I'm OK with the fact that the brackets are all arranged, but if they actually pick the maps to favour Moon and stuff like that it would be pretty ridiculous and only hurt them in the long run.

How RIDICULOUS would it be if Jinro defeats the icon of WC3 and then the icon of SC1?

Don't do it, Jinro! They'll hire a hitman and

lol if Jinro beats the WC3 icon and Brood War icon that would be so awesome for the teamliquid website.

idk what you're thinking, but jinro is the clear favorite, regardless of map, he has far more experience then moon(in sc2), it would be retarded to think it would be an "achievement" or "noteworthy" if jinro did win, or has the GSL warped people's perceptions to see superior players(based on history) winning as unexpected.
Huh...

What's the matter with maps? Come on! Do you think it would be better if the map pool was Delta Quadrant, Jungle Basin, Steppes of War?

Stats dont account for anything. Could be just variance.

Plus who cares! BOXER IS SO COOL in TVT. Its actually damn good watching TvT when he is playing

Yea some rigging is obvious, like how they never seem to have any mirror matches? That must be the most obvious rigging in centuries

Jinro already beat moon once in a ladder game(replay in a TL weekly pack), so i hope he does it again.
Jinro vs Boxer would also be epic for the foreign crowd

I don't see a problem with this even if they purposely made the brackets easily for Boxer. It is in the best interest of GOM and SC2 for Boxer to go far and even win. Zergbong winning was nice and all, but if GOM really wants SC2 to become the main e-sport, a figure such as Boxer or NaDa has to win it.

IMO TvT is the manliest matchup. It takes the most skill to win it. Just because you have the superior number sometimes doesn't translate directly into advantage because of siege tanks. TvZ is kinda gimicky cuz it's all about how well you are at cheese/timing push. TvP is kinda like TvT but T is slightly favored at pro's level.

this is wrong. 100% of TvTs are won by T.

7 out of 9 when 50% of the players are Terran is not TOO fishy.

However, 5 out of 6 ZvX getting steppes of war......... >>

are you trying to say they are trying to get a race other than zerg to win it this time?

This is pretty absurd, basing SC2's success on two players? Boxer himself would not like that at all. If you were a player in the GSL wouldn't you want a fair competition? Blind fanboyism is fine, but really, it's kinda selfish to want the tournament rigged so your favourite player can advance.

Like I said before, it may not seem much, but a jump from Ro32 to Ro16 is a pretty significant increase in prize winnings. Screwing people out of $1000 is never fine by any standards. Especially to all the newcomers who make up a large portion of the tournament participants.

Everyone wants Boxer to do well, but even the Emperor himself would like to win through fair means.

Anyone who thinks rigging is necessary to further develop e-sports, needs to reconsider their stance of supporting e-sports. Take away the fairness of competition, and everything goes downhill from there.

PS - HI JAYCEE don't see you posting often here

Or maybe his best matchup is TvT because that's the one he keeps getting and is practicing the most for.

I don't understand why they don't just seed the 32 most "anticipated" players, or the best players from previous seasons, whatever floats their boat to get more viewers, and then just add them randomly with the other 32 "not so anticipated" players, and don't give out some ranks to the different seeds, just draw straws and let the brackets then sort out themselves and no "seeded" player can play one another until Ro32, as long as they have a bigger chance in Ro64.. which I don't mind

This will be the S-class tournament from now on.
the farm ends here
