Christmas is in 5 days and you're crying over no foreigners this week other than ThorZaIN?
Do you not realize ThorZaIN's game against BaBy is on Christmas day?
All I see from this post is "Fuck family, I want foreigners to play in Proleague and forget about their families on Christmas."
If you really care about the foreigners try following them on Twitter and you might realize some of these things:
Stephano - At HomeStory Cup 6.
IdrA - Not playing in Proleague until round 2.
HuK - On vacation for the rest of the year.
Sheth - Can't play because his hands are injured and he's been helping his dad who was recently injured in a motorcycle accident.
Ret - At HomeStory Cup 6.
TLO - At HomeStory Cup 6.
Suppy - Attending college and can't take time off.
DeMusliM - No idea but he's not even on the roster for Proleague anyways... Much like half of the people listed above.
The amount of ignorance in this post is fucking insane.

Actually I didn't think about christmas because my own is shaping up to be shit so forgive my ignorance on that part and I don't have Twitter. No need to take personal offense but I still stand by my expectations.

Wow ThorZain in korea on Christmas day? Wow, guy is very commited, hats off to him, hope he wins!

Grrr, Bisu comes back from the bench, only to play Roro?! How cruel.
|
EGTL is keeping the same line up against stars. I think it's a really well layed out roster.

will there be any interesting things in the Hitman vs Baby on Bifrost VOD? i consider trading yeongjae for hitman, and he plays another ZvT on Bifrost, this time vs RorO

Guys, Zenio is great. End of discussion. You guys are being too harsh. I trust him more than Jaedong, and I like Jaedong.
And I think mixing up foreigners is great. They give them a shot to prove themselves, and they are great players, and their style is different than Korean style, which obviously it has its ups and downs, but it makes the games so much fun and interesting.
EGTL is doing a great job. They are setting the bar pretty high for the international teams.
And seriously, do you guys think they would send out Thorzain or Huk if they didnt think they had a shot at winning? Soon, they'll shut the mouth of a lot of haters.

Keep in mind when it was announced EG-TL would be joining Proleague the message included that players would still attend foreign events during Proleague. Foreigners won't be available to play in every single match.

http://www.twitch.tv/ignproleague/b/349228641 Just watch game 1. All you need. Best ZvZ of 2012... and it was played this week.

Bisu build should come in handy here, sc2 version please. I actually think hots will be better for him but for now I'm hoping he copies parting's soul push well.
|
I can't say I get the choice to play Thorzain.=/ I mean, I suppose if you're going to choose to play a foreigner I'd play him over Huk, but if EGTL is actually taking things seriously he hardly has the results recently to warrant being played in Proleague.

Whaaaat Bisu?! Looking forward to seeing how he does!

Eh, he played pretty well at Dreamhack Winter, taking out forGG and going up 2-0 on Taeja before losing. I think this week he should perform much better, because he isn't facing a Zerg. Recently TvZ has been Thorzain's worst matchup by far. I think Thorzain's TvT and especially TvP are on average KESPA level, and I think that he'll get better with more opportunities.
I can't understand ever playing HuK, though.

No Bong[S.G] after two appearances last week. It's gonna be tough finding someone to trade for him.
|
Next week is shock full of exiting players playing on fun maps. SPL is shaping up to be a fun tournament to watch.
|
Damn, Hydra is playing back to back ZvZ against soO and Action. Hopefully he can 2-0 there, hes been playing well lately so I hope so.
Hopefully Taeja will pull through for me. Same for Fantasy and Jaedong.
