Actually none of the ro8 ASL players are participating. They are busy preparing for that league so it is good we can have this league now instead of waiting until the ASL finishes. Why are you dissapointed? This is a small league, does TBLS have to dominate everything? If we are going to have healthy player pool you have to give more chances for the lesser known players. There are so much quality and diversity in style among these players, They put just as much effort as TLBS into bw, but most get much less in return. Lets cheer and support them! | ||

Pfft, speak for yourself. They need to be in all of them, till the end of time! I love the range of maps they have, minus FS. Might just be me but I haven't seen that desert tileset in forever. Excited for La Mancha, Match Point and Ground Zero. | ||

All I'm saying I guess is there will be an astericks on this tournament since no "super strong" player is in this tournament (you're also missing ZerO and EffOrt for example). Group D for group of Death as usual, and Group H is also hilarious because of how it has 3 semifinalists from ASL1 in it together so one of them is getting the stick haha. | ||

But is fine. Its just a minor tournament, not a major/premium. I am very happy to see Mini, Snow, Skyhigh and beast returning! | ||

The map pool for zvt is really awful ie Ground Zero, La Mancha, FS and you have some of the much lower tier zergs ie beast and zelot. (These are zergs that lose to other zerg's offrace terran ie killer and jd). Meanwhile, there are a ton of terrans who aren't exactly slouches in tvz either. | ||

I'm actually quite happy TBLS / other notables are missing, makes this tourney much more open and hopefully some of the others can establish themselves here. Also quite curious to see how Snow/Mini/Horang2 perform! Think Zergs besides Zero are gonna get rekt though | ||

With only 24 new players into the ASL2, this gives a chance for many more less known players to be seen and a chance for weaker players to show their skills. There are many many players in here who can win this and it's nice to see so many old names around. | ||

I agree in a way, I thought it would be a shame if we just stopped seeing some of the players in the Scene that might not quite be able to qualify for ASL. I think a tournament is basically a preview on who might be able to qualify for ASL 3. | ||

Guess PianO's not coming, either. Straight to a bo3 between Movie and HiyA. HiyA fights his way after considerable early aggression to win on Circuit Breaker. Seemed like Movie needs to get into the habit of adding Gates at new mains. | ||

Just reading Liquipedia it seems he's had quite some success in this post-KeSPa scene, in tournaments with higher payouts than this as well. Glad the Fishiking is doing well in any case. With no Proleague for A-level-but-not-quite-S-tier players to shine, it's nice to have them participate in these number of smaller events. And Hiya finishes the set 2-0 with constant pressure on La Mancha and 2-1 overall. | ||
