I think he was probably referring to it taking 12 snipes to kill an ultra, while it's only 6 to kill a broodlord.
Not that it makes too much difference when you have that many ghosts out on the field.

Who are the live casters? And why arent these two allowed to cast directly at the event? The only live casters are french, Pomf & Thud.

Will Strelok or Axlav advance? Is it Head2Head or Map score first?
|
Is RO16 and RO8 going to be played today?

It appears that ESWC are not ranking people based on map scores which is retarded. Hence the tie break to determine placings.

Orly 2-1 Harpner that puts group 2 with Idra 1 and Orly and Cloud both at 3-2, Orly has 8-5 win loss, cloud 6-5, but Cloud did beat Orly. Does anyone know who exactly advances??

Ahh I thought it was less snipes than that, didn't realize it's actually twice as many. Definitely agree that at that point it wouldn't really matter

sjow wins it 2-1, its not a tiebreak, just a replay of groupstage. socke shouldve won his group by mapscore

they all beat each other 2-0
bigs 7-5 maps, syz and mana 6-4 :D Tiebreaker scenario if I understand correctly, because in the rules it says the map difference.

Shouldn't Bigs advance? He is 7-5 while Mana and Bigs are 6-4??
............

The only way to beat a turtle terran who has successfully splitted the map is through sheer multitasking . DarkForce should have dropped ling/roach/infestor non - stop at the main and fourth and if he could harass the fifth and sixth . His mistake was that he tried to play a slow chess game against ThorZain while he should have played bullet or blitz chess with him .

These are the rules guys: At the end of the group, the following criteria apply orderly to determine the distinct position of each participant: a) Higher number of points obtained in all the group matches; b) Higher number of points obtained in the group matches played among the remaining tied participants; c) Higher round difference obtained in the match played among the remaining tied participants; d) Higher round difference obtained in the group matches played among the remaining tied participants; e) Higher number of points obtained in tie-breaker matches played among the remaining tied participants (tie-breaker matches are organized specifically for the occasion); f) Higher score difference obtained in the tie-breaker matches; g) Steps C and D are applied again until no participants are tied anymore.

Um so Socke, Sjow and Lowely are all 4-1 and the all have one against one of the other. So how do they now play a tiebreak? Do all 3 play each other again and if they again win 1 each, they keep doing this till next week?
Edit: Well, like Fyzar said, they could going on till next week then.

Just to add to this, rather than 1-2 nydus we're talking 1-2 per mining base. Really good way to get back into the game without risking too much

Which doesn't make the most amount of sense because the rules are pretty straight forward. Though I'm not sure what "map difference" is supposed to mean.
