I wouldn't be suprised if we saw rA, Xellos, DarkElf, and Rock retire / try to join ACE soon

after 6-7 years as a pro gamer if all somebody can say in your defence is that your a pretty solid 2v2 gamer... then I guess all of those 8-10 hour days with no life/drugs/money/girls/education and fame really did pay off.....

that list should be broken into halfs Ace|retire ....
on a side note why does ace keep accepting below par pro gamers? .... to keep the team alive don't they need to actually win a couple games? ...I guess I'm saying why don't they only take the cream of the has-been crop?

Look @ Reach, he's in the same boat 
At least Rock can qualify for the OSL!

can someone give me the fomos link to the live updates? or tell me how to get there?
|
any idea who's playing now on the stream?
|
Lol, almost every favorite of each group going down. Whats up with all the big names? Thank god some of them were already seeded for the next phase in the other individual league, cause if not, it seems like we would have 90% new faces in the next OSL/MSL.
Everyone who got a BYE card got eliminated. This is so lol.
|
This is even worse than the OSL prelims. Only 3 established pros(meaning minimum quarterfinals in an individual league) advanced thus far; Stork, BackHo and Iris. And tons of the players advancing are known as Darkelfesque players.

Its either HoGiL vs Crank /or/ Thezerg vs Endless

ok 1 line response is "Hasn't reach won an osl?"
actual response..
Reach spent a year at the very top protoss food chain. Won championships. Made money with endorsements. Banged h.o.t-forever. He might not be the champion of old by his style of PvT and his macro reinvented toss back in the darkages of terran rape.
See I could defend a player I never really rooted for because he's worth defending .... why are you defending rock?

I'm not defending Rock at all, but if you compare the two players, Reach hasn't been able to compete in competitive 1v1 play for a long while. When was the last time you saw him in an OSL or MBC? Look at his proleague record, he isn't worthy of a 1v1 spot anymore, this has been the case for a while now. You could say the same for Rock who hasn't played much 1v1 in this season's proleague, but still qualified for the OSL and did reasonable okay!
I agree Reach is the most accomplished player of the two, with the amount of titles he's won etc But look closely to the last two years or so, I would definetely say Rock has been the better player!
Who cares if he lost in the prelims of MSL! A lot of good players haven't qualified! Give credit to maGma, his ZvP is no slouch!
