Wow. Vortix going beastmode. You have to wonder how much they really care about IPTL when they have Proleague and the individual leagues to worry about.

Vortix winning again. He is clearly a top5 foreigner at least. Just doesn't get credit because he is zerg.

They knew Vortix was probably going to be K3's trumpcard. so why did they not plan ahead instead of giving him 3 good zerg maps?

Yeaaaa no

Lucifron, Thorzain, Stephano, sometimes Naniwa, Snute, Sortof, Kas, Mana, Hasuobs, and Grubby are all better/more proven than Vortix....

No, Vortix is definitely above all of those besides possibly the first three and occasionally naniwa.

Top 5 should be (in no particular order) Stephano, Snute, Vortix, Sortof, Nerchio

Have you looked at the map pool? There are maybe 3 'bad' maps for zerg Ohana (starting map), Antiga (selected by K3), Entombed (select by K3). When you have Whirlwind, Abyssal, Metropolis, Atlantis Spaceship all in the pool, it is pretty hard to take them all out. Taeja already took out Abyssal when facing Lucifron.

They should have given Vortix a Up and Down seed instead of Huk and Grubby. It is amazing how much better then them he is.

Edit: To be fair I guess GOM wanted more tosses. I guess Nani and Mana were not avaible?


Mana got his seed pretty recently. As for Vortix (and Lucifron for that matter), would they even want to go to Korea for 2 months it takes for Code S. We have to remember that not ALL players want to just pack up and live in a foreign country for 2 months (even if it is Code S).

Naniwa is, and always be on that list for his runs in the GSL if you talk about all time. Currently, he hasn't been his absolute best, but Mana is also up there. I like how all 5 of those players you list are Zerg.
PartinG fanboy to the max, Rain/Squirtle/Dear/Scarlett/Bbyong are cool too. I don't always watch Dota2 but when I do I have no clue what's going on. GOGO POWER RANGERS

Awesome stuff. Didn't get to watch the final 2 games, but very impressive for a Euro-only team with a much smaller footprint than Team Liquid. Big props to Karonte.

If we're talking about all time we'd probably need to include Jinro, Idra, Huk, and possibly Sen. But if we are talking about ATM, I probably wouldn't include Naniwa.

Of all the people so far, you've been the only one to get it
In all seriousness, yes Naniwa and Mana should get the nod, if only because of good results in the past few months, as well as Thorzain.

And how would you know if they were asked by GOM but didn't want to go live in Korea for 2 months. Same with players like Scarlett, Snute, etc. We only really know when the player accepts the seeds, who knows how many have been turned down.

Remember, you have to make a trip over just to play in the U&D. Then if you make it, you have about stay for 2 weeks to 2 months.
