"Shit cost money" - Tyler

Not that the Arena was shit, the shit is the costs to put on a tournament like this. Out of context this could be taken the wrong way. Felt I needed to clarify the shit analogy so as to not get shit about it later.

Nowadays Mvp is way stronger than Nestea right now, and more consistent, so it's more impressive to beat him, despite him suffering 'marathonic tournaments' more thanks to his cts.

Even more, Nestea's weakest matchup is ZvT, Mvp's best matchup is TvZ. Ret beating Mvp was the biggest upset no doubt, not only thanks to the skill gap, but because Mvp isn't one of those players who makes sudden blunders a là ZergBong.

I guess Nestea v. Demuslim is kind of a bigger upset because it was one of the first matches played in the tournament? Nestea defeated from the start by a guy who made it to MLG by the skin of his teeth.

That being said, if we're comparing pure feats of strength here, the biggest upset to me is Bling v. Polt. Polt didn't play "bad", and yet Bling crushed him. I hadn't seen such one-sided games in favor of a (pretty much unproven) foreigner against a top Korean since TSL 3. And you couldn't even blame it on the lag.

Anyone calling DeMusliM over Nestea an upset haven't been watching Demu stream... his control is so insane, there are few top tier koreans who are that good I think.

I think that "Biggest Upset Today" was MKP winning DRG.

I don't want to take anything away from DeMusliM. But his win rate on the NA ladder is only 70%. That's good. But that doesn't make you worthy of being placed on equal foot with someone like Nestea. DeMuslim's play was inspired (in game 1 and 3 anyway), but Nestea didn't bring his A game, far from that.
For reference, oGsVines has a winrate of 80% on NA, and 63% on KR.
