Actually no.
Yes it is bad now but don't forget this is the first season ever Zerg is having more code S then Terran.
Now compare that to the 20 code S Terrans....

It's not only about code S, zergs are winning everywhere, just look at the korean/foreigner prize distribution for Z in 2012.

Now compare that to the fact that zergs didn't know how to play the game (by this I mean defending certain attacks and timings and walking razor's edge in production which is part of zerg mechanics) and the NUMEROUS BALANCE and MAP changes every season. Now zergs are happy and will begin the whining in HotS until they win every tournament as well.

Prediction is that terran nerfs and map changes happen every season in HotS while zergs simultaneously learn how to economically deal with all harrassment techniques and then we arrive at a WoL-like state all over again just in time for Legacy of the Hive.

People saying less and less money is going into Sc2 and it is dying. Well this thread proves that wrong in terms of money going into the game.

The update really just confirms the general consensus that Terran is harder to play, 23% of terran winnings are from non-koreans, tho that also counts 2010/2011 when terrible maps/spawns made terran imba. Western progamers should defo not pick terran.

EDIT: Top 5 players earning breakdown below.

SC2earnings doesn't gather detail for every tournament that pays out, unfortunately. Indeed there are loads it misses, not to mention all the smaller showmatches and whatnot. I imagine the trend would still exist but the numbers aren't 100% accurate just going off SC2earnings.

Either way, interesting stuff. Liking how much the prize pool increases and how foreigners are (slowly) taking more of it. Hopefully we'll see this continue in 2013!

of imbalance.

of people actually watching sc2, of having fun with the game, etc. I haven't truly cared about sc2 at all after mvp lost to life (despite him having put a lot more thought into his preparation, considering how the games looked), and that was just the icing on the cake after a really long time of torture.At least hots is coming soon and everything is gonna change, hopefully for the better, hue.
So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie

Thanks a lot for this. It would be really interesting to do a separate korean and foreign statistics for 2011 and 2012 but I suppose a lot of work went down on your research. Korean race OP as usual, David Kim is bias and no fix :[

hahaha, nerf koreans - make starcraft easier ? or make completely new patches only in english ?
But i guess they will figure it out and win anyway T_T

Time to go to the black board ^^ No I mentioned it in a post but not in the OP.

All big tournaments are in there. The tournaments that are not in there are the really small online tournaments, I think prize money payments below 50$ is excluded.

If you count the 50million Won that will be won by either Symbol or RoRo in GSL 2013 season 1 towards Zerg we're back to Zerg winning the prizemoney war in WoL

Yeah most likely so, add that the top 3 in Iron Squid II was also all Zergs so.
