Life should be the only non-terran to have a serious chance here.

Especially as he's the only non-Terran left indeed.

He has the best TvT at that tournament I guess. Though MMA is strong as well.


Aligulac is actually telling me Supernova has great TvT aswell.

Zerg is also not that overrepresented.

The terran participants at Bucharest are the best of their race at the moment (except Bomber ofc) whereas either Zerg nor Protoss had all of their big calibres here.

Could you name 5 "Big Name" Protoss players for me?


Rain
sOs
Parting
Hero
Super Vampire

oh and First.

Yeah, man those guys have been drowning in championships this year.


Cool then name better protosses., maybe naniwa instead of super /vampire


Protoss players dont win tournaments. That was obviously my point. 3 GSLS and 1 OSL, thats it.


They aren't always the best players either. They should have won 2012 season 2, but Mvp literally out thought and out will powered all of them.

They could have won 2012 season 3 gsl, but again Mvp out thought Rain.

At the top level, the racial balance doesn't mean nearly as much as composure, mental power, mental state.


Man that is a mind blowing coincidence that all the bad players happen to pick protoss.

What do you expect? Protoss is a race with by far the easiest macro and micro mechanics, and that leads to them either winning a ton or being balanced but not winning anything. There can be no other option so long as one race is balanced around having relatively easy to 'perfect' micro (forcefields, collosus target firing) then the opposing races will always have far better scaling potential.

I hava a feeling this could be the best series in the tournament so far.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Well, his HotS MLG was the way Artosis described: Every Zerg just died and Life somehow won the entire tournament xD

True, but that wasn't when he rose to power. :o Also that MLG, Life and Leenock were like the only Korean zergs, haha.

Life's rise to power occurred during the Summer of Taeja. Not surprising that it is overshadowed.

Is that true though? There's a lot of spell casting units in Protoss.

why there are so much terran ? This is nothing about balance or anything look at koreans that didn't make the move to dreamhack :

Rain, Soulkey, Dongraegu, Scarlett, Parting. Those guys are actually the top of their race atm but they didnt move.

Now look at how many terran star moved to dreamhack : Taeja, Innovation, Supernova, MMA, ForGG, Flash.

So maybe if top protoss and zerg players move their ass they could win this kind of event . It's sure not even going in will not help them.

DRG or soulkey could definitively claim this tournament.

EDIT : Ok scarlett is not korean but kind of
