After having been denied the throne in the last edition of Nation Wars by France, Korea finally claimed first place this Saturday in the Grand Final of Nation Wars IV in Paris. The team of (T)INnoVation, (P)Zest and (P)sOs—the original team members (T)ByuN and (T)Maru canceled their participation to focus on GSL instead—beat Germany and Poland on their way to the championship.

The Germans started out well, but after (P)ShoWTimE's initial victory over sOs, INnoVation choked out any more resistance, bringing Korea into the final series with an all kill. There, a dangerous Polish trio waited for them after having beaten Canada 4-2 in their own semifinal. One man in particular was ready to take on the Korean giants.

(Z)Nerchio held his nation in the series for a long time, beating the entire Korean squad—Zest two times even—, but ultimately he stood alone, as his team mates couldn't do anything to support his efforts: INnoVation finally ended the Zerg players' rampage and lead Korea to the title after an amazing Grand Final.

KOREA, KESPAAA

I mean no surprise here, the games were kinda close because Nerchio is really good. At the same time korea didn't bring their actual best players though
Great event, hopefully there will be more of it in the future! In general tournaments which push the nationality button could be a thing in general, i think that would work quite well if done properly (proleague style or something)

Koreans winning a Starcraft related tournament is hardly a spoiler

´gratz' to sOs for winning the "Nation Wars Stephano award" this year :D.
Good fight from Nerchio but the less ace-centric team won in the end.
INno on the other hand... he manages to lose stupidly in spite of being thought of as an invincible force... but then he carries his team to the victory anyways so we forgive him.
