I don't know how anyone can argue that Naniwa won't be in the finals. Any other predictions would be foolish. He's the highest bitcoin earner in SC2 history!

I honestly don't think that inviting another Protoss was a good idea, I know his is world champ and bla bla bla but they could have invited Mvp as second terran and hype wise he wouldn't be worth considerably less that sos and most importantly less PvP is better.
I can only hope more T and Z will qualify and prove me wrong that I havent wasted my money on a PvP tournament I don't give two shits and a fuck about but I guess after seeing SuperNova vs Trap today I can sefely say I dont see a not brain dead protoss losing to a terran in those qualifiers so I will just root for zergs to save my self some frustration.

Well if no terran qualifies, we need to invite them! I get the point of tournament organizers, trying to make this not look like a 2race game. Reality is quite different though.

Wow! What's that sign in front of TaeJa's nickname? Is that a new race?

It's not a new race, it's one from a forgotten time that only exists in fairy tales nowadays. Legend has it that the "terrans" will come again someday and bring justice to the world

I'm foreseeing replacements. Aren't Revival and Oz still teamless? I don't think IEM covers full flight+hotel?

a winner-take-all $100,000 prize


You're going to host a winner-take-all with a protoss stacked tournament?

PvPs don't lead people to believe that the winners deserved it 100%, which is less of a problem when the prize pool isn't winner-take-all.

And who likes watching PvP? Imagine if the non-toss players get eliminated in the first round, what will happen to viewers?
Can we help spread the word and create pressure to get Rob Pardo to replace Browder as head of Sc2? Pardo led the team for broodwar, frozen throne, and wow/BC. We need to make this a thing before LotV development starts. Think about it.

I'm surprised Yoda didn't get an invite. Sure, sOs and Taeja are better players and deserve it more. I just thought IEM always invites the defending champ to these.
