It's pointless to count numbers and whatnot anyway, it's one tournament in a new game after nobody has been able to practice it for two weeks, we don't know anything about who's good at HotS and who isn't since the players were basically invited on WoL results.
MLG and IEM are more like exhibition tournaments imho, yes the play is fun to watch and Koreans win but I don't think it says all too much yet. Let everyone practice for a couple of weeks and GSL/Proleague/DreamHack, etc start up again and then we can judge.

1 one flash for the clean sweet So far for that article about evening the playing field with the expansion. HoTs isn't going to level the playing field, its going to do the complete opposite. Now the foreigners don't have a 2 year head start on the Kespa players so its like it was throughout most of WoL but with double the amount of Koreans in a more micro intensive game.
To add to that..
Kespa organization is now in the mix.
The likely outcome will be
Top 50: All koreans except 2-3 foreigners.

He's doing well, but let's not get ahead of ourselves, I hope people don't go "Stephano fanboy" with Flash, never full fanboy. The banshee, widow mine hellion harass basically won him the game. He went from 20 workers down to 10 up within a few minutes as he just froze Bly in his base and prevented him teching.
Doesn't mean he didn't make mistakes with his units. That could have been even more effective in better hands.

8-8-8? From Flash? Well GG. Night everyone

That might be because he has a full time job that isn't casting SC2 all the time.

No one cares who you hate or don't hate. Read the mod note and behave.

That's weird, I don't remember him placing in the last champ rounds...must not have made it that far

Hes mentioned on multiple occasions he doesnt have the best knowledge for everything he does, what he does do is promote the shit out of all the games he puts his time into, not to mention he and husky are sponsoring axiom in order for proffessional players to live well and actually make a living out of the game, stop being a douche.

1 one flash for the clean sweet To be fair, these aren't even tier 1 foreigners Name more than one 'tier 1' foreigner. Scarlett. Stephano. Naniwa. Really..? Well, Naniwa beat Flash in an MLG, so that's pretty fitting.
WoL is past, its HotS now!

He hasn't had the opportunities since last MLG to play streamed matches because of the "off season." He looked great at that event, and he's always good when he goes into seclusion like now.
i love nani, but neither him nor scarlett are top level players.

It's annoying probably why I like when he loses I remember that - I had so much fun when Flash got eliminated in the U&Ds twice after showcasing "Next level sc2" and "The best Terran play ever probably" ^^
Haha its okay blade555 is a known JD fan, he's gone fanboy for him a couple of times too

You know the dude makes a lot of content that has absolutely nothing to do with SC2, right? It's far from his only focus.

You mean to say that there is roughly 1 "tier 1" foreigner?

You wouldn't call them Tier 1 foreigners? So Stephano stands alone?
