True, some seeding is in it. But will points compare over the regions though? Did someone read the rules that closely?

Nice semifinals. Two Europeans, two Koreans. Well done :-)

I want Polt vs ShoWTimE finals for the sole purpose of making jokes about Captain America beating up Germans tbh.

So I guess WCS 1 v KR 8 and KR 4 v WCS 5 or something like that? it'd be cool to know it exactly, it was so much more straightforward in the past

I'd prefer Nerchio vs MaSa, those guys have impressed in LotV and made a lot of progress, this would be a nice reward and I want to see both of them vs Koreans in Blizzcon.

I think all other combinations are probably better matches.

I mean, this does assume that Polt beats Nerchio. Just gonna throw that out there.

TvT is tolerable, there can be a lot of sick plays but the games can be over pretty fast too. ZvZ is actually pretty good past the early game, I find PvP amazing but maybe that's a P thing.

I really enjoyed the ZvZs today cause they were really diverse and complex, but i've always liked zvz so who knows

I'd like to see King Arthur make it to the final. Regardless of who he meets it will be plenty of fun to watch, but the pressure will be on the zerg I feel.

Actually mirrors are pretty ok in LotV.
