Ah, the hype! I can feel it! Very nice read before it all begins! And the number thing at the end was awesome, love "fun facts".. ^__^ The 0 - Chairs available, sold out at the very bottom gave me nerdchills for some reason ;D Can't wait!

Corsica predicts : top 5- korean, top 10 - korean practice (people who have been to korea for at least 1 month)

On topic : I relly enjoyed graphics that you made, even more entertaining then whole read-up

Yeah, Foreign E-Sports are getting to the high life. By which I mean $100K+ prize pools.

Looks like it's going to be a really amazing watch, and thanks for the writeup heyoka.

Definitely hate the chairs issue by MLG. Never enough chair, ppl sitting all over the floor.

There's like.... Only Naniwa and Ret as top european players, I'm sad about that. There are only so much americans who can take bo3 off koreans :/ (want numbers ? HuK, IdrA, maybe Sheth, maybe SLush, but that's all on a consistent basis, barring flukes which are bound to happen....)

It will hopefully be the best tournament so far in SC2. Only thing that could be better would be to have more top EU players there.

Naniwa and Sad Zealot fighting!

I want more Idra gratuitous fanboyism, because that is how I feel at the moment. The guy is on an absolute tear!

That seeding system really turns me off but I gotta say, the player list is The insane, even though I would have loved to see more european players

Also I have some feedback about the "MLG: by the numbers" piece: I've been seeing this sort of design in a few articles now, and ok it looks cool and shiny and all, but I could definitely live without it. The whole format makes it kinda hard for me to properly read and aknowledge the information, which is a shame cause the numbers are very interesting indeed. I understand it's all about catching the eye and building the hype but a simple list would be preferred. Now it seems that the majority likes it so it's arguably a relatively insignificant matter.

Nonetheless it is a great article, I particularly enjoyed the five stories unrelated to the game.
