Very happy with how this turned out. I enjoyed watching it. Feel bad that MisS wasn't able to make it closer, because I know she is capable. Happy that Aphrodite won though Both great players!

Aphrodite is KR GM lol. Around rank 100. She also peaked top16 on NA GM a few seasons ago.
The casters said more than once that Aphrodite is top Masters, not GM.
On the Russian stream the caster checked the account that aphrodite was playing on (it was aphrodite in korean, can't type korean on ipad) was gm. Also if you check sc2 gears you find out that the account used to be named TopGirl, which is the account she streamed with on KR ladder a while ago when she used to stream. Earlier this year she was rank 8-15 ish masters but after changing her acc name almost nobody bothered to check so she went into gm without notice. And she also streamed NA GM back in season 5 or so and made a big deal about top 16 on facebook. So yeah, GM.

It's actually very easy to type Korean on your iPad, so idk what you're talking about there.....
But yeah, Aphrodite is obviously a GM player. There isn't any arguing it. I'm pretty confident MisS would easily be GM in NA, as many of the top females would. Like luway (taiwanese female pro) was rank 1 on NA GM at one point.

That is true, but sadly she was beaten by CreatorPrime in last Thursday's Asia Starcraft League round of 64. I really wanted to see her go on to Ro32 (Because she's on the same team as Sen, thus also representing a strong sense of Taiwanese national pride), but PvP is extremely cut throat and that night's group of 4 players had 3 protosses. PvP usually makes for a quick best of 3.
Would it be too much to ask if I could "get in on" the next Zowie Divina cup? Almost everyone in Taiwan knows that I'm the foreigner that casts Taiwanese events in English and EU Events in Chinese.
With all due respect, I had more followers than the channel that both of you guys were casting from as well. Adding to that, I am already excrutiatingly well-versed in the Taiwanese & mainland Chinese scene.

Yeah, unfortunately she hasn't been practicing as much recently, so she didn't have the opportunity she normally would. It would have been great to see her get past the tough group she was in.
Ender's is a good caster. I've watched his English and Chinese casts. Although I believe PM's are a better way to communicate your want to get in on the event rather than thread comments ;D
