I mean im sure people have sick builds planned for tournament play that they don't want to release right now. They will obviously play their builds everyone knows about. I guess I just miss the drama of having games that have a real consequence. | ||

Hero is kind of ? in PvP but I doubt he's better than MC. Hero, Huk, and July have all been playing at a higher level recently. Huk has beaten MC before (Homestory Cup). If MC can lose to Monster, he can lose to July. And Hero is just a damn good player and knows MC very well. I wouldn't really say he is favored with his play as of late. Ryung is the only player at the level of Huk, Hero or July, but he is a TvT specialist and beating him in a TvP isn't that special. | ||

So you missed Stephano saying that he does not care if people watch his stream and see his strategies? Because there only like 5 standard ones anyway, there is not much to hide. At least not for a zerg. | ||

Assuming you're going to win the entire tournament is just foolish. A simple mismicro can lose you the championship game. Take your money when you can, especially for the Koreans. | ||

Not adding a reactor to his rax. 4:10 - Ryung throws down second CC while Ret getting speed and 2 queens. 4:40 - Ryung getting a starport and a tech lab on the rax. | ||

Is that how pro-gaming works? Is that how pros get ready for tournaments? Stop it, please. You're like the tenth person to make this ignorant statement (to say that this bracket means literally nothing) and it's annoying. Alive and MC just raped everyone in their brackets. That doesn't mean that they're going to automatically get roflstomped and *figured out*. | ||

Hero and Huk havent really been playing better overall, and certainly not in PvP because we never see that. Huk just lost to alive and stephano. lost in assembly groups. lost in IEM cologne groups. Hero lost to thorzain in quite a silly fasion. | ||
