If he was planning on not using it, it would have been better to cancel it. Really, that got me tilted during the game. I saw the spire finish, all the overlords on the map, and I thought that this was so good for him. | ||

I know it's a huge investment and Rogue had a growing army. But he could have sniped so many overlords, thus preventing the drops.

Also, he didn't focus on other tech. He wasn't ready for the late game. Rogue, on the other hand, was getting infestors, and getting 3-3 for air way before he engaged soO. Even if soO made mutas, Rogue's hydras (3-3) plus infestors will wipe them out easily | ||

Even if soO made mutas, Rogue's hydras (3-3) plus infestors will wipe them out easily I think soO had a chance after the big battle where Rogue pushed into soO's base with BL/Corrupter/Viper/Hydra/Infestor. After the fight ended, soO had 6k/6k bank to remax with mass muta while Rogue didn't have much anti air. Even if Rogue remakes a bunch of Hydra/Infestor, soO could have bought some time by harrassing the shit out of Rogue's bases and also picking off stray hydras and infestors | ||

Having a week to practice against certain opponents there's still only 2 out of 8 non-Koreans who advance further. And we all saw what happened to Major in Ro4. Easy win for soO. | ||

Basing things purely on points earned doesn't make any sense whatsoever since Korea and the world play in different tournaments... | ||

The separation is a must nowadays anyway, but it has to be more based on the skill. 10:6 for Korea seems much more fair. It's just 2 spots taken away from foreigners and that sounds to me generous, even 12:4 would be fine, but also very harsh. With Korea locked away there's no way how to decide who qualifies and who doesn't purely based on points. Actually the best way would be a 12 set spots(8K+4F) and a tournament for the last 4 spots between top16 foreigners and top16 Koreans. Or top20 vs top12 because more Koreans got the set spot and Koreans have better chance of taking the spots anyway, this way some random foreigner hero can appear and save the galaxy. They would have a chance, we would have a tourney, top12 would get the preparation needed. There are many options but in the end it's all about money. Honestly - the best possible option(IMO) - if Blizzard gets enough money through microtransactions *cough* free to play *cough* instead of giving more money to top players how about we would get more players into the tourney? | ||

I think for the tournament until the Semi's it should be Bo5. The Semi's and the Grand Final should be Bo7 As for the #'s from each region that should be in the Playoffs, I also believe that they should take the Top 10 from Korea and the Top 6 from the WCS Circuit (and this is being generous to the WCS Circuit). | ||

Like Sylvester Stallone quoted "Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place, and I don't care how tough you are, it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't about how hard you hit. It's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward; how much you can take and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done!" soO is a star | ||
