If your girlfriend was kidnapped by Somalian pirates, which three progamers would you take along with you on a rescue mission?
MC is rich, so I'll throw him to the pirates as bait. Then I'll go in for the rescue with Stork.

Hmm apparently Taeja has been tearing it up lately according to San? Must be a beast on ladder atm. Of course he comes on strong when 100k is at stake

The question's been around for quite a while, but in this series of IEM WC interviews only Mana and Nerchio have also been asked it.

Honestly the players are full of shit. There is no way they don't under the table divide first and second to like 70k-30k or something. Too much variance otherwise


How the heck is "too much variance otherwise" a legitimate point supporting what you're saying? In the Olympics, only top 3 people from who knows how many contenders (depends on the discipline, but can get much more than just 16) get medals and money, and yet nobody ever accused them of something like that?

Honestly, in the days of every tournament practically sticking to the 10k for winner, 4k for loser etc, etc it's really hard to stick out. Especially if IEM wants this "Championship" to stand out among the crowds and the other stops of their IEM tournaments, so doing a one off of 100k winner take all is a good chance to do that. It's been talked about for awhile now, and with so many tournaments including WCS there is a good infrastructure in place to support the players away from this tournament, so having a one off like this shouldn't be too bad. Not to mention it could severely change the winner's life, and that's a good thing imo.
There are things known, and things unknown, and in-between are the doors.
