If they are getting like 3-4 players to Korea they should take Nony,Cloud,Dinot and maybe Fenix .

Those are the players that they showed some skill in this tournament

Thanks Cloud. Yeah I agree we are both really close in skill level, and we both have styles fitting for Korea, so they should try to take us both

In any case, I'm now a Cloud fan haha. GL at your WCG!

To Yank31, the final map was definitely positionally imbalanced, but in game 3 on othello, Cloud had the position imbalance on me, but didn't do a build that took advantage of it. The positional advantage/disadvantage can be avoided by doing an aggressive reav/goon build, which is what I did in game 3, but it didn't matter since he wasnt trying to abuse it (yet). He did an appropriate build in game 5, especially since he scouted my robo, but waiting for 2nd reaver made his confrontation of my army just slightly too slow, so I snuck in.

My comment was very one sided, I wanted to cheer up Cloud after this ackward last match :/

It was a very good set nontheless, and my sincere congratulations to you !!!!

ENJOY your time over there !

Oh wow, that was a worthy final. Both players really acquitted themselves well, and looked very sharp as, in essence, the representatives of what non-koreans have to offer. Now if only some total moron hadn't spoiled the result of game 5 in the comments on scforall, it would have been completely magical. If you're reading this for some reason and haven't watched the finals yet, cover up the comments section with your hand when you open game 5 and click the x above the comments section to close it out.

Well played to both of you guys. Congrats on the victory, Nony! Both of you definitely deserve a spot in Korea.

Great finals though. Nony and Cloud both played superb. One thing that really stood out to me was NonY's map knowledge. You could tell he really waned to win this. They both played very mechanically sound. Overall great matches! Good luck to both you.

Grats to both. Cloud is slowly but surely proving to all the non believers that he is a S class foreigner

If JF and Draco were in this tournament, I bet they would again be the finalists.

Draco retired from pro gaming and JF openly stated that he thought going pro was a waste of time, so it's pointless to discuss this

Anyway, congrats both players on a great final. You guys both played great throughout, and the final was as close as anyone could have hoped for. I hope they select both of you. I don't think anyone can look at those games and say one player was definitely better than the other.

I think it would be awesome to have 3 foreigners in Korea at the same time. Draco said that one of the hardest things for him was that he was in a foreign land with noone to talk to, so I think having 3 guys that all have pretty good English that can relate to each other is going to be a healthy thing

I'm excited to see what the pro teams are gonna do

That was really great event and coverage.
Artosis was great but my special thx goes to SupaDaniel the best commentator we will ever have. I mean really hes mature, knowledgeable, smart, has great sense of humor. Other commentators are too often hyper enthusiastic ("hes phenomenal", "great foreign star","that overlord micro is so awesome" constantly

) Im not judging Artosis or Tasteless, that is just a benefit of Daniel Lee great experience.

Spirit was great yeah, but a little focused on pro wannabes by its nature. That being said i am really waiting for TSL2 in near future, that is after wcg when all foreing gosus will still have fresh high skill.
