Quality of games were great on the first day, quality of the tournament itself via english stream was below Blizzard standards.
Second day games imo were not enjoyeble to watch. The quality of the stream was alot better though.

IdrA stopped Rain's dizzying multi-prong harass with remarkable efficiency, taking a huge lead. He then did almost everything he could to blow his advantage, but managed to win despite himself.
Hahaha, nice write up !

What tier 1 koreans you have in mind?
DRG, Leenock, BBoong, Coca didnt qualify from korean qualifier

Life, Zenio, Nestea, Symbol, Hyun didnt even qualify for the korean qualifier mentioned above.

So yeah..

Some things never change.

Overall a good tournament, but I really hope that the meta game is in a better place by the time the next one rolls around .
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)

heavyweight foreigners like sen nerchio scarlett and stephano that are doing very well lately were probably scouted throroughly compared to the rest... this explains the death of them by koreans

idra and the rest did very well, credit to them... but i feel they were not prepared for and the koreans didn't know what to expect...

i feel this is part of the issue why foreigners can't consistently bash koreans because once their styles are studied and analyzed, it is much harder

i had creator to take it all but i knew it would be tough getting through rain... gratz to parting... looks like the right protosses are in code s

Probably because we all kind of knew what was going to happen... Also PvP isn't really the most entertaining thing to watch.

He would have run into Rain at some point. Also, it's WCS. All of your opponents are going to be hard =P It's impressive to get to the top 16 on its own. Idra did great!

That's exactly what I was thinking. I wonder if it's disheartening for Blizzard to have a monotonous tournament because the game they made that the tournament is entirely based around is pretty abysmally done (not whining about balance, whining about how dull the games are now).
The universe created an audience for itself.

Awesome sen made top four. Good to see him doing well. Unfortunately the day9 curse persists!

100,000 dollars for Parting. Jeebus that is a lot of money. Parting has had it coming for a long time now though, good for him.

Exactly, some might forget that this wasn't an invite global finals it has gone through tons of qualifiers including the best Korean Zerg's.
