Now let's take a look at this here TSL3. Korean SC1 players, European and NA SC1 players, and European WC3 players all entered. All that remains are four European WC3 players. Honestly, I think their macro has caught up, and perhaps their micro and creativity is starting to shine through.
I'm not saying they're dominant, just that they've truly arrived and are here to stay. Thoughts? Foreign WC3 actually had a proper scene with many tournaments, which means that there were a lot more WC3 progamers than Starcraft progamers. More players putting more time into the game works wonders on improving skill which is the skill you see translating over to SC2 now.

I wish someday that starcraft 2 becomes big enough that this tournament is played on lan (lol LAN, the least likely part of this dream) They're playing on the American servers so doesn't that mean there should be more American players? NA to Europe has been proven to be relatively better than NA to Korea. Not a valid argument. All Americans has been eliminated by Europeans or Americans. For some reason higher seeds are given an unfair in-game advantage by being able to pick server in the deciding game (drawing lots would've been fair). This has meant Americans has had server advantage in 3 out off 5 matches. Further more: 7 out off 8 qualifiers has been won by players playing from the Europe despite half of them being played on the American server. I was implying the difficulty for the players on the Korean server to play cross realm. Ok, fine then.

Hmm Boxer losing...probably one of the worst things to happen to TSL.

What's up with the EU vs NA / KR? This is pathetic guys. As an european I do not endorse this behavior.

TSL 3: the tournament that signaled the end of the old order? Possibly but the Chinese will be coming soon. I hope so. Wanna see Sky,infi,ted in action. Oh shit ...

Hasu losing battles/expos he shouldn't lose, then BoxeR being clueless as to how to press his advantages. BoxeR overstimming and microing incorrectly against Collossi (splitting instead of kiting)... The BoxeR we saw beat Sen did not show up today. If Hasu makes it to the finals, the winner of Kas/Thorzaine is going to crush him like a bug.

Some awesome games, i was hoping Cruncher would win but am pretty sure he still proved to be one of the best protoss players in the world, all the games naniwa won were epically close. Again?I only saw this happening in online tournaments, could you (or anyone) PLEASE point out a non-cross server tournament won by europeans?

Idk what's more annoying. People still comparing WC3 to BW or the "omg eruos r besty"

TSL 3: the tournament that signaled the end of the old order? If you want to talk about "the end of the old order," please wait until the old order ends.
Any european that thinks they are better should fly to GSL and make 50,000 a month, but they won't, because they know it's not as simple as one tourney.

Yeah like cruncher would be rolled over as well . Or like HuK rolled over Hasu I don't think anybody was expecting that, really. HuK was probably considered a slight favourite, but everybody had already seen too much of his PvP to be confident. Hasu had a pretty strong reputation in PvP coming in as well, so I don't think many people were too surprised about the outcome. I was expecting a 2-1 in either direction, personally.
