Or maybe you should stop over-hyping a player who had 1 good result in the last 3 years, while getting constantly crushed by the better Koreans everywhere else. He is 25-49 in offline BO3+ matches against Korea, but almost all of his wins come from beating players like True, Leenock, Top... He is super duper mediocre.
But I understand the results of the foreign-land so far are making you mad so you need to kick around you a bit
Overhyping? Recently he defeated stronger koreans, don't you think? Elazer has no hope against korean Terrans, but he can beat good koreans in ZvP and ZvZ. Thus said, no one should consider Elazer a favourite, he is not even a top5 WCS player actually, but he is absolutely not "super duper mediocre" as you think he is.
Not counting this IEM, from his last 20 matches against Korea he beat: MMA (retired player), Creator and Trust (irrelevant players), Bunny, Solarx2 (3:2 every time) and 1 lucky win against Dark. If this is not a definition of mediocrity with a lucky scrappy win here and there then I dont know what is.
Seeing you two back at it bring back so much memories
And it's about Elazer, this time. You are free to believe he's a mediocre player, I'll call you out the next time he pulls out some interesting upset; Elazer's victory against Dark was not lucky, he outplayed him in lategame ZvZ.

It's okay guys when I get a billion dollars I will just unify all of pro SC2 under the Wax-league and hold a 128 person swiss format over a week to determine the world champion and give him $1,000,0000 prize, no playoffs or anything

Hold up we were discussing that Zerg was imba. You're the enemy!

a) see my post after yours b) its wrong also, shows INno 4-0 for example which is incorrect.
Welll, you put 30 question marks, i've just linked why people said it.
Statistics are tricky, but once someone starts to selectively dismiss results, he's in no position to discuss the matchup.
You have to selectively dismiss results. You do that to clear up statistics. Obviously its trickier in Starcraft as you will always have personal opinion mixed into it but I try to be as fair as possible. If you would match Has against Maru for example - while Has is progamer he is a lot worse than Maru. The match would yield you no real impact on the balance discussion.
If Has wins 50% against Maru you can say the balance is busted though. You simply cannot argue on the terms of a whole tournament. Obviously this goes into each direction. I wouldn't count an avilo loss against Stats either in terms of balance-relevance.

You actually think that glorified showmatch known as GSL vs the World actually means anything. That's the part that you get wrong.
The GSL players OBVIOUSLY don't take those games seriously. That was true of the first tournament and of the second one also. Dark was just coming off of his Code S win and was going to get paid just for showing up to the vs the World. Do you think he actually came prepared or practiced?
Elazer came in hungry and took the games seriously and Dark didn't.
Want to see what happens when Dark wants it? Blizzcon happens. What happened at Blizzcon? Oh right, Dark embarassed the hell out of the EU Zergs, it wasn't even remotely close.
