the mildly annoying thing is there a prize for 3rd place and NONE for 4th. pray for the unlikely outcome of seeing sharp relegating zero back to choker status heh | ||

ZerO lost the base at seven but it doesn't matter too much. | ||

ZerO's muta switch hits hard again like versus Rush on Arcadia. | ||

ZerO will start feeling the pressure if he doesn't start tearing bases down. | ||

No he wasn't. If it wasn't for the muta switch he would have lost around that time already. The muta switch equalised it to the point that he could hang in there a little longer because it bought time where Sharp could do nothing but react. | ||

A series like this is a microcosm of why Effort > Zero, and why that will always be true no matter what day to day results look like, until Zero demonstrates much more mental strength in big games. Effort would've come into this series thinking "I'm pissed that I'm in the 3rd place match and I'm going to take it out on this amateur". Does anyone think Effort loses this series to Sharp? Certainly there's no chance Effort loses 3-0 (doesn't hurt that Effort pulled off the most stunning 0-2 to 3-2 comeback of all time). Zero's a great player, but just not a "winner" in the way that's necessary to win tournaments. To be clear, I like Zero as a player, and the harshness of this criticism is out of wanting to see him fulfill his potential as much as anything. | ||

![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/PHAWGQW.jpg) Here is little catch of Sharp's gear; Is that Logitech G1 , same as what Stork used I guess since they both were from Khan. Keyboard looks like typical Qsenn from shape but no angle for photo to see. ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/vJktKar.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/Rm36yBP.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/SnwYi1c.jpg) | ||
