in fact prevent us from seing the best quality matches in the tournament that is possible otherwise if the criteria were defined in some other/better way. In other words, I am not sure if this is the best way to be sure that the best players participate in the tournament.
I only want to see that the best players plays against the best.

belive or not stormless. I never did that in tourment. if you want my proves.
You can PM me on steam. I saved those poves.
As a PC player since I was 13.
I have joined count less tourney for CS SC WC SC2 COH.
And win some of it. I never cheated or I never creat problems in tourney.
In the other hand I give my opponent a chance to meet me on the ESL fairly and I beat him there.
