So much pressure on you, and yet you seem so calm, so collected and so nice. Great at SC2, great at being a cool guy. Thumbs up for your life. <3<3<3 | ||

Some people are sore over the fact that he is being hailed as the new best foreigner, or perhaps even the best foreigner we've seen in some time, but maybe it's better to not look at that and just think about what he has done here - he played a pretty tough tournament featuring some of the biggest names in Korean sc2 and beat everyone in his path. Putting aside all the "best player" or "best race" stuff, this is just an incredible feat. Who cares if the games were all PvP and PvZ? There was a bracket and the people who won their matches progressed to the next stage - Alex kept his nerve and beat some top tier koreans and he won. He's the champion, and he deserves all the credit he gets for doing that. + Show Spoiler + Group stage, first match against Rogue, he handles the pressure well and crushes him easily. Winner's match against Zest, Alex retains his advantage well and keeps his cool against one of the most famous korean players. Against Pet, you think that he is surely on tilt after games 3 and 4, but he maintains his composure and wins the last game that looked potentially disastrous for him initially. Then we get to the series against Stats, who is known for having pretty damn good PvP. Even after going down 1-0, he plays to his strengths and wins. In the finals, he races to a 3-0 lead and you start to think... hmm, he is very likely to drop a game here. But no, it doesn't happen and he pulls through in that insane 30+ minute game. He showed some exceptional ability there. | ||

HE'S A LITERAL NEEB TASTELESS lol, very good Watching NoRegret's vlog made me think about how stressful it must be to be playing at a tournament like that. Just the rush of emotions that he must have felt along the way might have made him very nervous but he showed no signs of it at all on the stage. All that talk about choking in finals, choking on the live stage - I hope Alex now has the confidence in himself to post great results in future as well.
