From page 85 and onwards anyone contributing to a gender discussion will face moderation. I feel the need to remind people that balance commentary and complaints are not acceptable posts in LR topics due to the fact that they will derail any tournament topic that it is left unchecked in. If you participate in it you will be moderated. It should also be clear that any SC2 vs LoL debates have no place in this thread. | ||

I think he's got a fantastic opening bracket unless therealBomber shows up. Ryung too. Anyway, so many of my favourites are there. I don't know who I want to win. I think MC or DRG...or Leenock...or Seed...would be nice for Byun to win something. And manzenith awfully handsome. Squirtle showing his mad skills again would be great too.. GAH! IDUNNO! D= At least we can all agree it will be top 10 korean  | ||

Apollo Yea Tasteless Yea Artosis Yea Sheth Meh JMorrow Boo JoRoSaR Boo Kibbelz Boo Schamtoo Boo Grubby Yea Frodan BOO!!!! Kevin Knocke Meh I don't understand why IPL has the GSL finals alongside their huge tournament, and then has a list that is ~half full of great casters and ~half of relatively inferior casters. I don't seem to notice such a huge difference in tiers with other tourneys. User was warned for this post | ||

Of the notables, Creator is likely to face Hyun in round 3, who demolished him in GSL. MC couldn't even make final 4 at an IEM with a weak line up, and Seed got knocked out of Code A, and worst of all, lost his passion according to Nestea. :p San seems to always manage to qualify for these foreign tournaments, but not do too well afterwards. HerO has to play Stephano in round 2, who he barely beat in BWC. Squirtle has to go through Yoda then Byun or DRG only to end up against Polt in round 5. | ||

I agree, I doubt we will see even a Protoss in the top eight bar Creator, who still has one hell of a challenging bracket with HyuN, TaeJa and potentially Polt. | ||

Stop your whining and enjoy the show. | ||

I don't seem to notice such a huge difference in tiers with other tourneys. I agree with most of this...except maybe Frodan is a bit harshly rated, I know whenever I can randomly tune in to live NASL I roll my eyes and x out of it if it's him/gretorp instead of bitterdam, but still...also I kind of like Kevin Knocke. Plus Sheth can never be bad... | ||

Kevin Knocke Meh I don't understand why IPL has the GSL finals alongside their huge tournament, and then has a list that is ~half full of great casters and ~half of relatively inferior casters. I don't seem to notice such a huge difference in tiers with other tourneys. Let me tell you how the cast of a film is made. lets say their budget for the cast is 500. Because of this budget, they get 4 big name actors, they each cost 75, so now your budget is down to 200. Now, they need 8 more members to the cast, but they can't pay more big name actors, so what they do is they get 8 lesser known actors, each for 25. The idea behind this is that your lured to the film because it has these big name actors, while also bringing light on the newer faces. The last thing that this does is ensure growth in the future, if you stuck with the same actors forever, never changed because there were just so damn good, then eventually those actors would all stop and you would be left with nothing, and the film industri would die. The same thing goes for StarCraft 2. | ||

I don't seem to notice such a huge difference in tiers with other tourneys. A lot of people bitched about MLG for not showing enough games at the last event. IPL has so many casters because they wanna cast every game, if you don't like them just mute the stream and be happy you can watch what you want... | ||
