Couldn't resist to read some of the statements in the last "naniwa leaves xyz"-Topic... sad story, but its even worse to blame JYP for that loss.

Great IEM Games btw, enjoyed the whole day :>

I still don't get what TL authors have against MVP. For being the #1 or #2 most successful SC2 player in history and demonstrating it both today and 3 months ago by winning a GSL both while being severely injured, he sure doesn't get any credit in these articles. I mean it is almost insulting to him for you to claim "his mechanics have fallen behind". Just say "he is injured, so there is a question mark about which MVP is going to show up", and then you avoid insulting the skill level of one of the best, and you still convey your point of doubt.

Evil never wins.
I figured out the EG Curse. It was set in motion by Voodoo Shamans working for Millenium. Whenever EG aquires a player, Voodoo energies start slowly draining skill from the EG guy into an Millenium newcomer. Think about it!

Kas surprised me, I was thinking Feast could do it, he play very very close game, but was a little under the other each time. next time maybe.
Tomorrow's group should be fine.

now ; I'm more than disapointed by lot of small thing in this event.

in no order at all :

- Tasteless seams "off", Like he seams off in lot of event recently. It looks like he doesnt enjoy what he 's doing anymore, it looks like he don't know the game anymore, or the player. Artosis do the job, pro as usual, but tired.

- Other game presentation inbetween matches... ok, it's gamescon... why not after all. (but at least hire people who know what to do in front of a crowd.)

- not enough set are casted.... even wihtout commentary, i'd like to see some match live... every other event have multiple stream why not here?



Tasteless always casts like that he's fine, it seems like you barely watch Starcraft, you just don't lose your "Starcraft knowledge"

Not every match can be covered due to how many there are, if you want you can watch the other streams in another language which is the only way you can see the different matches other then the main stream.

Why is it that the phrase "lost his passion" comes up so much now ever since Jinro retired. Crank leaves SlayerS? Oh, he must've lost his passion with KR team. BoxeR goes back to SKT1? He must've lost his passion in SlayerS. HuK performing badly? Must've lost his passion. HerO doing poorly? Must've lost his passion. Please...
