GSL is also missing players though, most notably Taeja. That's the big downside of WCS IMHO, there is no centralized tournament, where all of the world class is playing anymore (obviously GSL is still the strongest, but it used to be stronger). Ofc. kespa teams prioritizing a teamleague over WCS doesn't help either.

They changed the analyst desk today. Yesterday they had bling and harstem analyzing the games. Today, they bring the winner for an intervjew, which I think it is a lot better.
Edit-You missed out on the NASL sound guy. He's been appearing randomly throughout the tournament. Stream would periodically disappear in the middle of games.

I see. Sorcery I say.

So now the question is if "now" means now, in 20 mins or in an hour. Wonder if there's enough time to do something else before next match.

Probably because farming foreigner lans is better than making deep runs into GSL if you want to go to Blizzcon, so it's not even worth it if you're in PL. Imo GSL finalists should be directly seeded to Blizzcon, and Ro8 and up should give equivalent WCS point to winning an DH or other foreigner premier.

Would probably help bring people in, that really should be there, but currently aren't (Maru, Rain, etc). Then again, it is kinda the fault of the PL teams, to set their priorities on PL instead of WCS as well.

That way you'll end up with 80% protoss at Blizzcon.
People care more about spectacle than fairness of competition.

Are there any more games tonight? The graphic on the stream doesn't state an upcoming game. Last game was TLO vs Bunny.

Yes, the tournament will be finished today. Would be kinda weird to play one bo3 and then wait for tomorrow.

Ah, I tuned into it late when they started the last TLO vs Bunny match and they just wen't to a splash screen that doesn't state anymore games are coming, just Day 3. Looks like they fixed it now though.

Which illustrates the problem perfectly. There is no way on this earth that 6 NA and 4 EU players deserve to be at what is supposed to be the pinnacle of SC2 competition over the 10 guys behind the 6 people from Korea.
