The 'they are all just bad' line only goes so far and wouldn't quite work if only 3 qualified. Too bad koreans are simply better, and ower there terrans do well, Kind of destroys the argument, You could argue that terrans have a harder time playing at top lvl and you therefor need top korean apm and multitasking though, while the slow engame zerg army doesnt require that much. Game is played in other places than Korea and blizzards work needs to reflect that. But since 4 terrans are confirmed now we can go back to 'had it coming' and 'Taeja'. Business as usual.

Lucifron is terrifyingly talented, wasn't he the same in WC3? Being very competitive while studying simultaneously? Ye iirc he won a tournament beating lyn in the finals I think it was a blizzcon.

Really liking the tournament I hope they skip the direct seeds if they do this next year again tho!

Hush, don't let the story get destroyed by your truth.

TLPD has 16 games recorded, 10 Grubby - Ret 6 This doesn't seem to include WCS though (which grubby won)

Yes thank god koreans save us all terran players :-) It's kind of sad for the foreign tournaments though since imo PvZ and PvP are really boring and ZvZ is sometimes entertaining..

I turn into Dreamhack for the music!

If Socke goes to the ro8 then by no means there will be a 5th terran at WCS finals, as he has to beat EmpireHappy to do this. So our only chance for a 5th terran is that Happy beats Socke and then one of the zergs (Lowely, Sortof or Stephano) to make it to ro6.
I don't see that coming, we'll have to do with 4 terrans at WCS finals most likely... Fenix, Illusion, Major and Lucifron... fishes in a barrel TBH.
