It's no matter how hard I cheered for Lilbow, the only real thing that mattered was that we had a foreigner finals for the first time in years!

This is something truly amazing. And in a tournament with Polt, Hydra, ForGG nonetheless...

nitpick: Idra is not capitalised (gonna edit and remove this)

This said, I'm happy to notice that I'm not the only one who was moved by Zanster's tweet.
Mana did indeed play thebest run of his all career, and Lilbow proved not onlt that he can make it twice to a WCS final, but win it as well.

But overall, the foreign scene did well at the whole event: Neeb did his job against Stardust, Elazer was on the verge of beating both Polt and Hydra and Sen's longevity is a record by itself.
The foreign scene is not dead, but well alive as results prove: let's hope for it to improve more and more!
Foreigners fighting!

Had a couple of cool moments, but overall a pretty lackluster season. Well, hopefully with LotV the people can get more out of even foreigner (level korean) starcraft eventually.

Love Zanster's tweet. I hope what happened is a huge motivation boost for all the foreign community.

Surely now without most of the good Koreans the foreigners will make each other stronger by playing and planning together.

Remember that was his moment of triumph, beating Mvp to advance to the quarter-finals right after he won the WCS 2013 Season 1. WCS 2013 Season 2 will still go down as the most emotional for me overall, but this was a close second. Thanks for writing this recap!

How can we thank netwars.pl guys for their involvement in making this event so enthusiast and alive ? I tried to register on their forum but I didn't succeeded.

It wasn't really a comeback in that game, Hydra just died to a counter attack that's 100% guaranteed to happen after you snipe that nexus.

Netwars has an invite based registration system - you can't register unless someone with an account recommends you. The forums are in polish only, so I'm not sure how of use an account would be for a foreigner. If you wish, you can probably join the facebook netwars group (https://www.facebook.com/groups/169058999829203/), but, once again - all of it is in polish.

Just be supportive of the game, show up for any events you can and scream your lungs out whenever you're there - that's all the support we need

Netwars also does a fundraiser before every offline event (all of the money raised goes towards flags, banners and other similar materials), but I don't think TL.net staff would be happy if I posted information about them here.
