Like I said, I agree. If he qualified by his own merit that'd be fine. But there's no way he loses a popularity vote, and that's just unfair (especially given the person this impacts the most is, in fact, the reigning GSL champion). | ||

The same thing is going to happen with Zerg. I think it's pretty safe to assume that a lot of fans with short memories will vote for Dark even though he hasn't done anything to warrant the spot. | ||

Even though current Dark is not 2016 Dark, he is still a force to be reckoned with. And in this context, there is no other Zerg candidate that's clearly superior to him. (Unlike ByuN) | ||
