 Sniping HT with Mutalisks? This is some really advanced play. Good for sAviOr!!! I can't wait till the VOD's get uploaded. I'm so glad to hear he won, and not just with an out-macro game, but with some Ling and Muta micro play. GJ Maestro. | ||

I feel a little sorry for Reach and Anytime, but someone has to be the loser : / At least I got all three votes correct today. /happy I've been wondering. Is it just me, or does Savior play way, way way better in special events than normal leagues? Or does it just seem that way because the opposition might be weaker? | ||

Savior has played, what 3 ZvP:s now as well, a matchup he finds quite easy. | ||

I partly agree on the point that the competition is weaker. Yes, Nada should be the only one to put up a fight because he is an active player (yes, I'm not yet counting Boxer, because he is a special case). But if you think back to last years Blizzcon or WWI for example Savior faced some tougher opponents and played well. So I guess there seems to be some truth behind the idea of Savior performing better at special events. | ||

It's unfortunate that Nal_rA wasn't on his game, he's still pretty awesome imo. | ||

Group A 3-0 BoxeR 2-1 YellOw 1-2 Anytime 1-2 Tossgirl 1-3 Reach Group B 3-0 sAviOr 3-0 NaDa 2-2 Nal_rA 1-3 Kingdom 0-4 iloveoov BoxeR v YellOw Anytime v Tossgirl sAviOr v NaDa If BoxeR wins and Anytime wins, YellOw and Anytime will tie at 2-2. YellOw won their game against one another, so theoretically he should advance, but they might have a tiebreaker [judging from Anytime's interview answers]. If BoxeR wins and Tossgirl wins, it is the same situation. If YellOw wins, regardless of the other game, then he and BoxeR advance, Kong as A1 and BoxeR as A2. Naturally, everyone should hope for a YellOw win as it is the safest way to put the two most interesting players into the next round. As for the other group, sAviOr and NaDa are advancing as predicted. It's just a question of who gets the first seed and who gets the second. Overall a BoxeR/YellOw/sAviOr/NaDa Ro4 is probably the objective 'best' outcome. So I hope that's what happens. | ||

I gotta say though that Saviors ZvP generally still seems to be quite excellent... thinking of special events, remember the Race Wars in which he destroyed Stork and Bisu.. that's at least no weak competition. Oh and pleaaaaaaaaaase yellow, beat boxer! | ||

Must have been really lucky considering I never spent more than 2 seconds for a vote and never looked at the line up / map... And also never remember who / which team I voted for [:D] | ||
