I disagree with the tie for team of the year. EG has the most golds out of any foreigner team (and in my personal opinion) the better line up. But I respect your opionon. They do? Please line it up for me. EG - Axslav, Demuslim, Idra, Incontrol, Huk, Machine, Puma, StrifeCro, JYP Liquid - Tyler, TLO, Jinro, Haypro, Ret, Sheth, Hero, Zenio 2011 1st Places Liquid (3) Ret Assembly Winter, Battle.net European Invitational Hero - Dreamhack Winter EG (7) Idra - IPL 1, IEM China Huk - Dreamhack Summer, MLG Orlando Puma - NASL 1, 2, IEM Cologne
As much as I root for TL and dislike EG, I agree that EG is clearly the top foreign team.

Great writeup, great read.

The Drama section is lacking in ways the disclaimer regarding followers being "losers" does not compensate for. The severity of internet bullying in Korea and the rights of streamers are topics that should be dealt with appropriately, not blown off. That these cases led to VERY thorough investigation and pseudo-litigation are signs of how extreme these problems can be, not the absurdity of it all. Some of the drama is almost skewed to the point of misinformation. Please reconsider referencing these stories so glibly if they are not going to be detailed at all.
*Wasn't able to cover other stories due to lack of familiarity.

Apocalypse is only Quantic gaming player.
He is not IM player
IM Coach doesnt know who Apocalypse is. Maybe you guys got it wrong.

This is really awesome. It is definitely not worth arguing over some of the decisions imo, because regardless of who got the awards, this was an absolutely awesome recap of the year. I appreciate it. I look forward to another next year. :D

An additional error is the fact that Nestea won two GSL's this year, not three. Not that that changes IM's overall dominance because of Mvp, though it would be a little closer since there apparently other factors besides solo tournament runs.
A closer question might be, who carried his team more, MMA or DRG? DRG carried through a much longer GSTL season, and he was sometimes the entire team, whereas MMA was more often "only" the ace, but he also brought additional championships representing his team in normal tournaments. In terms of straight carrying, I'd probably have to go with DRG, by a very narrow margin.
But on the whole, it feels SlayerS' is neglected in some of the upper echelons of the foreign community (I'd rather listen to Tastosis cast, but I'd look to Wolf or Moletrap to talk about players that aren't from IM), perhaps out of fear of being seen as hopping on a bandwagon. For example, how many times must we hear, "mentored by SlayerSBoxer?" Coaches Cella and Ryu Won, as well as the players themselves, deserve a little more credit. And in the case of this article, Nestea and Apocalypse were both used to overhype IM, in a sense, and in the one case, it was to the detriment of SlayerS (not that that would swing the award in their favor--it shouldn't just because of that difference).
I understand that there's this feeling of "SlayerS gets all the attention." Even I was a little embarrassed MMA vs MVP won the best series award at the GSL award ceremonies, even though it was the result that pleased me most, but the team sure seems to get a share of negative attention, too. Since there was a small jab at Jessica mentioned in the drama section, perhaps it would be fair to remember SlayerS was the only team to withdraw from NASL in a timely manner, given that that drama was also mentioned in the same section?

Ummm jjajki not for break out performance but leenock is? We always knew leenock was a boss, he just paired with all the titans so he never got to show his full potential.. Jjakji on the other hand...
