Blizzcon isn't supossed to be the most competitive tournament. It's clear that blizzard's intention is for it to be some sort of World Cup (like FIFA's World Cup for football (soccer)) and everyone know that kind of tournament puts regional representation over competitivenes.

i can't wait for the vod, even the idea of incontrol doing a naniwa voice is hilarious.

Well, I somehow disagree with Incontrol on the blizzcon invitational. Sure there is Nestea, MVP, some other good players and some random players you almost don't know about. But at least they gives a chance to those players, while MLG format is just so hard for new players that it's almost impossible for a young player to get known, because he first have to get through the bracket, play the best he can, and get streamed (which is not the case for many players, like Slush for exemple).
I don't think the word "competitive" should instantly mean that you need to have the best players of the best, more that you got to have equal chance for anyone, no matter his fame, to get the trophy.
So sure, Nifi, Jazbas and ToodMing comes from nowhere, but at least they will fight, maybe get the motivation to train the best they can.

i dont see your point at all. in football atleast (in theory) you dont need everyone to play everyone in order to see who the best team is. theres no clear cut race structure or counter pick system between teams, the team that wins the world cup is 9/10 times the best team in the world.

at this stage in sc2 you could say the same thing, the koreans are so far ahead (at the very very top) that theres no question of counter picks to beat certain people who fell out at the regional stage.

Im no football expert by any means. But wouldn't most "high tier" football clubs (such as barcelona, manchester united etc etc) beat any World Cup team? Which is exactly his point. National representation over competetiveness.

Well, you know, You can always stop watching if it annoys you that much. But one thing is certain, they won't drop Incontrol out of the show and they shouldn't.

Austria!

It's probably just a different sense of humor, man. Geoff adds good stuff to the show.
