It's been SO long since we've had a really big individual league in NA. Oh sure, we've had a little bit of data. I've watched the TL Opens get dominated by Europeans, I've watched a few Americans get invited to European invitationals, and I've kept track of the ladder, SGL, and GCPL. But I don't know if any of this tells us as much as, say, an MLG. I want to know... who is going to dominate this season? Will we see a "new wave" of players tearing it up like the one that's developing in Korea? GosI[Terran] and Skew are back, as is Artosis; are they gonna be good? Will they even make it into anything? vVv seem pretty good, can they land top spots in big individual leagues? Gimme some opinions!

Tyler will do fantastic also, as he was considered one of if not the best foreign broodwar player, and just needed time to figure out this game. ( his showmatch v jinro at pax east was really good). You will see a lot of bad players be weeded out. All those people who have lived off 2 base timing attacks will dissapear. Morrow will also be good imo, as will whiteRa, basically anyone who is a decent macro player now.

Plus I personally see a lot of potential in XlorD, but that's just me As for NA, well, IdrA is a safe call. He will always be the guy to beat for Nr.1 spot in tournaments, as long as no Koreans participate. I don't know enough about NA scene to name people that I think will dominate, that does not mean that I believe there aren't any. And of course there is this one guy who is gonna win every single tournament from now: + Show Spoiler +
