Cool, the GSL winner, has spoken. TvP is imbalanced atm in terran's favour.

Read his last interview.

Why is everyone demanding Seeds? Its not like the top players have to play each other in the qualifiers (with 1 or 2 exceptions). It in fact definitely looks like they seeded the top players apart. Tester got a zenith user in his qualifier and failed to beat him in a format which is exactly the same as the main tournament uses, so I don't see anything wrong with it.

It's Tester's fault for switching to a team where he has too few trainings partners. If he really lost to a marine banshee rush he lost to a obsolete strategy (but maybe he didn't have someone to show him the counter),

Protoss are winning more in lower leagues only.
And frankly i prefer giving credit to a progamer opinion than blizzard opinion....
Especially after i saw one of their "balance team" employee match history.

He was bronze 1 v 1 gold 2 v 2 diamond 3 v 3

How they can balance a game with so little experience in 1 v 1 ?

We're above ladder rankings this is the top .0000001% of players pushing the game to its current known limit. In that; Terran is still extremely dominant.

I thought he wanted to be called sSKS now or is everyone just sticking with tester? sucks he was eliminated, seeing how he was one of the strongest players of the first GSL.

Luckily this isn't BW and bad players don't get to hang around just because they did well before. It's unfortunate that he lost to a terran, though.

GSL seasons 1 through 3 are basically qualifiers for an even bigger GSL event next year, it's pretty logical they aren't seeding for a tournament that's basically meant as qualifier. sSKS lost in these qualifiers, what makes people think he wouldn't lose as seeded player?
I think esports is pretty nice.

I highly doubt that this is about "the nature of SC2" or exposure of Tester's "trendy play". Probably just cheese or, as the ever-euphemistic Korean eSports media calls it, a "unique timing rush".


If I recall, the point of these first three GSL seasons is to decide who gets seeded in the later tournaments, reread the original announcements--something like the top 4 or top 8 of each season gets seeded in their 4th month league.

Your argument is terrible.
-Players use strategic play (note the lack of pejorative "cheese" appellation)
-I am not a fan of strategic play
---Therefore, GSL 'needs seeds'

This should be exciting, a new player rises. Its the second GSL ffs. Tester is by no means a demigod or someone whose absence should sadden anyone.

Flash used to get hated on for his eliminate-the-bonjwa strategic play before he was a star as well.

don't understand this "wtf why wasn't he seeded?" either

tester had to play a very good but not very well known player and lost; it wasn't like he lost vs clide, check, inca, fruit, top, ITR, maka, etc;
I mean, you couldn't possibly seed players like flint too...eventually players like tester will face players like flint, and tbh tester really must beat them if he wanna keep his status as #1 protoss...
