It'd be easier if there was a ignore function because he posts so often you can't ignore his posts.

Yeah.. Snow and Effort really sucks, anyone who knows anything can see that.

So? That means we can't hope for it to be better than it is?

I wonder if the players enjoy playing for this seed or resent the games? It seems like there's less pressure to win, since they've already qualified, but how much benefit is a seed really? I don't know if I'd want to play in a tournament immediately after having qualified -- only one player is going to win, so the likelihood of ending on a loss is pretty high.

It would be easiest if he was just banned. People are banned for thousands of reasons, I dont see the problem with a ban for being obnoxious.

Well you can hope if you want to but I don't think that complaining about the other posters is the kind of thing that ups the quality of a thread.
And anyway, the thread is almost over and was never going to be good. I suspect at least 50% of the posts are people asking if the current terran is Idra.

Dear Great, you're not kwanro.

Uhh, that was close. Good thing he made those firebats.

Yeah because it's real hard to think every single player of a team is amazing and be right for a couple of them. Oh wait, it's not. Oh I forgot, he doesn't think Skyhigh is that great except for his "Flash-like TvT".
And by the way, I'm a huge CJ fan, and Effort and Snow are two of my favorite players. I can talk about how good they are in a way that pisses a lot less people off though.

I'm sure they're all tired and stuff but it's more practice and there's something to gain. The thing is offline so they aren't going to mar their professional records or anything.

Mutas came just out in time, too bad

I suspect I'm saying what a lot of people are thinking, but regardless, you're right, this isn't helping an already screwed thread. Sorry about that.

You skip out on the first part of the Ro36. If you're someone like Jaedong, I'd really, really want that position because it removes an additional risk of some random cheesing me out of the OSL.
Curiously, I wonder what players like Jaehoon feel. I think if they're not delusional, they would know that they have no chance against any of the Ro16 regulars. I actually do wonder how they, and a lot of other players, feel about playing these individual leagues (I assume they are forced to since Idra was forced to save his progamer status).

Fantastic play from Great. I really wasn't expecting him to do this well.
Sea wins.

Good day of osl prelim overall. Sad that Ra got knocked out, though.
