Him and liquid in general have been in a slump so he didn't do so well in code S, however the whole week before his group matches he was streaming for 7hours at a time, which was his ladder practice, and then on top of that I am sure he had to play the oGs games internally witch are more practice to progamers than ladder. What really matters is in the booth thou. If he doesn't perform on stage, then he just won't cut the mustard. Also, just because you see HuK working his ass off for these tournaments. Don't discount the fact that the other competitors are most likely working just as hard (some cases harder). Also sometimes people play worse on the ladder if they know they will be vs'n that person in an up coming tournament. It's called 'not revealing your hand'. | ||

Rainbow is on his team but I'm not sure why he didn't pick rain. I think he felt better against ensnare because ensnare has extremely bad tvt and rain is a good cheeser so that could throw bomber off. | ||

You have to pick 1 guy that finished 3rd and one that finished 4th. | ||

I'm not sure why I completely forgot about what team they were on... but still, it doesn't seem like he even remotely picked the easiest 2 players to beat. Bomber had no trouble with WhiteRa, so I can imagine he would be able to take down HuK quite easily... but whatever. Obviously it is his choice, though I also have to admit I did forget Ensnare doesn't have the best TvT. | ||

Why? He's arguably the most creative Toss player in GSL history: - First to use double-forge build - The Great Wall of Hong-Un - First to use carriers (and won, to boot) - First to show power of proxy phoenix in PvT (peeled apart Jinro) - Went for a Mothership (first to do that in a PvT) against Nada and survived past the 15 minute mark Say what you will about the guy's flaws, but I'll miss him in Code S. | ||

I don't say that because i don't like him this is just because those 2 other guys seems to be better and deserve to be in code S as HonUn | ||

but yeah, I'm assuming not Tastosis since Artosis usually doesn't stream right before. Kind of disappointing : ( | ||
