Right now people think he's good but give it a few weeks Hydra would shit on Polt right now Hydra would shit on Polt in any enviroment that doesn't have Secret Spring in the map pool If Polt hadn't randomly lost on Catellena he wouldn't even have needed the game 7 Secret Spring win
If Hydra hadn't choked after 3 sweeps in a row and then the guaranteed win on Deadwing
all in all, it came to the match point on the most ridiculous map to ever have made it to any competitive game

^^^ are you not entertained people who cried for region lock? :D I think it's entertaining. I love the upsets, and if there were any more Koreans playing today I probably wouldn't even be watching tbh. I planned on taking a nap for this next group but I think I'll have some faith in Elazer. Yup you're the people who helped make it this way. The people who are far more interested what the players look like out of game than they're play in game. Koreans just so boring amirite? Great success, then. I'm interested in seeing the foreign scene do well, not seeing which 6-7 lesser Koreans can beat eachother 3 times a year outside of Korea. It's not about race, like you're trying to make it sound. I do keep up with proleague and GSL. But the same few Koreans farming a foreign tournament isn't fun to watch. If this is your definition of the foreign scene doing well...EU player improved greatly last year but now with region lock have stagnated and still none of them are gonna make blizzcon. And those 6-7 lesser Koreans have all shown they can compete with best at Blizzcon and back in Korea this year and they sure as hell showed much better games than what we've seen this week. The highlight of WCS this year was Polt vs Hydra, other than that it's been a wet noodle fight to see who gets crushed at the end when the Koreans remember that they're much better. I'm sorry but I really can't see how that's better than what we saw last year Yes, all of what you said, and having a tournament that people actually care to watch. If a foreigner reaches the finals the viewers will be double. That is my definition of the foreign scene doing well. I mean don't get me wrong the tournament needs Koreans or it doesn't feel legitimate. Even if they are lesser ones. But they need to be dropping series/being upset for it to be entertaining. WCS season 1 finals of 2 Koreans had roughly the same viewers as season 2 finals with a foreigner. Your point is invalid. And if the only thing you find entertaining in sc. is foreigners beating Koreans then frankly I'm impressed you've hung around this long given it barely ever happens Well, I was hardly following it for about a year. Thank God for region lock am I right? I mean, I was making fun of GFB, Zanster, etc being in the Ro8 but seeing 16 Koreans in the Ro16 of WCS America was way dumber. ...I enjoyed that more lol, I miss Hyun, Bomber, Alicia, MC, MMA, Stardust, San, Pigbaby, Taeja, HerO...some of those we still see but not as much and not competing together
Agreed. We had some really good ro8s and onwards. i feel like watching a bo5 between Lilbow and GFB is gonna be mind numbing lol

JD wins this season of wcs, everybody knows this... He gets to the finals, only for his opponent to reveal himself to have been Has in disguise all along. Jaedong gets destroyed with the most ridiculous cheese you can't even imagine because you're not Has. The world finally achieves perfection. Doesn't even need to be Has. JD can't win a final against a Terran either anyway Polt or ForGG would put him in the dumpster
Has is the only one who can trump Sos though.

Clearly not haha Secret Spring was very imbalanced but at least you could conceivably play standard and not every matchup was terrible

TvP was terrible, ZvT was terrible, PvZ was terrible, ZvZ was semi-terrible. Can't speak about other mirrors.
