This was the best article I've read in a long time. The multicultural nature of WCS America especially resonated deeply with me. Stuchiu, thanks for the sneak peek for the article by posting that paragraph about Revival in the Kespa Cup qualifier thread. I wondered how you'd written something so perfect so fast.

He had a friend who helped speed along the process huehuehue

But seriously, stuchiu is a really fast drafter.

It was an ugly misshapen thing before my editor smoothed out all the edges.

Though I take full credit for my full on delusional stream of consciousness at the end of the WCS AM.

A younger competitive scene has its own unique challenges. As the article points out, unlike now where the meta is more stable, back then lots of things were still being figured out and mvp rose to the challenge. Remember how they nerfed ghosts because of him?

WCS AM I don't give a slightest fuck, EU I could watch the final, GSL I'd rather have it twice as often + OSL. My opinion: the whole scene went downhill since WCS started. Please do not argue, this is what I think not what I'm trying to prove true.

The only reason that EU can hold is because the lag between KR to EU. Since the Koreans can live in EU and play from EU. The EU scene fall quickly.
Why don't you play other Dota kind games? Because there is no Denies!!!!

FUCK I miss MVP so much. The King of Wings lives as a skeleton king on the GSL throne.

I think things are looking up for SC2. The stability creates the ability to produce long term leagues

You know, I was a pretty big GSL snob earlier in SC2. I didn't watch many foreign tournaments because I just figured the Koreans would crush anyways (and they usually did). But the past year, I've pretty much *only* watched WCS AM.

I could never put my finger on what I liked so much about it, but this article really put into words what I was feeling. Such a great mash-up of craziness. I think for representative WCS AM vods honorable mention has to go to Heart - Suppy sometime last year.

Great. One of the best articles I've read on TL.

Also I just rewatched the yugioh rage. Omg.

It was in contention. We just couldn't find a place to squeeze it in.
