We can't draw anymore conclusions from them as we could at start of HotS. what tournaments where terran dominating at the start of hots? Flash only lost 4-2 to Life. That's domination right there In all seriousness, people looked at Yoda tearing through IEM and forgot that it was a new game anyone who balance whines because of 1 guy is stupid

no but it gives points towards WCS, but it is not a direct WCS tournament. And there are plenty of good koreans.

I don't understand why people were calling Polt the favorite when he isn't even the best Terran at the tournament.

We had terrans winning a lot of matches, especially before the hellbat medivac first patch, also we had terran progamers saying terran is too strong... I was in those LR threads, telling people it was too early to criticize terran since we only had a few games played, maybe don't try to rewrite history when I was a part of it?

They should pick a better tiebreaker than a coinflip. Maybe a round of micro master?
