By that logic, dignitas isent a foreign team since they have select on it. Violet is living in texas, so his training oppotunities are the same as the foreigners. Not to mention Kas, Beastyqt and happy are all really strong in the european scene.

I think this should be a close series tho!

By that logic TL is also a Korean team, with twice as many Koreans as Empire. :p

I'd just say TL and Empire are both not complete foreign teams. And you cant really say Dignitas isnt a foreign team, because Select has no Code S background, while Violet has. And he is from Korea and from a korean team.

Select does have a Code A background. But let's not wade into this murky area of what constitutes a "foreigner" and "Korean".

On a completely different note, Empire can definitely win here. Beastyqt, Violet and Kas have all shown that they can take down Korean players. They beat col-MVP very convincingly, and forced Prime to an ace match. I definitely think they have the potential to beat NSHoseo, but they need to watch out for players like Jjakji and San.

Gonna be a close match. Yesterday I predicted the correct winner, but this one seems less likely to go in the direction I want.

That said... Empire is REALLY fucking strong these days with Everyone stepping up at different times.

A lot of it depends on if Jjakji plays or not, he had GSL last night so he might not have had time for this.

That said, the protoss lineup of NSH is pretty damn strong.

I guess we'll see, I predict 5-4 NSH, but with only two different empire players winning 2 games each.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I actually see Empire take this. NSHS' results have not been very promising lately, especially in team leagues. Of course Empire is lacking a very top tier player, but jjakji's impact may be limited due to cross server play, and any other player of the NSHS roster looks very beatable to me. If Empire catch a good day and play their best, they should take this!
