But ok, in the end we don't know how anyone of them will perform at the actual event - they're all capable to go full beast mode  | ||

I'm really confused by the zerg votes. Scarlett is cool and very good of course, but based on recent results she doesn't seem to be in top form right now. Same goes for snute. And even Elazer isn't as successful as Lambo lately who showed the most promising games in WCS Austin and Homestory Cup. But ok, in the end we don't know how anyone of them will perform at the actual event - they're all capable to go full beast mode This is the problem with community votes: it's a popularity contest and not based on actual form/results/skill. | ||

No doubt Snute and Elazer are both far more consistent than her, but in WCS vs The World, we've got a great 4 players already who are consistent (and Serral is both consistent and at an incredible peak), so I picked Scarlett to give her another chance for something like IEM Pyongchang. | ||

Scarlett also got into the Round of 8 at GSL, something that I don't think Elazer has done and definitely not Lambo. Don't forget that she beat Innovation along the way to get there. And this happened this year for Scarlett. If you're talking about the past, Scarlett schooled Polt at Red Bull Battle Grounds in 2014, and Polt was considered a top 5 Terran (including Koreans) back in 2014. She's just not consistent. But if Scarlett is playing her best, she can take games off the Koreans. She has a higher skill ceiling than both Elazer and Lambo. No offense to Elazer and Lambo, but I would like to see them make the Round of 8 in GSL (Elazer is my 2nd choice after Scarlett). And I would like to see them get into the Round of 8 of the GSL while beating Innovation and Zest on the way there (if you swap Elazer or Lambo in Scarlett's place in GSL Season 1, I don't think Elazer or Lambo can beat both Innovation and Zest in the "group of death" to get to the Round of 8). | ||

If you're basing Scarlett on the last 2 months, then yeah, she hasn't had great results recently. But if you are basing her on this year, she has had a great first half of the year. She won IEM PyeongChang and she made the Round of 8 at GSL. The Round of 8 at GSL is a nice accomplishment. It's the furthest that a foreigner has achieved for some time (I think the last time a foreigner got that far was Naniwa). I would like to see Elazer or Lambo make the Round of 8 at GSL. | ||

They triply shouldn't have the 5th highest prize pool of the year. nice reasoning mate, i still dont see the problem with having 2 of these a year. 4 invites based on wcs points + 4 votes is really nothing to get upset about. also every wcs stop, every gsl, wcs global finals, iem katowice & pyeongchang and wesg have a higher prizepool, so its rank ~12 in that regard, not 5. only stuff like super tournaments and hsc have less money on the line | ||
