I think a foreigner will win WCS EU.

A Korean will win WCS NA.

MC and MMA are both highly beatable koreans. Scarlett has the potential to be a korean killer, but I dont know if she can take out tajea or oz. and the dongs zvz is pretty tough.

TaeJa or Polt will win NA, if this doesnt happen i will be completely shocked
Naniwa is the only foriegner that I think could win EU (actually I think he will win) so basically it depends on Naniwa imo

EU has a good shot with a lot of PvPs of Koreans vs foreigners. All what's needed is for MMA to lose to someone. To MC for example. Still I will bet on Korean winning EU

Nani has shown that MMA doesn't understand that taking full damage from storms is optional; i think that Europe will hold unless duckdeok has godlike pvp. MC is lucky to still be in the tournament honestly.

Aw come on, Jim had to sit there and watch that terrible defense from Alicia two games in a row. That's just good decision making and learning

I think scarlett or one of the chinese, especially jim, could take it, and polt is now american cause i want him to be, and he could totally win.

There are decent chances. I'd say 40/40 (for at least one of the two events to be won by a foreigner).

Maybe Grubby can make a good run through he or Naniwa have the best shot in Europe. As far as WCS AM, I don't see a foreigner winning it.

Considering that there is only one foreigner out of four in WCS Europe and only two foreigners out of six in WCS America, I'm 99.9% certain that a foreigner won't win either tournament.

Once Naniwa lost, no. MC will win EU and Jaedong will win NA.

Never, because it was never Blizzard's intention to be that way.

What happens if Artosis votes for "No"?

Does it suddenly go to 100% "Yes"?

I'm not sure how strong the curse is, the only time I have seen it in action is with single players, not a whole nationality.

Artosis needs to vote
