technically neither Fenix nor Sen are NA, Fenix is south american and sen i believe is taiwanese. i'm sure all of those are at least going to get invited though, they're all really good players. | ||

Sen is already invited though and lately Fenix has stepped up his game. Solely my opinion but i feel the american scene possibly north and south is weak at the moment in terms of player depth. Select is not even from the continent i just put him in with them to beef it out and partly due to him staying there. Fenix has also been laddering on EU and doing fairly well. Does anyone know how the chinese player Loner is getting on, to my knowledge he has dropped off the face of the earth after some impressive performances early on. Be nice to see him come back and possibly 1-2 other chinese stars. If we want to grow the game we need to involve them more, heres hoping and intel extreme masters event happens over there. | ||

Thorzain just demolished Fenix on his stream.  But yeah, Fenix has had a good run in the NASL at least... He might be a good pick. | ||

(i guess the finals of the TSL but he hasnt shown results at a weekend lan where you play multiple games/ cant prepare for everything) I think he has the potential to be a great player but i dont think just because he won the TSL it means he is the greatest player right now (he is awesome dont get me wrong). I will wait for further results before i start praising him though a good showing at dreamhack would defenetly help. Lots of players have gone on to win a tournament and then show sub par results/ never really acheive anything. So we will have to wait and see weather he is a 1 hit wonder or if he actually has what it takes to be a western bonjwa ^^ | ||

I would agree with you as well. He is an amazing player of course, one of the best Terran's outside of Korea but consistent games in short succession need to be shown before we say he is THE best which a few are saying already about him and he would probably agree. I am sure the pressure of a huge LAN such as Dreamhack is enough to tilt some players so we'll see if he can manage the big stage. I hope he can. | ||

Loner isn't really that good anymore, at least from recent showings/results, but it'd definitely be amazing if they could get XiaoT, LoveTT, and Loveced. | ||

Thorzain is a good terran, but he's definitely not the best. He might be one of the best strategizers and game planners when given ideal conditions, but on the more regular cup conditions, he hasn't had any major victories. One match proves nothing. I'm not saying he's a bad player, but when people judge player's skill and performance based on single matches, they're just doing it wrong. Oh yeah, I forgot. Inca is better than NaDa. LOOLLL | ||
