You could tell he was on Serral's level mechanically, he just doesn't have the experience yet. Serral was able to prepare and strategize in ways Reynor couldn't handle.

With a little more time I think Reynor will surpass him, as long as he works hard.

I think he has been unlucky with the bracket draw. If he was on the other half he could have made it to the top4 easly, if you think that he had already beat Nerchio and ShoWTimE at the same tournament during the group stage. He will show his full potential very soon.

The bracket draw only depends on WCS points. As a newbie he was gonna meet Serral in Ro8 for sure. He has better chance in Montreal.

I don't get it why Reynor can't play wcs tourney earlier this year, while Clem was already on the stage. Clem is even younger.

edit: all right, I thought clem was born in August. my bad

Reynor has already 600 points (630 at least if we count the challenger).
Its more then Stephano, Drogo, Namshar, Clem, Soul and many others that get to the challenger. So even though he is likely to get into a group with Serral (among those who qualified through the ladder he has the least points) he'll get fine players as the 2 others in his group. And if he advances he won't meet Serral in the RO8, which will be the qualification match for Montreal.

Most likely, may depend on which groups will he get (in the challenger and in GSL).
It will also be about what he cares more of. If he cares more about GSL he will be there training and having only the ability to play the challenger from KR. If he cares about increasing by a bit his chances of getting into the WCS finals then if he gets the right groups he can play it from EU and be in KR only for his GSL group.

I hope he chooses GSL, as the challenger won't be that much of a difference when it comes to his chances in getting to the WCS finals. He'll have to win Montreal, and if he gets some points from the challenger there is a scenario where being the finalist in Montreal can be enough, but its not up to him as he will need a lot of stuff to come together so that it will be enough, and if he will be in the Montreal finals I think he should aim to win it, and not stop there.

Good games tonight even though they didn't ultimately go the way we'd like. I'm just gonna call it right now though, Reynor is winning GSL 2019. This kid is SO GOOD at only 16 years old, the non-Serral WCS players are lucky he wasn't allowed to compete the first half of this year.
