I should be sorry to see Thorzain lose but if that's the best he can do after so much time in Korea then he has it coming.

Or we can just have open qualifiers for ALL of the invite slots.

Seedless tournament with open brackets, sounds nice eh?

Sadly, business is the most important part of esports these days it seems.


Business was always the most important part of esports.

Well I mean there was the time when esports wasnt sustainable. That was a good time. I wasnt there though because I didnt know about it.

It still isn't sustainable, but it's more the attitude that seems to have changed. It's gone from "Let's try to at least be non-profit" to "Let's make money from this". It's not all bad as it does get a facelift, the question is whether or not it still looks good in a couple years.

Purely open bracket is a terrible idea because if on the one day a player has to qualify for an event, he feels off his game or is sick, or maybe his dog died, he could end up not qualifying. Even if he is a potential champion. That's not a very intelligent format, to say the least.

But then the foreign scene would be dead.


Yep, and there would be no more Foreign SC2 tournaments like MLG, NASL.


Well, not entirely true. If they could still get high viewer numbers and lots of spectators nothing would change, they could still fly in the good players from Korea and hold an event. It just depends on if the fans will accept that.


The viewership numbers have already shown they wont. Viewers want to see foreigner vs Korea (and foreigner win but that's unlikely) and the moment a tournament becomes all Korean you can watch the views go down significantly. As long as the viewers want to watch foreigner vs Korea than you will get seeded foreigners so that they can play Koreans.

Think ravens form murders as well, though "like a murder of crows" just sounds much more badass.


Ravens are oversized crows. More or less. The entire Corvidae Corvus branch are pretty close.

I wonder when Flash will start turtle terran. He is better than anyone at turtling and getting right positions. Whenever he starts sc2 turtle terran, he'll be tough to beat.

I dont get why thorzain plays s passive, his ravens sat there in the back conserving energy while the rest of his base / mines was being destroyed .... bomber on game 3 vs gosuer was constantly hunter seekering the BL's / infestors ...complete was of supply if you never end up using the unit.

Unlikely, people will still watch Koreans. Maybe not as many but a lot of people don't care where players are from.

We are missing some of the better foreigners + a lot of these guys have said they haven't played a lot lately (State focusing on school/Minigun saying he only plays 4-5 hrs a day) I don't know why people think these guys should win vs people who play 24/7 with dedicated teams to help them.

Killer 1 - 0 Thorzain


Yes we feel very secure that a guy camping out on 4 base while getting all his valuable units picked off by vipers loses to an infinity money zerg.

Very secure..

What a weird game from Thorzain ... turtling all the time. That easily was one of the most passive playstyles I've ever seen.

What do you know....festor/brood lord is still strong.

Yes, it is strong again the guy who sits and do nothing for 20 minutes... Then bunch of Hydras go to his third base, destroy CC, and force him to lift 4 Orbitals there, while ThorZain is still dancing with Ravens and Vikings, and isn't doing anything. Killer had great economy and so much money banked that he could have gone anything and still win. After all, he got 35 Corruptors, while ThorZain went for Air play and didn't have half the army of what Killer had.
