Great preview in my opinion. Went to Krefeld yesterday and had a lot of fun in the pub with other barcrafters. Collected some signatures on my StarCraft II copy and had some cool time overall. Can't wait for HSC V where I'll stay all the time.

When will TL articles stop hyping up foreigners vs koreans? To say that MC, MKP et al are 'out-skilled' in this lineup is pretty ridiculous, and the ro8 lineup is only surprising because there are 2 foreigners instead of 1. Foreign pride is great so long as it doesn't fly in the face of evidence, which it predominantly does.

The casts itself were great but the lag/pauses/freezes made it unwatchable for a long period of time unfortunately.

Dont blame the cup for your bad internet connection. Days 1-3 were almost lagless for me.

"The Koreans are outnumbered, and quite possibly 'out-skilled.'"

Everytime I look back on these previews, I always have a little giggle :D.

Love the casting, my favorite tournament! But the Korean skill gap still seems quite evident.

I think there should be a rule that nobody should ever publicly underestimate the Koreans like this ever again it just jinxes everything and the Korean's dominate just to make you look silly.

I remember SotG predicting a Korean wouldn't make top 3 at a tournament. (I think dreamhack winter? I forget) and then Koreans dominated that to.
