Well the nice thing about TSL for the players is the long time to prepare. Thorzain proved to be really good in that format. Two weeks ago he said his TvT was really bad but now he has motivation to practice it and he obviously has. BoX series with a lot of prep time where always prone to produce awesome games. | ||

Look for example at his games in The Gathering and the Rakaka tournament http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/The_Road_to_Korea Thorzain off-raced and stuff in the rakaka tournament, I don't think he's interested in going to Korea | ||

Lol I don't think thorzain or kas could take a game off of either Mvp or Bomber. Yes they do well in the TSL, but I don't think you realize how much better Mvp and Bomber are. The european terrans are most definitely the best in the foreign world, but korean terrans would probably wreck them. | ||

On the other hand Naniwa has been exceptionally consistent. Although I might not put ThorZain as an underdog against HasuObs, I'd say Naniwa would have to be the tournament favorite here. | ||

Seemed like Thorzain kept doing more small mistakes but guess he got the things that matters most right somehow. | ||
