On the topic of the groups, this round of 36 is shaping out to be one of the best in recent memory. So many great potential match-ups! There would be no problem imo if Romad had not written On October 06 2009 22:50 (paladin)roMAD wrote: However, some comments you made are really clueless. Recap is pretty long, so much time had been spent writing it right? It's the 1st news post by Shikyo too? While being in the same situation, who would care that later on, in the same post there is I dont want to offend anyone, i just noticed this trend of calling everyone bad just because he lost 6 or 12 games in proleague. They are still good players and if they make it through prelims then it's not just a fluke. ...? Until Hot_Bid interfered there was 0 guarantee to whatever Romad said... how many people reading those comments do know who he is? I had no idea >.< | ||

 Anyway, I think Romad's just pointing out that people are just way overestimating the difference in ability between well-known players and lesser A-teamers and B-teamers. Because we're talking about mostly teenagers here, mental aptitude is quite important when it comes to performing well on the big stage. But in the preliminaries, in an environment that's basically like team practice, it's much easier to perform your best. And in a low-pressure environment, anyone can win a Bo3 from anyone else. There's a reason why many big names consistently fail in the prelims. This OSL actually happens to be kind of unique because how few upsets there were. | ||
