I think MLG has this. MLG also includes the GSL Koreans. Plus, why are some of you putting the Kespa players on such a high pedestal? Sure their roster is pure Koreans, but their SC2 talent pool, as seen so far, seems to have a steep drop off point (skill wise) past perhaps 8 players.

There certainly is some amazing talent on the Kespa roster. Amazing up and coming talent and even some that have proven they can hang with the GSL Koreans. But they are a handful. Flash, Fantasy, rOro, herO, Rain. Maybe a couple others, but my memory doesnt recall them. But that really is the cream of the crop that we have seen. To assume they are all on that level is a bit ridiculous.

I think, at least in this tourney, MLG has this one no problem. Talent pool (in regards to current sc2 skill level) doesnt seem deep enough in the Kespa roster. For now.

Kespa's gonna crush this. Surprised that a full half the community hasn't realised that the kespa players have already caught up and aren't slowing down.

well if they have caught up and are on par now wouldn't it make sense that the poll is 50/50 :o

Most of the MLG players are from NA. Therefore, KeSPA wins.

MLG Code S players: MC, Naniwa. MLG Korean Zergs: none. I think anyone who voted MLG either just has tos of confidence in MC/Stephano/Naniwa, or has just not looked at the roster of players. It's like 6 Koreans for MLG vs 24 Koreans for Kespa, one of which is Rain, who won the group of death in GSL Ro16 (DRG, TaeJa, Polt) to make Ro8. This is stupidly lopsided IMO. But if it's just a question of what side the 1st place winner will be from, it's a bit more even, as I can see MC just winning the whole thing, but still . . . I'd take the side with 24 Koreans over the side with0 Korean Zergs, 2 Korean Terrans, MC, and a few B-list Korean Tosses.
