Has that changed recently? Because as far as I know, TZ was considered the strongest race pairing in SC2.
Congratulations to Mouz, an expected result, but well done regardless.

TZ won almost every 2v2 in last season's cup, and formed almost 60 of the top 100 teams in Season 2 ladder worldwide. Please tell me how its not considered the top lineup? Incontrol was perfectly justified in saying that.

Also he is going off what his team mates have most likely told him. Axslav and Strife switched to TZ mid last season.

TZ isn't stronger than PZ or PT with a new map pool. Even more, TZ wasn't stronger than PZ on old maps, when PZ found counter to helions/slings few month ago.

Of course TZ is going to win every matchup when EVERY team in TZ...
The ladder results were mostly because of people abusing hellion/sling, which is still strong but by no means unbeatable.

Maybe you've heard of it. I think they are called liquid or someth. (unless you mean in the tournament lulz... in which case I still don't think by far but I do think they are the best)
you really think liquid has the stronger team lineup? that's surprising to me.
huk and ret could do some real damage with sheth stealing some games but I don't think haypro/tlo/tyler/jinro are in their best playing shape right now.
mouz destroyed the last EGMC and I'm sure they're going to go far again.

you couldnt pay me to watch this. Eg begs to be trolled with their wretched professionalism and inflated egos. This is not an opinion. I hate eg. (That is)

dignitas is a british team with more than half of its roster composed of swedish players?
|
Loved the last season. This is really fun to tune into when Ive got nothing going on or to listen to over the speakers in the background while I cook dinner. Thanks for sponsoring this event again for the community EG and Im glad your continuing with the 2v2s they make for an interesting highlight.

Theyr also a massive multi-gaming team. They are huge, far beyond just a sc2 team. The team as a whole has always been a haven for british squads

I think 2s is better now, more even.
In Season 2 there were a lot more split base maps where TZ is by far the strongest, hellion/ling being so mobile and whatnot. In a shared base situation the stakes are evened up quite a bit, and there are more shared base situations in Season 3, so the disparity is nullified (if not gone).

Who is casting today? Please let it be the God of Zerg :3

Well, EG will most likely win it all since Puma will win every single 1v1+ace, then they'll just have to win another match...

Last season you were always on top of updating the first post with scores and the line-up for the night. Now, not so much. What gives?

Are there gonna be VODs of this? I really want to watch the 2v2 game, TZ is supposed to be all powerful, but I guess Thorzain and Mana are just that much better than Catz and Drewbie.

Last season all VODs were uploaded to EG's youtube account. No idea what the time frame on that is, I watched all of those well after the fact.
If this is Day 2, who played in Day 1 does anyone know? And what were the results?
