so i guess infi is a high level wc3 player? i'm kinda beyond the point of 'wc3 lololol' but i just hope he's been playing for at least a few months and doesn't get completely steamrolled because if anything's been proven, it's that no matter who you are you can't just jump into starcraft and own in a couple weeks.

Don't worry about Infi. He's in much better shape than Yellow.

Kidding aside, he's been on top of the Chinese ladder for forever and has plenty of experience with SC2. I still wouldn't expect much from him since he's still a WC3 progamer, but if he gets steamrolled, it won't be from lack of experience in SC2.


He's getting to the top of the Chinese ladder by sheer raw talent. His primary focus is without a doubt, still on WC3.

That and mass ladder. He massed games like a madman in previous ladder seasons. Probably not as much MKP, but it's still pretty ridiculous.

He's probably behind on the metagame though - Chinese players usually are - and I doubt his gameplay will be very polished. He definitely has a ton of potential, though; most tip-top WC3 players do.

infi was the guy that everyone hated, and admired. in wc3 he was known for mass expanding with static defenses and counterattacking/not engaging in straight up fights.

hes playing T in sc2 so i assume all of this has changed lol. but would be fun to see a greedy infi playing sc2. if hes high on the ladder im assuming he became more aggressive.

NANI!

And Huk! Idra was a guarantee pretty much. So now we need a few Terrans... Thorzain and MKP perhaps?

Oh, and maybe Stephano/Nerchio/Dimaga/Sen as the other Zerg.

Purely speculation here, but I guess it could be that most of them have other commitments within the same time period, or a lot of them have visa issues. InFi does look like his invitation wasn't simply based on merit, but I think it's ok so long as he is capable of bringing entertaining games to the table.

Negative. There are no towers in SC2.

Oh, awesome! I'm gonna go ahead and expect MC to get invited as well. Provided we don't get any other top notch Koreans we'll see an Infi vs MC finals :D As long as the stars align and they don't end up on the same side of the bracket.

Here's hoping they'll invite BoxeR as well, considering he couldn't make it for the last invitational

I don't follow the Chinese scene much beyond just looking at results, but I've never seen Infi anywhere near the top of the rankings. And given how WC3 is still big in China, I'm sure he's practicing more for that rather than SC2 right now.

I honestly prefer they invited someone who's 100% dedicated to SC2 as of now. Even if they didn't want to invite someone new, there are still quite a few more well-known old BW players like LoveTT, F91, and Super. Or perhaps Loner who had been to Code A.
