Hey so unlock KR region next year since they are terrible? Uh?

Keep them locked so they can actually win

They aren't locked the same way foreigners are though

Honestly even if they unlocked wcs there wouldn't be too many koreans in them now. Regional qualifiers would allow a couple in directly, but yhe teams most koreans are signed to aren't gonna send them around the world to play in open brackets. Only Liquid, Splyce, or JinAir might do it.

Then again even 1-2 koreans can still ruin wcs events so it's not gonna happen. Even though Serral does that anyway

I mean it's not really their fault. They need to stick to the schedule and the games were over super quickly.

There have been bo3s that lasted as long as all 13 games today

It's not like Blizzard changed the pace of the game by balance patches

Let's be honest if the games were long it would have just been a 9 hour broadcast. I don't think the breaks were specifically to keep in on track.

All the more reason for bo5 matches. But today was all 2-0s so it wouldn't have made much difference anyway

All these delays could be avoided if they just had two different setups, so the next players could setup while the last series is on

So not a single good series or game today.

sOs's cannon rush was embarrassingly bad. Bullshit proxy bingo ft Maru, Neeb and TY. Serral trashing in ZvP. Lambo and Heromarine playing as expected.

As long as you were doing something other than watching it was pretty good.

I feel like Zest at least put up some sort of fight, even though PvZ is his worst matchup by far... but sOs was just so disappointing.
It’s a shame that a player with 2 BlizzCon titles has become so bad, I don’t get it :/.

Gg wp Serral and Maru, they are another class right now
Hopefully we see some good Protoss play tomorrow with Stats, Classic and ShoWTimE

Yeah even this year his PvZ and PvP are weak but his PvT is pretty good so odds are not looking good for him. He used to be a lot more well rounded and just better overall.

Just when I had finally forgotten about Mana vs Firecake...
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

I lost it in the break leading up to the maru winner match .. i fell asleep.

The studio atmosphere is really dull, 8? friends gathered to talk about starcraft just like the 8 years before. No fresh air with new formats, very surface level talk on the "round table" the hub for deep talk in theory. (Whats do you think about player x, oh i think he has some kind of chance to win this am i right Y, goes to next caster.)

Remember the weather man from earlier starcraft events, talking about a map specific thing we should look for on a big screen (example: where does maru place his hidden buildings usually)

Just more of the same, doesn't feel like a grand final to me. In the first 1-2 hours you could hear the air conditioner buzzing over the mic`s when zooming out of the play area, nothing was going on besides 2 players starring and hiding behind a screen for some time. I usually don`t look at game time vs talk/ads but in the first 2 hours we got 24 min of game play.

We had amazing production quality in the past, other games stepped it up huge times especially league/cs go/dota seems like we skipped all these years :/
