They scrapped it because they couldn't stand the thought of soO winning something.

I just disagree with the runner up of the player of the year, 2 Starleagues > 3 weekender (and Blizzcon is not a great indicator since Elazer and Major went in semis, can't see that happen or SSL) But very awesome read, you TL people rocks | ||

Rogue was the best player of the last 3 months perhaps, but the rest of the year in Korea was very clearly Innovation's. At no point this year was he not the odds on favorite to win basically any tournament he was in, and when he was winning he was doing in dominating fashion. Rogue had a stellar year no doubt, but Innovation's was still better. | ||

Maybe Stats over Rogue as Runner-up for the best player but both choices seem reasonable (and I'm biased). Might go with Dark over alive as the most entertaining player, he had many great series (losing a lot of those, a bit like classic last year). | ||

If GSL is so superior the gold standard so to speak then a GSL champ should have won Blizzon. None of them did. Wtf kind of comment is this? The fact that Rogue won blizzcon and has never got past GSL ro8 is evidence that GSL is the higher level event.... By any objective measure, other than prize money, GSL is better. More competition, more prep time between matches, bo7 for semis, no issues with jetlag, players qualify based on current form instead of results from tournaments 6 months ago etc Like I said in the other comment, half the players at blizzcon couldn't even make GSL ro16. That alone makes it a weaker competition. | ||
