Blackman knocked out Oddysey. Draco and Testie weren't that far from knocking out their opponents last year, too. But overall, yeah, I don't think a non-korean will win this year, nor do I think any non-korean will knock out a pro.

CaSy should have come to WCG, so that Testie could smash him PvT

He is already in both MSN and OSL...
He said "advance in the OSL and MSL" and if he meant what you said, I think he would have wrote "advance to the OSL and MSL". He's referring to the fact that when he was eliminated by Iris, he lost a game on Python and when he was eliminated by FBH, he lost 2 games on Python. So he's saying that if the cursed snake known as Python 1.1 was not in both leagues last season, savior might have advanced farther.

stork owning again, wow he really is impressive. I hope for the best for foriegners although they're probably not gonna get further then top 4.
The only game I remember is some brazilian person beating silent control with the technique of frog leaping with his lurkers, and draco beating midas once on gaia but nothing else really. Go go go!

I think Elky beat HOT in WCG (might have been in group stage) And he might have played a second one since he reached the final vs Boxer

These 3 koreans are the best players atm ! Savior = Best Zerg and Best player Hwasin = Best Terran atm Stork = Best Protoss atm [ srry but I think Stork>Bisu ( I know Bisu is the only who can stop Savior ) ]

blackman_pl > EsSay_kr =)

This is the strongest lineup Korea has ever brought to WCG. Unless they knock each other out in the elimination rounds there's nothing foreigners can do to place.

Hwasin ownage!!!! Too bad Chalrenge won't be there =/

I agree with all except Hwasin. Iris is by far the best Terran player on the planet right now.

it would be weird to have all the korean dudes in the same bracket or group...that'll increase the chances of a non-korean player making it to the top...that would be something...
