What the hell??? I mean, "Fulham beat Manchester United in a match".. how does that translate into "Fulham is a better team than ManU"?? It's completely ridiculous.
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 almost no one is saying that Thorzain is the best of the world, people are saying that he BEATED the best in the world.

MUST HAZ SHETH! Congratz to all who were invited though.

"Almost no one" is grossly underrating it. People all over threads were saying ThorZain was the best foreigner terran, and many just went with "best in the world".
Even TZ himself said naniwa is better than him....

You should really invite haypro, he is a three time DH champion after all.
Also: Morrow, sheth, fenix, sase, kiwikaki.

More like Fulham beat MU, Arsenal, Chelsea etc in a bo7, and if they did I'd say they're better for the time being at least.

That's the mistake, if Fulham beats MU, Arsenal, and Chelsea in a bo7, they ARE NOT better, they PLAYED better that particular matchup, doesn't mean they ARE better.
ARE implies a permanent or long standing characteristic in a period of time, you're talking about a specific moment, which is why the concept is wrong.

So inviting haypro just because he won DH in BW is just a waste of an invite, especially since haypro have been playing so so bad the last 6 months and wont stand a chance in this tournament. =/

Sad, but result-wise, true. He has fallen a bit but let's hope he gets back up there again! Maybe the awesome practice/team-house in Stockholm can help him get back on his feet.

TLO! Everything dreamhack says just makes me more and more happy.
