Well who cares about backho? The guy obviously REALLY didnt wanna play this OSL, first he tried his Zizi yo strategy to get out of it, when that failed he threw himself down some stairs or whatever it was he did to injure his back.

On a side note stork almost stole an MSL in the same way, after savior had eliminated him.

and Bisu will win this OSL ez

I know this is meant to be a joke (I hope to god)

theres not too much to add about Backho imo, and there are solid players ready to kill someone for that spot.

That wasn't funny.

Yeah I feel pretty bad for Backho. A lot of people think he's a really terrible player but I don't think that's the case. I think he's much better than Rock. He has a pretty good PvP, and is a pretty creative player in terms of using good proxy builds. His PvT and PvZ are not the best, but I've always enjoyed watching him play.

Lighten up, its not like the man is dead. Forfeits because of injuries happens in every other sport, whats the big deal if a BW player have to take some time off from an injury?

IMO the format will probably be three groups of four, single elimination. The 2-0 winner from each group plays in a OSL tiebreaker format until one of the three of them goes 2-0.

objectivly Firefist should have gotten it since the only reason he didn't get into the round of 16 instead of Backho was he took the moral high ground when Backho GGed early. So he legitimatly made the Ro 16 (even if it was just a fluke), and is going to have to play a tournement he will likely lose for a spot that is legitimatly his.

Maybe I should edit the first post, but I re-read wfbrood again, and it seems that the info about a 12 man tournament is not confirmed. They mention it is probably going to be the case, but details will be announced on 1/23.

That was game two, and backho was not only up 1-0, but raping him.

I doubt game 3 would have been any different.


....So by that logic Backho would forfeit game 3 the same way. I guess I'm with you on that one. Zizi yO

Poor Backho =( I feel really bad for him. If I had to pick someone to take his spot, it would be Magma. So, Backho recovering or Magma hwaiting!

if bisu makes it there are still hope for fantasy OSL.
but my lawl vote goes to Rock.

12 guys for 1 spot, this is almost like OSC again.
and Mind will deny Bisu.
