8-4-4 racial distribution? Don't wanna whine about balance, but... Anyway, little surprising that sOs and/or Zest (not to mention Classic) didn't make it through. Also Scarlett was apparently one series away from qualifying, bad luck.

Zest was in a bracket with Inno and Ryung, it's sad he didn't make it but at the same time I didn't expect him to get through that either. sOs on the other hand? That bracket wasn't that hard.

Feels weird calling this the super tournament after the first one was a giant 64 man tournament celebrating the open season format

I don't see any reason to balance whine here, as the lineup isn't Protoss dominated

At the current state, I can't really enjoy games that include Protoss that much, so I am pretty glad for a Terran dominated lineup.

Also interesting is that it's basically the same old "usual suspects" again and again (with Hush and Bunny the only uncommon players). Some new blood would really be needed. There are even quite a few tourneys nowadays in Korea, but I think there is a huge issue with the fact that each tourney gets a small amount of players, through basically the same overly fierce qualifiers.

Nope. The best you can get are 4 or so 20 second clips on JYP's twitter.

Terran was designed with a bigger skill cap, and this will continue to happen year after year. As players get better, terran become much better. I don't have other way to say it - bad design :\

Terran has the highest mechanical cap. That's a little different than what you're describing.

Classic lost to Hush, does that count as forfeiting?

Since when did Terran player became better then other player across time? The end of HOTS, the time when terran should have been domiting the game was almost perfecly balanced.

And there is a huge skill cap for both zerg and protoss, big enough that we will most probably never sees it for any races.

Lots of Terrans makes me happy from a viewer perspective at least.

More like there aren't enough sc2 players anymore :/.
Bunch of random KR players and walk-overs everywhere sadly.

Go ByuN I guess, do it Polt style.
