A powerful Z lineup! Good chance for the Swarm to take a third straight GSL. | ||

He won the TSL clan tournament (I know it's arguably not super-competitive) and is considered one of the best toss players in the world by his peers, which must mean something. Any protoss could have lost with this map pool, and many did. I agree he will have to start producing results to keep his mantle, though. He won playing Protoss up until the finals and then switched to Terran and Won | ||

He was seriously hyped by Artosis but at the same time there were no other known BW players playing in the GSL so his hype was justified. However I have no clue why everyone still thinks he's a super player since better BW players emerged. Happy to see JulyZerg advance although I'm not expecting anything from him, just like NaDa and Boxer he couldn't keep up with the skill required in BW and was forgotten during the last could of years. I'm wondering when a decent, ACTIVE BW player will turn over to GSL. MVP was one but he was pretty low tier as well. I hate to say this, but if it had been only 12 Zs qualifying instead of Ps, and FruitDealer + NesTea had gotten eliminated, the collective zerg QQ led by Mr. Idrajit himself would have caused a massive internet flood, and led to massive spam on Blizzard forums everywhere else by people saying how zerg is UP. Also is it a coincidence that NONE of the foreign protoss players qualified? But hey its just protoss. We as a race collectively lack skill. Right? Right? Protoss doesnt need heroes. We just need more top tier whiners (like IdrA) who can keep crying to Blizzard and get the buffs that are required to play competitively at top level. Not people like NEXGenius who say "I will show that Protoss is the strongest race" and then proceed to get wiped all over the floor by ITR. And FYI NesTea, who won GSL2 was an awful AWFUL BW player (relative to top tier standards, and on the same level as Tester). So stop saying this useless shit like "OH NOES TESTER LACKS SKILL". SC1 skills do transfer over, but the mechanical ceiling required in SC2 is not as huge. | ||

Freakin excited that there's so many foreigners though. Also, I'm assuming since I don't see tasteless on there anymore he didn't make it either? | ||

More foreigners means more vods to watch for me. More us v them matches which is always pretty awesome. I think it was predicted a couple of months ago that protoss will have a hard time as the game gets older. I think its the lack of innovation in the builds is to be blamed. I mean, come on, most toss just use 4gate pushes or 2gate robo builds or some type of cannon rush or void ray cheese. We need to see something different. I don't know why they have ahard time transitioning to higher tech. | ||
