2nd Tier in comparison to Idra and Ret maybe, but still very good, definitely a lot better than the "ordinary" B ranked Zerg. Certainly better: IdrA, Strelok, GosiTerran, Brat_ok, Mana, White-Ra, Draco, Dreiven, Nony, Iefnaij, Ret, Mondragon, Sen, Hayder, Xiaozi Probably better: Cloud, mOrrow, Kr, Arew, Fenix, Castro, Naugrim, Fenix But that was back then, I have no idea how much he has progressed. I still think if Pusan isn't totally inactive, he should crush. Some of this are really arguable (like mOrrow, never was a fan of anything but his TvZ). But you saying he was B+ is a bit of a joke. He was also pretty late to come in the scene (not as late as kolll, but still). I also remember this idra interview were they asked him what he thought of all the groups, and he wasn't sold but not really negative. And yes he has improved. As for Pusan he streams a lot, but he's not a progammer anymore. He's the obvious favorite, but I still think this is worth watching =) I can't say certainly of course, and my memory is mixed with these players now playing SC2, so people like Morrow and Mana might have not been as good as I now think they were. But anyways, I'll try to watch too; I was just surprised that people were excited as if this was an even match. If sziky takes a game of Pusan, it'll be good in my eyes.
I don't think anyone thinks of this as an even match. Hey, even if it was Ret in his prime, I'd say Pusan is favorite for sure. Still, people have a lot of faith in Sziky's ability to show good games, to revive the WCG spirit and to show that foreign bw is still solid. Foreigner vs Korean is very rare this days.
Edit : Plus Pusan is a big name that we can't see play anymore. For instance I expect Plexa to tune in and I doubt he has watched any foreign bw since SC2 came out.

Yeah, very hard to draw a line between foreign legends and up and coming players like Sziky in hindsight. He wasn't bad at all, I certainly wouldn't call him 2nd Tier 
I'm actually happy about the fact that a name like Pusan accepted a show match against a foreigner. That alone is reason enough to tune in. I have good faith that Sziky did his best to show how good he is, even when he's the clear underdog here.

Phew, glad I remembered it was happening today. Whatever happens I am hoping for some good games.
Ok, screw it, GOGO Sziky.

I think he was just fucking around with this build, underestimating Sziky.
