The seed part, last paragraph, you wrote: "but if we finds the form that he had in the summer", that can't be correct grammar, right?

Anyways besides that great read, keep on the good work

EDIT: After reading it all I strongly disagree about Rain, he has sick PvZ and I think he will reach at least 3rd place in the group, despite having all these crazy Zergs in his group.

Because he is the outlier. He is the player that shouldn't exist.

He doesn't get the benefits of being Korean because he doesn't play in the GSL/GSTL, but he also doesn't get the benefits of being a foreigner because of his nationality. I would love to see Violet win the whole thing.

SC2 tournament that need to go through qualification before the actual tournament are at total mess lately due to the heavy imbalance btwn races. Look at WCS and Blizzard Cup for the worst case senario. Even Iron Squid is experiencing the same problem. There are still Terran left in GSL are bcos they are the leftover of those GomTvT day. Hope Kespa Terran can change the imba with their metagame but it started with a bad sign with LiquidSea leaving.
Marine is Terran strongest unit but it might be Terran's biggest weakness. Bcos of Marine so OP, other Terran unit regrettably have to be weak..

Well, I guess this summs up the year accurately. Many zergs, some protosses, and Mvp.
Lost my interest in watching another zvzvzvzvzvpvzvzvzvzvpvzvz when the Hype died together with Mvp & Rain.

Sad to see Mvp go out that way, I hope he can regain his form by the time next GSL season rolls around. As for this group, I hope Seed can get off his own ass and start kicking others.
A man does what he must — in spite of personal consequences, in spite of obstacles and dangers, and pressures — and that is the basis of all human morality.

A little strange to talk about sniper winning the GSL that wasn't really a GSL, yet having no trouble saying Rain can win a GSL, OSL and WCS. The blizzard cup and WC GSL titles have so little weight behind them, imo. Sure, there are strong players, but there were strong players in the Arenas too. Without open competition it really isn't the same.
