I guess it would be enough for LG to have Nestea and Losira and maybe some other IM players there. I really don't get the point of taking the most successful SC2 player of all time out of the most prestigous competition of the year for some sponsor PR. | ||

Hero obviously doesn't like to build the least micro intensive and most retarded unit in the game, gave his everything to make it work, and lost. IMO creator winning just showed how retarded pvp truly is. You know, in a showmatch a few months ago it was Creator who used the aggressive blink-obs style to take apart HerO 3-0... I know it sucks watching one of your favorite players losing, but please, if it were HerO who were going robo and winning, you wouldn't be complaining for Creator. | ||

I am not sure whether the Korean gamers take WCS as seriously as other countries. I mean, of course, they would still like to win and it is important. It might be more prestigious in other countries because it is their defacto national championship. But you already have OSL and GSL in Korea. It is not just MC, MVP. Players like Taeja also skipped the qualifiers for MLG Arena. Of course, being in the loser's bracket has something to do with it as well. In terms of other sports, I think it is like NBA vs Olympics. For the others countries, they all view the Olympics the ultimate goal. For the US, of course they would like to win as well, but if you ask the players, they will probably tell you the NBA was more important. | ||

It's probably more prestigious, but it's still the qualifier for a qualifier stage. Also alot less money for much more effort. | ||
