Nah I leave it there. When people talk about code b being tough its in a completely different context. The point here is that Killer isn't in code s, and is barely code a skill level worthy. | ||

Koreans own, the only question is who is going to own the most. About every top foreigner I know at least something and can tell a few things about his personality etc., about the Koreans I dont know anything so why would I care about who becomes the new World Champion. Random Korean A, B or C?! Sorry =/ You learned about the foreigners from watching them, just do the same with the koreans. I know a lot about all the koreans here and really the entire scene and it is loaded with interesting personalities. | ||

Random Korean A, B or C?! Sorry =/ Kinda know what you feel, I find those generic robots like Puma boring to watch too. But MC, Violet and MMA have a lot of charisma imo. And then there's Feast the beast still left. So the tournament is still exciting for me. Really disappointed in Hasu's games though. I watch him a lot and those games really were the worst I've seen him since months. Still a good tournament for him overall. | ||

Random Korean A, B or C?! Sorry =/ I think that the best players should be rewarded and the Koreans are definetly better. However, i don't like the current trending of having foreign teams recruting so many korean players. That will not help develop the foreign talent, on the contrary, it will diminish the foreign based professional pool of players and make Korean even more dominaiting. These days, the only real unknown variable of the larger tournaments is which Korean will be the victor, and that's kind of sad. There's less excitment, less tension, less interest, less viewers... | ||

Exactly. I have watched every gsl tournament not missing a single night ever. I almost always read every korean post interview. I watch the group nominations, etc. They are the best players, and they have good personalities on most of them, no excuse to not pay attention to the superior scene. | ||

But the koreans, i know so much more about them that its much more exciting. Just follow and watch the koreans whenever you can and u will know them better just like the you do with the foreigners | ||

Group stage ofcourse this is needed but bracket play? I question why such an early start is needed when they could easily get more viewers with an afternoon timeslot. LoL is getting 113960 viewers, i dont think they have to worry about moving the time slot to please some SC2 nerds. | ||

Why do they have to play this tournament at Cebit, when noones gonna watch them online and there's little to none live audience. Would've been so much cooler if they did this in a smaller venue with only SC2 fans there and on friday/saturday/sunday so everyone could follow it. | ||
