Yea, just don't let him get his greater spire up and Genius should win.
It's still sad that he can take games off GSL finalists because they don't know his style, mechanics should matter more than strats in this MU :/.
I don't know if Genius is the prime example for a mechanical player. He has the worst 1A syndrom ever. Imo, Genius is more developed in mind games and scouting.
I'm not too surprised Naniwa is struggling against Z at the moment. With his GSL groups (Both Px2, Tx2) plus MVP in the next round, he has probably ignored his PvZ completely.

Thats what makes sc2 exciting. If a couple players dominated every single tournament it would be lame.

unlike the American tournament thry pour the best of the best korean only to saw their viewer getting disappointed
european is more sly than their american counterpart i hope Polt punishes them again for this
I don't know what you're talking about. Dreamhack is doing the right thing. There are 5 koreans, which is the most of any country except Sweden. IPL 4 was fucking boring because they just flew in a ton of koreans on their own cost. This Dreamhack is open to everyone, so the teams decide who they want to send there.
Also besides Polt there is Puma who always does good in foreign tournaments, Genius got to the GSL finals last season. Hyun and Monster also seem to be pretty strong.
Oh god you are one of those kids.
Yes, watching the best of the best play Starcraft is SOOOOOO boring.
I think he was more pointing towards the overload of Koreans that got to IPL 4. Of course you want to see the best starcraft possible but I'd much rather see Stephano vs MMA than some code B korean you've never heard of play some random NA player.

That's my thought as well. Hope he can shake this off and just focus on the main task.

Yeah, he's one of the worst players for this type of tournament.

Well Genius's strength is in his strats that he plans out ahead for each of his opponents. He's not really good at tournament formats like these.

There is an elite but the elite can win and lose to other elites. And Nerchio and Slivko are the elite in EU not really supricing
