Both have their merits, but Koreans definitely are out of their comfort zone when it comes to foreign events. Its not about giving 110% every single game, just 100.1% so you dont burn out by the third series. | ||

Edit: Just to clarify, I don't want to take anything away from DeMuslim and Ret. Those are great wins, anywhichway. | ||

Personally I love the new style but if "those oldskoolers" get upset on this then I agree with them on this. If you don't want to get spoiled for whatever reason then this should also have been hidden. | ||

Bling vs Polt was a little more interesting to me. Maybe because I saw bling lose like 5 times in a row vs stephano on stream the other day so I don't expect much. Congrats to all the awesome pro players!  | ||

Ret is good enough to be expected to take games off of Koreans on a somewhat regular basis, and MVP has been slumping. The same goes for Demuslim, and Nestea has been slumping even more. Bling, on the other hand, has pretty much never been a big name, always hovering in that good-but-not-great semi pro area. Polt won the friggin GSTL. Need I say more? agree with this 100: %we all know how good ret is; same goes with demuslim however, I have never even heard of bling until a day before the tournament, where I saw the thread about totalbiscuit sponsoring him. I'm like ok that's cool but idk who he is. next thing he takes down polt | ||

Wasn't too big of an upset for me. I gave Nestea and edge but not a giant one. Nestea has been really weak lately and I don't consider him one of the top zergs atm. Also demuslim seems very strong vs Z from what I've seen. JYP - DieStar: Don't know anything about DieStar and haven't seen JYP play a lot. Just don't have an opinion on it... BlinG - Polt: I consider Bling to be really fucking good. Still takes 2nd place imo, cause polt is a monster. Strelok - Lucky: nah. Strelok is T. Ret - Mvp: Huge upset. While mvp might not be in the best shape ever, I still thought he'd crush ret. My choice. | ||

Let's face it, all other foreigners in this poll bar maybe bling (who is vastly underrated imho) can be expected to take a bo3 off koreans, but diestar? no, not really. | ||

We've always envisioned our site as a place where we can have live, up to date news. We want fans to come to our site and see a player holding a trophy with an appropriate headline. This is the future of coverage and where we've always wanted to be as a coverage site. We began as a site during a time with no live streams and everyone read news to see who won last night. Even as technology advanced, the time zone difference made it impractical to watch live for all but the most dedicated fans. But with the SC2 boom, there are plenty of NA and EU events in appropriate time zones. Although many fans still use VODs, live viewing is now the norm. Professional StarCraft 2 resembles live, mainstream sports for most of its fans, and we believe it's finally time to provide fast, up to date coverage on events as they unfold. This is in the Teamliquid news post ..... This is the direction the site wants to go in. They warned everyone ahead of time that this was comming they prolly havent gotten all the bugs aka spoiler button should be removed eventually. | ||
