6,000 $ for Ziktomini, not bad for someone who hasn't had any big results yet.
Congrats to him! Nice to see some lesser known players outperforming the famous ones.

That's not what the WCS is about. heh, anyone who actually CAN think would know what Naniwa said was ridiculous. Unless you want to give Korea 30 spots and the rest of the world 2 for the WCS (which would be the 'fair' representation).
Look at the number of slots. Germany gets 4, Sweden gets 3, same as the UK. Now anyone who knows anything about SC2 pro scene has to understand, why that is weird and why especially Swedish players are angry about this.

Suck it! Maybe a stupid question, but why is that ? 6 queen is to take an early gasless thirds off about no units. They are forced to make some units to kill the rocks. Just means it's later, and not as greedy.
But if you're building units to knock off the rocks first then you're not really playing 6 queen, you're playing 4 queen into units into probably teching cuz it's gonna take fucking forever to kill the rocks anyway, like what Theogenis said.
Or you'll do a nasty timing cuz fuck it.

Just make a few zerglings to clear the rocks, push and do a non all in roach bane take 3rd and 4th behind it, and then laugh as terran tries to cross the map against mass upgrade slings.
The nightmares come to life again!

Well played Zikto. Read the situation pretty perfect in game 3. Not sure what happened in game 2, but he out-played Demu pretty hard in game 1.

Trouble with that arguement is U.K. should then get 0 spots germany 1 sweden 1 ukraine 1 USA 1 and korea all the other spots.

What?
No! That's not how TvZ works at all T_T. If you want to take that 3rd quickly then you need a lot of lings fast to take down the rocks. If you're going to build that many not-drones you might as well not do that and just really quickly saturate 2 bases instead. Better for your economy and still perfectly viable imo.
It's much better to play something viable over something that, for it to be viable requires you to do something really shonky and actually not that viable at all.
