My bet is on White-Ra seeing as how he allways gets so damn high on the normal ladder. On a more nationalistic note I'd like to see Haypro go top 5 ladder stage and will be rooting for him in the playoffs aswell. | ||

Kolll is going to qualify, no doubt, but I don't see him at #1. Edit: Aren't JF and Draco not on the poll because they're already seeded? I guess they might play the ladder anyway, but... | ||

Additionally we didnt talk about skill / success in this poll but mostly about how much u play.. But actually I read the poll wrong for the first time, too. I wasnt paying attention and thought its about the winner of TSL not the ladder#1. But i guess Idra,ret,kolll in no particular order are still the 3 most likely to finish #1. Idra and ret play very much and kolll normaly as well. Have to give MaNa good chances, too... | ||

Idra plays terran so his games take a longer time in general, especially TvP on maps like heartbreak/outsider/desti where the only way to win is through a long straight up game | ||

Koll said that he only plays about 4 hours a day. I'm sure that time will go up a bit during the ladder but someone like Idra who has the unlimited (more or less) amount of time (and skill) to play will take it. | ||

Even though he is not currently a "top foreigner", I think Draco usually scores high on ladders for money tournaments too, so I am surprised not to see his name, but that's all right. He's probably seeded and doesn't need to ladder, to answer my own question. | ||

Idra has been winning a lot of tournaments lately, but that doesn't mean that he's invincible. not even in a best of 2659. I don't care who wins the ladder, but I hope that it'll be close! Same for the rest of the TSL. | ||
