MC has over 50% more WCS Points than Zest, of course he's the best in the world.

I am pleasantly surprised that the plurality of the Heart vote agrees with me.

But WCS Points is not supposed to be a show of how skilled / good a person is in the first place..

Players that are basically locked in (over 90% chances) MC, Hyun, Stardust, San Taeja, Polt, Bomber, Zest, jjakji
The rest of the 16 most likely players (over 40% chances) sOs, Classic, Jaedong, Life, CJ herO, soO, Pigbaby
The next 9 most likely (to round out the top 25 most likely, over 8%) Snute, MMA, Innovation, Scarlett, Parting, ForGG, Rain, Solar, Liquid Hero

The instant you provide tournaments all over the world is the instant you decide a yearly ranking will favor the people who go to all these tournaments on top of the regular leagues. I don't think it's happy or sad, it's just how it has to be.

I think that Polt and Macsed will go through
|
Man this group is gonna be sick. Hopefully Polt and Jaedong will advance, but it really could be any of them.

Will JD manage to overcome his Achilles heel of cannons? We'll find out soon.

JD will play super-safe in the Loser's Match, and he'll get knocked out when Macsed goes Double Nexus before Gateway.

I wouldn't go that far, but I'd say making 2nd three time should get you higher than 14th at least.

It'll take a lot of PvZ cannon wins to shake the Has legacy.

WCS AM is actually really diverse and strong. I'm happy with the state of AM and EU this season.

Planetkey Dynamics is still sponsoring Oz? Lasted longer than I thought.
