The smaller image on TL's main page of the main image in the OP definitely looked like an Evangelion unit to me.

Also, calling MMA first SC2 bonjwa... I think he just might dominate 2012. ^__^

woah, don't even start with that shit.

Also, whats wrong with all the people saying TargA should've gotten a different summary? Fact is, he hasn't done anything in a big tournament yet and we gotta wait for him to do good - nobody's saying he's bad, just that he didn't have a real chance to prove his skills yet (and no, qualifying for NASL or w/e doesn't count when compared to the other players)

also, come on, he's Norwegian. He's only really there to check the whale harvest in advance.


I had a hearty lol I'm interested to see how well he does, really liked your MMA writeup btw. Guy is just getting too good, soon as I saw he was going to Kiev I just sighed

I'm going rogue and saying I like TargA and think he'll advance. So there, Wax!

Apart from the obvious (MMA being the hottest favourite)... I'm interested to see how Naniwa's doing, if he's on top of his game, he might have a good chance.

But, as always, may the best player win. gg.
Busy night, but there's always room for another... unless the servers are down.

Didn't realize there were so many protoss in this tournament. Looking forward to it just an eentsy bit less than I was before. A foreigner taking down MMA, however, would make my day.

It's a bit unfair to say that Grubby was "not ever seeming to have an answer" for Ret at Shoutcraft given that he beat him in groups.

For anyone looking for a wallpaper version of the Mothership in the header for this article, if you look up Glenn Rane you should be able to find the original piece. He's done a lot of the concept and production artwork for Blizzard games. The background pieces in the OP are completely changed from what was in the original artwork but the Mothership itself is the same with a slight modification here and there but nothing significant.

Hope that helps anyone looking for a wallpaper. <3

Almost awesome. Almost because there are way too many Protosses and I hate all matchups involving P.

Gogogo MMA, Kas and QXC!
There are no boundaries, that's the final conclusion.
