OP u should change the title to [WCS Asia] Meet the Protoss.

protoss dominating wcs asia as well as wcs south korea.
why no1 talking about the non-existent terran representation on the tornument (4 terran, 15 protss, 13 zerg).
and the non existent terran representation on wcs world (4 terran, 14 protoss, 14 zerg).

this 1 sided results make u wonder how balanced really is this game regarding the terran race.

It's pvp and HerO will be in contention of that tiny little thing... After his excelent series vs Seed I think that tiny little thing has changed slightly

Please stop calling so goddamn many different players pracc bonjwa's and similar bullshit. Koreans like to talk highly of their pracc partners, especially those from their own team. I can accept that maybe 2-4 "pracc bonjwa's" exist out there, but the term has been thrown around ever since SC2 came out. They would have made it further if they truly were that good.

Edit:
"Alas, Poor HerO. If this were a tournament with reasonable racial balance, we'd say he was one of the contenders to win it all"
Also Hero would most certainly not be a championship contender when taking part in a tournament with opponents of this caliber:
- Creator: Winner of TSL4.
- Seed: Winner of GSL3.
- Rain: OSL finalist.
- Squirtle: Runner-up of GSL2 & IPL4.

That is 4 players who has achieved more than Hero in 2012, with Parting's results being on par with Hero's. In a fantasy world where these players did not play protoss, Hero still would not be a true contender.

I think that was all the bile I had. Well-written and interesting article outside of those small issues :-),


It's pvp anything can happen, HerO beat squirtle in gsl and has accomplished less this year, in terms of earnings HerO is 2nd with MC being 1st does that mean HerO is better than all of thhem? no no it doesn't, it sounds like you just want to shit on HerO because u mad.


I didn't want to shit on Hero just to shit on him or be mad (or whatevs). I just didn't like how it was phrased as if he was the big contender if not for PvP ruining his chances*. As I wrote he is in with champions from multiple different tournaments and overall in 2012 Hero has 'only' shown consistently good play, but not reaching the championship winning levels, as opposed to some of the other participants in WCS.

* Notice it was not my words saying that PvP left him chanceless! It could be in his favor, except if Squirtle decides to become a god PvP again.

It's because in 2011 we got fed up with terran winning everything and overall dominating, especially in Korea. Furthermore, basing your balance in WCS alone is statistically weak, especially considering how the terran-killing patch was rolled out shortly before / during WCS national quals. --> making established terran strategies weak against zerg and losing for it. TvZ has improved markedly since that time.

But... well, Rain, lol.

Well, everyone predicted that Koreans would dominate.

10 Koreans invited

9/10 Koreans in the Top 10

1 Korean eliminated by Sen + another Korean

It's pretty safe to say that StarCraft 2 in Asia will revolve around Korea for a long time.

Why does everybody forget Happy, it should be: You don't beat Rain if you're not an IM terran!

Remembering Happy? I have a suspicion more people tlpd'ed the Empire Terran rather than remember the round of 32 match. You might be a bit of a dreamer. tt.
