Well, all of the player Korea fields have been the best of their race this year; if NWs took place 8/9 months ago, this would have been very close to the best possible lineup for South Korea.

In what world?

He meant at some point this year. Which is more reasonable even though I still heavily disagree.

Guys I think it's quite clear Team Korea consists of the only 3 Korean players to have beaten Serral this year, the only valid reason for which they're chosen.

Man Inno isn't doing a great job spotting these observers.

soO right after Katowice, I remind you that he was placed as #1 overall in the Power Ranking; Inno's performance at WESG was amazing, he eliminated Maru and was the first to defeat Serral in a Grand Final after two years, he could very well look like the best Terran in that timeframe. Both soO and Inno declined after that.

Stats was very inconsistent this year, but he was the best Protoss around Katowice and he looked like the best again after ASUS ROG.

EDIT: I apologize, I meant what Elentos said.

Inno playing late game TvP with ghosts and all is a real rarity.

Makes more sense, no problem. Just couldn't imagine how you could come to the conclusion that they were the best of their respective races overall this year. :D

Actually i think it's really funny that the "best" protoss lategame army cannot fight headon vs terran but is designed to first widdle the terran force down with poke + aoe to then crush it :D

Well the best Protoss late game army would have had 3 sources of major AOE (+ minor AOE from archons) to force really awkward fights.

Yes of course normally you just poke the terran down with tempest and disruptor and storm (which is actually really hard for the terran to fight) but once you can get it cornered it just dies sooooo fast.

Which is why it's important you don't back yourself into a corner.

We all know disruptors are the true and most reliable form of aoe.
