The number of spots for each country are based on the amount of spots the sponsors want to give to that country. But really its been discussed to death at pretty much every WCS tournament.
Lowely is looking pretty good.

I meant it more in the sense that Germany should have 2-3 spots, Sweden should have at least 4, UK should have 1-2, ect. Obviously the numbers make no sense, but I understand, it's the sponsors, and it sucks but we talk about it all the time. Just expressing a little frustration.

Everytime I hear a Russian accent it's like they're ready to just kill someone. Like Drago's "I must break you". Pretty bad ass lol

Correct regarding the UK. Very wrong regarding the Ukraine. The Ukraine is one of the best two eu countries, along with Sweden. And if there was a team match between the two countries it could be very close.

There was an interview on TL with some blizzard guy about this issue. Basicly he said that number of spots is determined by the playerbase of the country. So Germany has more players than for example Sweden so Germany gets more spots.

do they take into account the size of the country ?

why didn't Nightend make 100 cannons and 50 gates?
|
Nightend had 15k minerals, 3k gas, while the zerg was at about 4-5k minerals.
Why didn't he make like 30 gateways, push, then remax then push again, rince & repeat
|
This is why no protoss ever wants to play a standard PvZ lategame. you cannot beat spine spore queen corrupter infestor broodlord. there is no way to even trade with half the effeciency of the zerg.

because he wouldve killed 20 supply and lost 100.

ahmagad nightend. Why not throw down four stargates or warp in his main?
You simply cannot engage a spine crawler wall with broodlords and infestors no matter what. You have to mix in carriers or void rays or abuse his lack of mobility and starve him out of the game. That's simply been the only way to do it for a long time.
|
Carriers, why no carriers Nightend? It's awesome vs endgame Z, HTs+carriers :[
SlayerSCrank used it nicely in his games..
Well played between Bigs&Nightend though!

Cannons are useless against broodlords, gateway units are useless against infestor/broodlord/spine.
You need to either try and not engage and find the zerg out of position, or try and mass air. Spine/spore/infestor/broodlord is the ultimate composition in the game and the exact thing that the Tempest is meant to counter.

finally a really entertaining game
