First game was fun, but he should've expected the gyrocopters. After that it was a total wreck, he redeemed himself in game 5 and 6 but it was too little too late. Dunno, maybe he wanted to try something different in a very hard matchup (maybe he thought he could never win playing standard ud vs hu), but after losing the first game he tilted completely until the fifth game. Welp gg anyway, it was a fun tourny, can't wait to see more of ToD organizing! Maybe throw an open qualifier next time

From EU I know ToD and Sonik stream from time to time
KR:
Sok (H), LawLiet (N), Check (NE), Focus (O), i'm not sure about this but I think So,in also streams, but I haven't seen him in a while. That's Twitch, Lyn (O) streams on Quanmin.tv and Moon (NE) streams on duyou. Chinese players I know nothing about

Edit: Forgot about Lucifer (UD), a Korean pro, and Syntoren (HU) German guy, plays w3Arena, both on Twitch.

This weekend & especially this month was huge for Warcraft! Looks like the near near future will be very quiet, but we have 2 big LANs coming in the next 2 months, so thats something to look forward to.

at least WFZ won faith cup with amazing games against Focus! Undeads are getting stronger and seemingly vs Orc is not the worst mu anymore, which would be big. They have complained about Ud vs Orc for 10 years

So guys, who in here are going to participate in the WCA American Qualifier? Would be awesome to see some oldschool names participate!

I think, it will be the first time KODOS participating in a international tournament

As someone who only really played custom games and doesn't know anything about wc3 I agree with both sides a bit. 120 playing like he did the first few games is a slap in the face to fans. On the other hand the human vs undead matchup does look insanely human favoured. The last game for example where he screws up in the start, slowly fights back with good play and then his lich gets intstant nuked and he loses.

I think 120 apologists should stop smoking whatever they are smoking and face the facts.

If winning a BO9 against human is so impossible as a UD , why did 120 pick maps he will suck on in fact why does he play UD in 1st place ? If im out to make money playing video games , ill go with the best race that can make me the money.

Man, he must be taking a beating on social media. Hopefully it's just him being a dumb kid and he never does anything like it again.

It's true that a BO9 as UD vs. HU is hard. It most definitely is. You just have to take a look at how easily 120 lost the last game; it literally happened in a matter of seconds and there's little he could do about it.

That being said, his behavior during all the other games was a joke. Not to mention this tournament was made possible by way of crowdfunding; it's the fans who wanted to see the tournament who made it happen. Playing the way he did was very disrespectful toward that effort.

I can't help but feel like someone like Life, an up-and-coming player who's shown to be very eager, would have gone all the way and given it his all in every single game. Same goes for Lyn, a seasoned pro. I sure hope 120 doesn't pull anything like this again.

The worst part is; I'm positive that as hard as it can be, 120 can absolutely beat TH000 in a straight UD vs. HU BO9. But for some reason he chose not to try.
