The fact that Thorzain always reach the finals are proff that he is realy good...the fact that he never wins is proff that he is/and should be called the "final boss" of MSI! the final boss always loses in the end, but he is the final boss becuse he s the best =)

It's more a proof that he is the best amongst the foreigners, aka the best in the bottom of the bracket...

Adel will be in Korea, Feast is concentrating on his studies until the end of Spring, Stephano is banned of this cup because he didn't show up at MSI #8 without excuses and neX and Dragon don't have the level to compete with the players announced.
There are DieStar, LaLuSh and Tarson left, but I don't think they got the level to compete here too, at least right now.
So, yes, I guess there will not be any Millenium player in this Millenium hosted cup (even though there are still three players to be announced).

He is going to Korea for a few days, but not to compete or train. He will be the host of a TV documentary about e-sport, especially in Korea, for Game One, a French cable TV specialized in video games.

Yes. He didn't show so he is banned 1 cup like everyone else.
Stephano didn't show up to his own team's cup?
He did indeed. He was in USA at that time and, tired of waiting for his match (which was only one hour late if I remember well), went eating. The admin waited him for a while and tried by different ways to contact him, but failed to. So Stephano was disqualified, and Llewellis, the admin, said that for now on he will no longer invite Stephano because he is not enough responsible when there is not big money involved (Stephano had preferred a couple of time, for instance, to forfeit a match in online cups when he can't stream it, because he wins more money with streaming...)
As usual a sick line up, better than many offline tournaments, with top world players and rising stars. I'm eager to see what Lucifron will do, he is one of the few RTS geniuses of the scene, a win vs a korean would be amazing, though Thorzain won't give up his final spot easily I guess
Ouch that was very unfortunate for and by Grubby...it was a pretty good game though. Coming back after failed Dts is insanely hard for Toss. Well played by both nevertheless.
Too bad Grubby lost As much as i like zvp the late game is so stupid.. feels like the outcome of one battle where if toss gets a good archon toilet decides the game and if it fails zerg wins. Still great play by both gamers!
Great play from Thorzain, I think that win at Dreamhack really improved his confidence. Normally we wouldn't see him do that ballsy mass helion play against a zerg (last I remember seeing him doing it was against Ret some time ago, and Morrow in NASL S2 Ro8).
Good hold as well, Violet really wanted to do alot of damage with that ling bane comp.
I guess that map is as good as any to do an all-in (or semi with maruader helion, stim research was fairly late), and if it fails, who cares. He's still up by at least 1 game.
Violet is playing so badly. Going 2 base spire on the map everyone expects 2 base spire on, of course he's going to die to a timing that counters 2 base spire.
