XiGua's game on Cloud Kingdom was absolutely disappointing. He had 2 of his mineral patches in the main triple mined while two others single mined. For a zerg, the effect absolutely snowballs, especially when he went for a speed first build.

didn't get to tune in but sounds good
i think china and taiwan get far too many seeds to asian WCS though
china - 10
taiwan - 9
korea - 10
singapore - 1
(30 players)

imo -> taiwan 2, china 4, singapore 1, korea 23
(30 players)

would be a better representation of skill =]

lol

This is about sponsors, not skill. TW and CN has a lot of sponsors. It's same reason UK has 3 spots and Germany 4 while Ukraine has 2 and Sweden has 3.

Besides you shouldn't underestimate chinese players.

i don't, i think china top4 is about as good as korea top 23. taking a look at TLPD (i know, not the best measure by any means, but roughly decent) there are names like losira, thestc, oz, bomber, gumiho and maru outside the top 23 and i'd favour most of them against chinese players most days (or at least what i've seen of their play)

WCS was never supposed to be about pure skill - you can watch almost any other tournament to see that setup. Apparently, WCS seeds are determined based proportional to the active player base in each country. This is a great setup for growing the scene outside of areas where professional SC2 is already well-established (such as in Korea) - eventually this will mean more, better trained, foreign players, and a bigger professional scene.

In the end that's good for SC2 in general. And hey, I'm sure a Korean will win this WCS in the end anyway.
