The better player absolutely won there. If we're allowed to say that MajOr advanced because of Hyun's bad play, then we can also say that Keen advanced because of Vortix's bad play. OK? I mean if KeeN won because VortiX played worse than him, it also means that he played better than VortiX. And if we want to talk about their results outside of that series KeeN is a far more accomplished player.

Hoping for Major to smash Recco. Also hoping to see some awesome mech TvZ since we really don't see it enough.

Ah cheers for the guys who cleared that up. I gather EU-NA is pretty playable so Vortix's lack of flanking in that game is more of a mystery for me.
Anyway, hopefully Major can stomp JRecco here. I wish I got to see Major play a bit more, guy's pretty damn good, and JRecco has a crushingly boring style

19-23 > 16-4 75% > 72%
3% more because 3 more wins. Duh.

It fucks the hell out of you? How did the hell get in there in the first place? And how exactly is it being fucked out?

Don't try to make sense of it.
I suggest those who have the attitude of " foreigners are out, boring " find some good Korean players to support so you don't have to deal with this.

Stephano didn't even manage to qualify. Didn't even try you mean, attending two qualifier and forfeiting in one of them ... sure, it's just the most prestigous foreign tournament whatsoever. Why would he care? Since when is it the most prestigious foreign tournament ? Did I miss something ? And stop beeing lazy, just check the qualifier and you'll see. Pointless discussion anyway since he's the best foreigner why wouldn't he be able to qualify ? It´s just a silly train of thought to argue: oh Stephano woulda this, Shephano coulda that. Well actually how can you tell? I'm going to start going "Inca could have won here, inca could have done that" whenever a protoss screws up I wonder how that would go down.

It's not very far to the 4th base MajOr, just use your little rump. You can make it if you try with a hop, skip, and jump.

Here is the math : 19-23=-4. then let's just divide 1 by "-4" and therefore we get 1-1/4=3/4 = 75%

I wish I got to see Major play a bit more, guy's pretty damn good, and JRecco has a crushingly boring style It's not only the flanking, but also lings blocking the pathing for ultras, infestors leading the charge of an a-move army and banelings hitting tanks. The micro was horrible, he must have been nervous as hell, because he can play a lot better than that I think.

As always, Major will be a true badass if he plays mech in all of the games.

It's a narrative that brings some drama and extra excitement to what could be just another tournament. Right now, it's just another tournament - except for Major. Really, I don't think JohnnyRecco can go up against any of these Korean terrans and win. So I'm cheering the fuck out of Major right now. Sure, being "just another tournament" still makes it good, but I want something extra from my TSL, and Major representing the entire foreigner community would be it 
That is a very fair attitude.
It is not as if TSL has to be a special tournament for everyone. And there are tons of different reasons to enjoy different ones. It is a special tournament for me, but I mean, unlike some people in live report threads I do not expect that everything should be catered to me and that I have a divine right to complain about everything I do not like or care for in the world. Nor that I should feel personally slighted by things not going my way and that if that happens, the first thing I should do is to write about how I will no longer be supporting, watching or enjoying anything pertaining to a tournament ever again in the history of ever.

I want Recco to do well as he's Scottish (I'm English), but I can't say no to mech TvZ <333
