What if it's the guy who's been scamming people? No, Inui would never invite fraudulent idiots.

Inui doesn't invite the foreigners.. TBS directly does. And for the record the NBC Americans haven't been chosen yet.

Hoping for Rob Moravsky, if only for another chance to see his fake-a** 'concentration face' where he looks like an overdramatic teenager with anger issues.

It better not be Joe Moravsky, for Arsenette's sake. #NeverArgueWithArsenette

Less to do with said person being a jerk (never heard anything negative off the course) and more to do with said person being undeserving in the eyes of the ISC (Internet Sasuke Community) Well Reko would be one that is undeserving, but another one? Joe Moravsky? I'm not one for pulling out the InternetToughGuyHammer, BUT: Pretty sure you have no idea who Reko is or what he stands for if you're saying that. He's easily the most well-traveled ninja on this side of the world (Perry Oosterlee being the only person in the world who travels for ninja stuff more than Reko). He's constantly going to ninja gyms all over the country and helping to connect the community, and he has a ton of respect and admiration for Sasuke. Yes, he blew up because he had a brilliant idea that he executed well that landed him millions of YT hits, a showing on ESPN, and a daytime talkshow appearance. That's a reason to envy him, not belittle him. Yes, he set up GoFundMes to pay for his trips overseas. I might not like that he gets so much money from them, but that's my jealousy talking, because honestly? I did the same when I went to Vietnam. If people want to support him financially, that's his and their business, not ours. So please explain why he's undeserving. Because he's never had a great ANW showing? That doesn't mean anything. Neither Bernardo nor Stratis have ever made Stage 3 on this side of the Pacific, but I'd argue they're the two MOST deserving individuals for a Sasuke spot. The best representatives of the US for Sasuke are the ones who are the biggest fans of Sasuke (AKA why Issac should never be allowed over there, but that's a different story). Reko's a good friend of mine, and while he has his hangups, we all do. He's gonna represent the community and the US very well while he's over there, and I'd appreciate it if you didn't start bashing people without any real information. Kthx. /endrant

I believe it's safe to say Isaac will be in Sasuke 32. Looks like he made a typo on his Instagram post where he said Japan's 3 "days" away, when it's actually 3 weeks away. Regardless of what people think of his personality, attitude, and past actions, it's fair to say Isaac is one of the strongest competitors, if not, the strongest competitor, to date. TBS will have another champion on their hands if they don't prepare for Isaac. It's the truth. He's still very capable of making errors on the course, but he has a very real chance at winning in Japan.

All things being equal, do we assume that there will be a more-insane version/difficulty of the CCH at 32? Since Morimoto won and all? I personally don't believe Issac is capable of clearing an obstacle he hasn't practiced on intensely (or that he can't gain a massive adv with via his height)...so I'm really curious to see him do the forced 180 on the CCH (which he still might make) or the Nagano tower (which I have BIG doubts about as far as he's concerned).

Kthx. /endrant I guess my wording didn't come out the way I intended it. In terms of the ISC community, I was thinking they would think Reko is undeserving. I did not in any way mean I personally think he is undeserving, but just due to his ANW showings I would imagine many to feel that way. I have spoken to Reko in Vegas last year, and he's a super nice guy that honestly seems extremely into the sport (more than many of the so-called top competitors just from how he talks). And the YT thing helped too. I'm sorry my words sounded that way, I was more talking about how the ISC would interpret it, as per the previous post.

Does anyone know if drew or geoff is competing in sasuke 32? I was invited to sasuke 32! Sadly they moved the dates of the tournament and it's now the day after Philly ANW. Out. If Isaac is competing, he got my spot. He did not have an invite untill I couldn't go. Sucks! I hope you get invited to Sasuke 33 (if it happens at all). So unlucky with the alignment of the dates

No but that sucks. I'm sure ANW didn't do that on purpose (hopefully). Regardless, best of luck in Philly!!

Additionally, everyone here seems to be assuming that: 1) Isaac is in fact invited. 2) He will clear the updated stage 1 and 2 and reach the Cliffhanger.
Neither may be true.
