I do agree that the Kespa players are much stronger than 2013 kepsa players in comparison to foreign/non kespa players but I still think that the non kespa players will take series off them, whether they will win overall or not is another matter. Anyway most of my favourite zerg players are not Kespa, Jaedong, Life, Hyun the list goes on. But we will see if Kespa rules or or not when at this tournament and at blizzcon. | ||

It's a self fulfilling thing; MC and Hyun get lots of points because they get invited to everything and they get invited to everything because they have a lot of points. Both Hyun and MC have both gotten almost enough points from the WCS circuit alone to qualify for Blizzcon. Even with no invites at all they would be at Blizzcon. | ||

Weekend - Check 10k Prize - Check Yep everyone knows how this is gonna unfold. Move along folks. Edit: Did some research. Our boy has won 9/10 tournaments entered that have a first place prize of 10k. And he's also on a 7 win spree with no losses between in 10k tournaments. | ||

I feel like the WCS invites should go the more fringe players 13th-20th or so area where their chances at Blizzcon exist but they still need to prove themselves, before they get invites for the top guys who are just going to further the gap pointlessly EDIT: Obviously I'm talking about WCS ranking based invites only. I fully support inviting the title defender and the Proleague MVP | ||

Yes, from WCS EU and NA, whereas Soo, who is probably better than both those guys put together, might not get to blizzcon despite 3 consecutive GSL finals. If we want blizzcon to be entertainment, fine. If we want it to be a serious competitive format, it's a travesty. GSL is the real world championship, blizzcon is a giant showmatch. | ||

WCS points should be the sole province of WCS itself and fully open tournaments, no invites or regional qualifiers. Korea should have double or triple the amount of points, and money, compared to other regions, a GSL Ro8 is easily as hard or harder than winning a mostly foreigner Lan. Then, we can put a hard region lock in place because Korea will actually be worthwhile for Koreans. Boom, everybody wins, we get the best players at blizzcon, no one gets any freebies from invites, and the local NA and EU players actually have something realistic to play for. | ||

If I know my Korean organizers and I think I do My bet is they take that extra money and put it all in first place -_- | ||

So let me run it down who he's beaten in the last 2 months: Action 2-0 Taeja Action 2-0 Nestea Action 2-0 aLive Action 2-0 Myungsik Action 1-0 Dark Action 1-0 Rogue Action 2-0 Trap Action 2-1 B4 Action 2-1 Flash Action 2-0 Believe Action 2-0 Nestea Action 1-0 Yonghwa Action 1-0 Super Action 1-0 Cure. He is pretty good. | ||
