Can someone who understands the draft process explain it in more detail?

I don't understand why some teams (Hwaseung) would draft in the first round, not draft in the 2nd round, and draft in the 3rd round. Shouldn't there be more/better players left in the 2nd round than in the 3rd round? Perhaps more players were opened up to be drafted in the 3rd round?

Also, why was KimDoWoo (If.Classic) drafted in the 3rd round if he was one of the most notable players (I'm assuming that means he's one of the best)?

3rd round was the first round teams actually drafted regular guys, the first two rounds were for "reserved" players, who were practice partners already living with the teams, they just hadn't gotten in officially yet. So, If.Classic was actually the first guy to get picked that wasn't already on a team. I think IdrA mentioned before that he was one of the best players not on a team as well, so it makes sense

I read interviews at FOMOS and it said he was #1. #2 was this terran drafted by Estros 20 wins and 4 losses (If.Classic). I can translate these very short interviews on Friday maybe if you want to see em.

Well, I think they're already in the OP, but if not definitely translate them!
I just thought it'd be interesting if they posted everyone's stats.

Is it just me or do zerg IDs get less original as time goes by?

ipxzerg>zergbong>thezerg>zerg[kal]

kal being the clan tag, so it's really just zerg.....

Also zergbong is older than savior.

hmm i would put the originality of zergman between zergbong and thezerg.

On the bright side, I don't think it's possible to get even less original than just... zerg.

But maybe they will suprise me.

Ahhh that makes sense. I'm glad Estro got to draft first.
