So WaxAngel... 80% of TL doesn't watch GSL?

I think 80% of TL just watched July 2-0 HongUn.

Words. Eaten.

Prepare for the backlash of dissing your own communities opinions and then being literally as wrong as possible about it... I voted Hongun but I would never call out someones knowledge for having picked July... Less aggressive wording would really help these GSL and GSTL predictions

I vote MORE aggressive wording, this is the funnest part of the week coming back to the prediction posts just to see how many times the writer put their foot in their mouth.

Yeah, you look a little bit silly now. July beating HongUn was more than perfectly reasonable prediction.

The funniest part is. He actually changed his article to be slightly less offensive sometime right before the GSL this morning.

Original quote "Sigh, 80% of TL doesn't actually watch GSL."

Edited quote "Sigh, 80% of TL doesn't watch enough GSL."

Yeah, insults a whole communities opinion and then changes it right before the matches for some reason. :/

It is great to see how the actual matchups turned out to be rather surprising in turn for what the preview presented :D

Waxangel, your predictions were sound, but failed to account for HongUn being HongUn.

Recent series of HongUn:
Beat Moon, Lose to Revival, Beat Zenio, Beat MC, Lose to BesTea, Lose to July.

Can you see the pattern here? I can't. Under most circumstances, you could say 'if you're certain HongUn will win/lose, pick the opposite.' You can't even do that. He lost to BesTea and beat Moon. That was expected. He's not even predictably unpredictable.

HongUn, DESTROYER OF TOTOS.

Why would you go to the thread discussing the ro16 games AFTER the games were played WITHOUT watching the games?

So, when July roflstomps HongUn, what's Waxangel gonna say?

I don't mind being called wrong, but that was really snide, especially for predictions, especially when July's ZvP is better than HongUn's PvZ.


I could have lived with 60:40, 80:20 made me laugh

LMAO! Who said that I didn't watch the games? You are so ignorant sir, all I did was trying to address a common mistake that people make. Just remember, there are fellow TL'ers who haven't watched the games yet and who would like the results not to be spoiled for them. Think further than your nose.

And this thread is a preview btw for your info lol.

Maybe you're the ignorant one for assuming he was talking to you and not making a generalization. Yes, this is a Preview thread, but the games are over and if you didn't watch the games talked about but scroll to the end of the comments on a Preview thread then you kind of deserve to be spoiled. You may also want to slow your roll and stop being so defensive. World doesn't revolve around you. Just some advice.

Yeah... I'm pretty sure the guy that wrote this doesn't actually watch GSL (or pay attention much), which is the funny thing. HongUn has had that hand injury recently, had been thinking about quitting, and just simply hasn't looked too impressive in his games - specially PvZ
