Looks to me on the photos that the foreign team looks like a group a cool tourists, whereas the Korean look more like a death squad.

The foreigners honestly have to win both of the first two rounds to have a shot in this whole thing. There isn't a player on that World team who can beat Life in a best of 3. Keep in mind the only person to do that in the last few months is Soulkey, who blatantly stated in his interview that he spent the whole week preparing for Life, and only Life.

Replace Nani/Lucifron or Scarlett with SEn and we would have a stronger team?

Flash also did it at MLG in their first series.

Elfi went up 2-0 in TSL4 but lost 2-3 in the end. Elfi should have been on the world team!

Replacing Scarlett with Sen is not at all a good idea. Scarlett beat Sen 3-0 to qualify and her match up is a ZvZ. Add in that she won ZvZs for both the WCS Canada and North America finals and beat both Nerchio and Moonglade at BWC, then you've got right there a bonfire ZvZ monster. Meanwhile, Sen couldn't even beat her for the spot.

So honestly, who is a better option to throw into the series only ZvZ matchup? ZvZ monster or person who was beaten by ZvZ monster.

While it is true that Scarlett beat SEn in the final qualifier I have to point out it is being played in NA server and is an online not offline event.

Considering their offline result, almost every single time SEn shows up he ends up as the last foreigner standing/best result among foreigners and consistently beat Koreans regardless of the match up. While it is impressive that scarlett beat nerchio and moonglade at BWC, SEn beat Curios 3-0, Zenio 3-1, Killer 2-0 recently in ZvZ and also won against Hero the dreamhack champ and Grubby who got 2nd place in IEM. So imo SEn, who beat koreans consistently and more than every other foreigner beside Stephano, is probably a better choice for the last spot.

edit. also checking their TLPD record, SEn has higher zvz win rate than Scarlett with a lot more games played and against better opponents.
And can you honestly name any foreigner that is better than SEn beside probably Stephano? And even that might be debatable.

This should be in the dictionnary as an example for the word "delusional"

An amount of games played can't really be too helpful here Scarlett hasn't really been on the scene for very long. She only really rose to prominence in July when she won WCS Canada. Before that, while she was known, was not really seen at any events. Since then she has beaten almost everything thrown against her, including Koreans. She has beat Hero twice, and even pushed Leenock to game 7. Leenock! She even beat Bomber at MLG Dallas. With wins against players like that, it's arguable that she has as much right to the title Korean Killer as any foreigner out there.

Which is quite impressive! I've never disputed the fact that Scarlett is good and can beat Koreans on a good day, I'm just saying that given the consistencies of SEn with a much longer career and a slightly more impressive offline result, I would've prefer SEn instead of Lucifron, Nani, and Scarlett as a representative of the foreigners.
