it's not bias it's always the same thing, people can't compute the fact that a foreigner can be a favorite, their brains are formatted and they can't do shit about it.

Who do you think will win vs. Who do you hope will win.
And then possibly a penis poll too, but Sub-Zero got knocked out of the tournament yesterday.

I clearly do think they are influenced by hope, which is why I made my comment. If they weren't, the results of the poll would be more realistic and there would be no need to make a comment about it.

Korean domination once again. Only reason Sase got through was because only one Korean was in his group. And Stephano always manage to be the only non-korean that worked his way to the championship bracket. There must be a Korean living inside Stephano's hair.

I appreciate the effort you put into this post, but are you really suggesting DPB, with his 13827 posts, comes onto the forums specifically to take the piss out of people? You're picking a fight with the wrong person here...

A korean Protoss will win for sure. I'd say Squirtle, but you can never count out MC (especially in foreign events) and PartinG is a monster, too.

no he is absolutely not, and the 13827 posts you're talking about have built up that foreigners can't win mentality he is talking about in his post

Ladies and Gentlemen, here is a fine specimen of douchus strawmanus ad hominus.
The douchus strawmanus ad hominus is a kind of human whose sole purpose in forums is not to refute others' points, but instead to make terrible jokes, deride others, and claim that they're morally superior by breaking down inaccurate representations of opposing arguments.
I'd keep going, but you're not really worth my time. I never said that the success of the foreigners in the GSL was meaningless. I even root for them over most Koreans, and note that their efforts are incredible. You're really not that funny. 1/5 for effort. Please, just go away.

Parting favourite over Stephano?Rofl. Only MC and Squirtle maybe can actualy compete with stephano right now. MC lost to stephano last mlg arena so it will be really close (untill now mc easily stomped stephano). Dunno about Squirtle's PvZ. I doubt any terran left in the tournament can beat stephano so in my books I see a Steph vs Squirtle final or MC vs Squirtle if Steph plays mc/squirtle in semifinals and loses.

don't know how brackets are, but violet is more than capable of beating stephano and already has..
parting can win too. I'm not doubting Stephano can win either, but to write them off is foolish.

May I remind you that when I answered to your PM your didn't bother to reply DPB ? That would have been a good occasion, but again I'm not worth your time. In fact, I'm sure you consider no one is unless they are of your opinion. What I wrote was light-hearted. I apologize if I hurt you because it wasn't my point.

I don't think Violet can face Stephano unless they both reach the finals, so it's likely we'll never see that rematch.
I would say that Squirtle is the only one here who is the favourite against Stephano, which I never thought I would say considering how many Koreans there are here.
