Winter is coming America...
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Finally a big North American tournament with a North American player pool. It will be cool to see who is the best.

As far as I know. I don't think mystik played this game for many months now. Still amazing that he and vibe did so well in US WCS playing D3 exclusively the month before the tournament.
Oracle comes in, Scvs go down, never a miscommunication.

Will be a great show to be sure!
I hope that Major seizes the American Dream by winning. That'd make my day for sure.
Seeing Scarlett win would be awesome as well.

Also, I really hope WCS gets better exposure than the NA Nationals did. It was horrendously uninspiring. "And Vibe is our champion!" Felt like no one gave a fuck. -_-

I was gonna write a whole article with that title assigning a role to each player (Idra would've been Jaime, Scarlett Brianne, HuK Ned Stark etc). but plans changed suddenly for the worse this past weekend. Glad you enjoyed that though.

Oh man, it doesn't matter who makes it to worlds. Because whoever it is, will get murdered lol, anyone who thinks the Americas can field players equivalent to europe/korea and the rest of Asia are delusional, american, or high.

EDIT: I'm gonna make a statement here, going to root for **gasp** Idra. Now, I love hating on idra, it's one of my favourite pastimes and I've been doing it for a long ass time, I have many a post about him being the most irrelevant foreigner on a korean team back in BW when he was still terran. But the Americas need a dark hero, a long shot, a desperate hope. I see Idra as the old grizzled washed up prize fighter, giving it one last desperate go, queue up the montage music.

At the very least, when the best players the Americas can field against the rest of the world inevitably get crushed, seeing Idra a the top of the heap will at least make some interesting rage posts, hehe.

I laughed at Sheth's second to last answer... Had a "I don't care what the question was, I'm going to plug myself instead!" aspect to it. Then I read the last answer and realized they were just mixed up, which is a lot more boring.

TT1 better than Huk - Axslav??? Eventhough Huks play can be sometimes a little bit wacky and his decisions are not top notch maybe - what he has accomplished has to stand for something! TT1 will probably never be able to achieve even half of Huks acomplishments up to date!
I really hope Huk will show up in good form make your prediction wrong!


It's not about total accomplishments, otherwise Boxer would still be dominating the scene. Huk was awesome but he's been relatively bad since he joined EG and his results have been getting worse instead of better. When predicting favourites, "what have you done for me lately" is an overwhelming majority of the general thought process, as it should be.

A zerg is going to win that is for sure, I could be wrong but I don't think any of the Protoss/Terran from NA are anywhere near their zerg Buddies.

Major?

This guy is not only the best mexican but the best AMERICAN without any doubt. He`s the only "american" player who qualified in the TSL 4, no one else did. Huk, Sheth and others all did awful job there. Also Major beat Hyun, who is even better than any american/canadian zerg.

Yeah, I feel he's the only American that can stand up to EU/KR players with Scarlett. Major or Scarlett to win it all.
