No he lost to MC in the Semi finals and was set for the 3rd/4th place match. Somehow the match got delayed to a later date, and the actual results have never made it to the English scene so I don't know if he was 3rd or 4th. Lovecd was the one that took 2nd. | ||

They have A LOT of good players for them to be turning him into a manager. Well, firstly, he's getting paid a shit ton more than he would have gotten paid as a player from a country with a shitty internet connection (making it hard to play in international competitions) in a scene that's still relatively new and taking off. Secondly, I imagine he can actually do quite a bit to grow eSports in China. This may just be me acting optimistic. I'm still very depressed by all this. I do think he'll try to send iG's SC2 team to the GSL eventually. Given how much both he and XiGua talked about competing in the GSL, he and his team obviously recognize how important it is for them to make a splash in the scene. | ||

Latest news from WCG, top national player IG.xiaOt has forfeited his place in China WCG Finals. XiaOt's decision may be due to IG's manager too busy to manage the team's practice. XiaOt might be taking over a managerial role in his team in the near future. + Show Spoiler + 来自WCG现场的最新消息，有国服第一人之称的IG.xiaOt弃权了本次WCG中国区总决赛的比赛。原因可能是由于担任IG的战队经理之后事物繁忙，疏于练习的缘故。而在以后，xiaOt可能将会逐步完成选手到管理层的转变。 而B组的另一名虫族选手jifeng也弃权了本届WCG总决赛。这样B组F91与VA.Syc将直接小组出线。他们之间的胜者将成为小组第一。 Source P/S: Im not a native English speaker.

although i admit it's nice to see he's still sticking with the scene, maybe he'll come back for some show matches or something. | ||

I hoped SC2 would change that but it doesn't seem to be the case. I agree, XiaOt was the only chinese player I heard of, seeing him 2-0 IdrA after saying he will dominate IdrA because his teammate zergs are so much better than him...makes me wish I saw more Chinese players, if there are any good ones oo | ||

That was ladder inflation I believe, just like how there were so many people at the top of the ladder on SEA and LA >.> | ||
