anyone who thinks tournament will get more viewers from Brazil/Taiwan because of the additional votes is naive. this isn't even a popularity contest anymore - that was won by Scarlett among zergs which I won't comment further. this influx from Brazil turned entire voting into circus, it's not even about who's popular, but who knows people with more influence and bigger reach... and now World will send out 3 players - terran that is out of form, zerg that is out of form and protoss that is insane and will hardly show such performance again - but can't believe out of those three Has is the most reasonable vote... | ||

Can you really call it "support" if it's people who don't watch SC2 and will most likely not even tune in for the tournament anyway? | ||

I don't think Has and Scarlett are unreasonable choices. Has has a better WCS performance than any non-seeded Protoss except Mana who had the same result but I think Has is more likely to score an upset. Scarlett is the 2nd most succesful foreign Zerg this year without competition. Even though she's in a bit of a slump right now, no other Zerg has showed a strong enough performance to make me think he deserves it over her. The only unreasonable vote is Kelazhur. | ||

Has is from Taiwan and plays Taiwanese qualifiers, the China slot is for the winner of the GPL or whatever its called where only Chinese players can participate. WCS quals and stuff like that with regional qualifiers have been working like that for 2-3 years, if not even before that. | ||

They call it "Chinese Taipei" to cater to China but treat it as a separate WCS region | ||

I'm reminded of the 2016 All-Stars Hockey game. Here's a write up of the player who the fans voted in as sort of a troll vote: https://www.theplayerstribune.com/en-us/articles/a-guy-like-me Then, this happened: https://www.nhl.com/news/john-scott-all-star-mvp/c-278122638 The man rose to the occasion like no other. He absolutely put every one of his doubters in their place and reminded us all of why we have fan votes in the first place. He scored two goals in the championship game and was awarded the MVP. Bringing home a nice paycheck which helped a lot what with his pregnant wife. The point is, this tournament isn't over till it's over, and Kelazhur has a right to be able to show us he deserves to be there. | ||

Thats the problem, he has not the right to show us. If there would have been a qualifier and he won it, then. He gets votes just because he is brazilian, from people that dont even care about sc2, this is just a social media campaign in brazil from CSGO pro gamers, from the brazilian eSports community, people just click on the link, login with twitter, vote for him, thats it life goes on, they dont care about the tournament. Thats the sad truth and every sc2 fan should be sad about this, because this vote destroys the chances for the WORLD against GSL, to show the koreans what we can offer. So if you really care about SC2 and are excited about GSL against the WORLD you cant be happy about this. | ||
