All Top12 Worlds, all Top24 World Standing, Ladues of Top25 of Season Best have 2 spots.

Only three home spots are not filled. It is clear that in Canada it is for Veronik Mallet, in USA - for Lady with one spot (Tyler Pierce if she will not get spot by substitute), in China - may be for foreign skater.

Substitution.
The worst situation is for Russian and Japanese substitute Ladies.
4 Events already have 3 Ladies from Russia, only two (Skate America and Cup of China) have less than three Russians.
The same Japanese - only Rostelecom and Cup of China are open for them.
US Ladies may be substitutes at four Events - all except first and last.

Has the substitution list changed much following Challenger events?

Tyler Pierce is withdrawn from Trophee de France... and I would LOVE to see Da Bin Choi or Na Hyun Kim take her place. But are the Koreans still the top of the list after any Russians or Japanese? (Russia and Japan can't send any more to TdF, they have 3 ladies already)

Polina is out. For Rostelecom at least. And USA still did not replace her. I mean there are 11 ladies now. 1 spot is free.

Anastasia Galustyan (ARM) was just added to BOTH Rostelecom AND Trophee de France...!

Disappointed that neither Da Bin Choi nor Na Hyun Kim got a second GP (specifically, at TdF!), I guess they were too much of a threat to the home team in France - but in Russia?! Well, maybe back-to-back Canada-then-Russia competitions too would have been too much for Da Bin or Na Hyun. Oh well... ;-D Good for Anastasia...

Do you think Mariah Bell will get a second Grand Prix spot?

Maybe it's a question of what the US Federation has to offer the host. It's not like they gave Lipnitskaya's spot to another Russian so I'm not sure if they'd give it to her. Honestly this isn't bad either way for her. If she slays at Nationals she has lots of time to prepare for both could have a good case for Worlds after her silver
