He just needs to think. I wonder if 10 protoss is trying to tell us something about how GSL is predicting the future of the patch. | ||

It's a waste of time, effort, and money. I don't think many people will watch it either unless most of the non protoss go on a major run. | ||

You should not have such an uneven distributed lineup for a "balance tournamen". Just have a lot of showmatches instead if you can't find enough zerg and terran players. | ||

(I mean this quite literally by the way, the active Korean pro scene is small enough that 16 might as well be half of it) The amount of people in this thread saying "Well I'd rather have no tournament at all than a tournament with bad racial distribution" is mind-boggling to me. | ||

I like new content, a new tournament. But i also think that it should be reasonably easy to do it in a decent way. This racial balance isn't decent, it's horrible and quite frankly destroys hype. I simply cannot understand how they can come to the conclusion that this is ok. That's mind-boggling to me I will still watch it ofc, but yeah i am hugely disappointed atm. | ||

I do like that they're bringing out a new tournament, but I feel the racial distribution could have been better. That said, glad they are bringing content! | ||

Still, I feel like I'm always seeing a lot more zergs qualify for tournaments then get turfed out until there's only a handful left. I'll be surprised if there's PvP in the semi finals/finals. | ||
