They probably referred to best in the world outside of korea. It's kinda impossible to refer to best zerg without even considering DRG. | ||

He said top Europeans, and then he said that he was talking about players like Nerchio and Stephano who can compete with the best in the world. | ||

Yeah, they were talking about best foreign zerg, they very clearly stated that. Unfortunately I think it takes more than two decent games against supernova to throw these statements around. | ||

He would have been at the last IEM but had about two days of flying and still couldn't get to Kiev due to two seperate visa issues, the first occured when he was already in europe and he had to go all the way home to fix it. | ||

We will be overhauling the mappool for the World Championship. For this tournament we held the qualifiers with this mappol and we don't just change the mappool between qualifiers and the actual event. What we did do (compared to IEM Kiev) is change Antiga to the current GSL version (no gold, no close spawn) and change Metalopolis to no longer have a gold expansion. All players I talked to were okay with gold expansions on The Shattered Temple (even Zerg players). I understand that our mappool isn't ideal but the players here are actually okay with it. Please don't make it a bigger deal than it actually is and enjoy the games instead.  | ||
