I love Rogue and am happy for him, but PvZ is terrible. I think I'd rank it as the worst match up to watch, even below ZvZ. At least in ZvZ a Zerg has a decent chance of losing.

I really think a Zerg killed his dad or something
Like 8 years ago when he was young some guy dressed as a hydralisk came in and destroyed his house.

Grubby and Madfrog had some very intersting things to say about this topic in the wc3 invitational. About finding motivation and getting back to playing well again after winning a huge tournament. Madfrog said he was satisfied after one big win and being the best in world for a day, while Grubby said he couldn't play well for quite some time after winning a WCG. I think this isn't an uncommon statement from esports. I've heard plenty of players and teams from dota 2 after winning TI who just lost motivation afterwards(winning a million or more for each players helps that ) but there's rarely been a team who still does well afterwards. I guess both games tend to have significant patches afterwards.
True but still you'd hear it from the winners in some of their interviews about the question(what does it feel winning etc etc)

the group stage was free, and there where like 3 koreans. clearly not a premier tournament

why on aligulac after update MC still counted as the 2nd most earned player, when i`m sure that i saw an article here about sOs finally outnumbered him?

I honestly don't know how many people talk about it in SC2, although it may have just flown completely under the radar for me.

From how I see it in hindsight it might not have been a motivational problem. Rather that expectations were so high and he was underrated after not qualifying for PyeongChang and dropping out of GSL. I would guess he just didn't adjust to the new patch so well up till now with his ZvT taking a slight drop due to the new patch. Mirror matchups (ZvZ) are always tricky so I wouldn't use them to measure his performance. His ZvP was never really tested this year. And thus we might have judged him too early.

Yet the main event has more prize money than IEM Katowice.

2017 Katowice > 2018 Katowice.
It's close but the final day was just too underwhelming.

Winning a GSL must feel amazing, but it's not the same as winning $200,000.

With audience like this WCS events look so embarrassing
