So i'm good either the qualifies or not (and INno has to qualifies ofc) EDIT/ oh I forgot that all foreigners can compete in GSL and WCS events while koreans just have GSL. So I'll automaticaly cheer against foreigner for that one. Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't Koreans also have SSL, which isn't open to foreigners? So there's WCS for foreginers, SSL for Koreans, and GSL for everyone. If so, it sounds fair to me. In addition, if GSL ever gets to the point where ro4 is routinely all-foreigner (the way that WCS America / Europe used to be all-Korean ro4 all the time, if not ro8), they'll probably region lock GSL too. | ||

SSL is not only open to everyone but it's also not annouced yet for this year anyway. | ||

But I think that this kind of playstyle may allow you to steal a series here and there but is not solid enough to have success with it in the long run especially once players start studying you. In this context it means that she beat Inno in this one series but doesn't say much about if she has the skill to compete with the top players in the long run. | ||

For example, not counting on enemy's ability to start cheese early aggression build and just build 3 hatcheries with queens and drones by 2,30min for yourself is against any kind of common sense but thats what exactly is happening in TOP TOP TOP finals between the best players out there. | ||
