Just out of interest, what kind of system do you think would be more fair?


What I find really frustrating about the WCS is that from my perspective, they almost have it right. I think they just need to make some minor changes to the number of seeds and size of tournaments for some national/continental tournaments.

For example:

1. No direct seeds into the world championship from nationals.

2. Tweaking of the size of some national tournaments. For example, Ukraine, Sweden, Combined Europe tournaments need at least 1 more seed into the European Continentals. UK, Germany, and France should have one less seed. Mexico has too many seeds into the NA Continental, China and Taiwan have way too many seeds into the Asian Continental, while Korea should have way more.

3. The relative size of the Continental Championships should be tweaked, as in the South American and North American tournaments are too big (too many players, too many seeds into the World Championships). I think if S. America was folded into the NA tournament to make one Combined Americas Continentals, that would be about right.

Oceania Continental tournament is superfluous, should've been folded into the Asian or European Continentals. Asian Continental is the most wonky, because to even say "Asian Continental" is basically saying "Korean National (plus Sen and a couple of Chinese players)". I think of all the Continental Championships, the European one looks the most right, mostly due to the fact that out of all the continents Europe is the only one that has a good spread of top tier players in many different countries.

Someone said earlier that if the idea of Nationals and Continentals were to be removed, a 128 player true World Championship tournament would be 99% Korean players. I don't think that's true. Stack up the skill level and playerbase of South Korea against all the other countries combined, while not 50/50, I would say is closer to 60/40. Through the use of Nationals and Continental tournaments, if Blizzard could organize a World Championships tournament that looks something like 50/50 Koreans/Foreigners, I think that would be right. As it is now, it looks like Blizzard has set it up that the World Championships will be closer to 2/3 Foreigner, 1/3 Koreans.

Happy played the right way against someone who has no anti drop defense (blink stalkers, HTs inside bases, etc...). Happy's execution was flawless though, losing almost no unit in most of the drops. Also I don't understand Roll unit compo. Colossus, chargelots and DTs ?? Where is the anti-air ? Even the few sentries he had were useless, he almost couldn't make any good FF. The level difference between him and Happy on this game looked really huge.
