You're right, beating the second or third best terran and the best protoss in the same day is a complete lack of competition.

2nd or 3rd best Terran and best Protoss out of... how many active professional level Terran and Protosses?
Compared to earlier GSLs in a more competitive era.

And what about the prize pool? Are they trying nearly as hard anymore?

Why wouldn't they try as hard? It's still their sole source of income and their passion.

The lack of posts on TL is indicative of the decline of scene and the lack of controversy. Controversial threads have multiple posts from most the same people (and their pathetic alts lol).

I mean, recent GSLs have much less money in them compared to other tournies.
GSL and KR tournaments specifically are relatively less competitive.

Relative less competitive than past GSLs? Absolutely! Relatively less competitive than the rest of contemporary tournaments? No.
