Put the first map is always set. And the first map for the finals is Xel'Naga Fortress for some reason. More info on their Reddit page. | ||

Result: couldn't start the group play until something like 9 pm local time (as oppose to 11 am local time). Decision: randomize seeds in group c (which all 4 players agreed to) and play out group d. IdrA also forfeited his remaining matches after getting 2-1ed by white-ra because he was tired/jetlagged. | ||

He's most probably going to get smashed by MC (and probably even by HerO before that). Yeah, he is so overrated... He only helps guys prepare for the GSL Code S Finals, helps MVP prepare for his most recent GSL match, won NASL not using the 1-1-1 once against MC when MC was arguably the best player in the world (where now he is not), beat MC again at IEM (even in a macro game!).

I know that HerO is more known for his PvZ but if you have seen his stream... well, he's just an amazing player that hasn't even reached his full potential yet. Plus, both him and MC practice on KR... I think they are both capable of holding the 1/1/1. No, he was in NA for a bit before and after MLG Raleigh, but went back to Korea. And the whole time he was in NA, he was practicing on KR (he helped TOP prepare for GSL Finals at the time too). And if Thorzain can beat Hero, so can Puma. And Puma's TvP is so much more than the 1-1-1. Its pretty damn annoying to see people shit on Puma because he will use the 1-1-1 (like every other Korean Terran) sometimes. If he was on Team Liquid and not EG, people would be all over him like they are Hero (who is very good). Puma has insane multitasking and his late game is down right scary. Remember who STC said he didn't want to face in his post game interview? He said Puma. Why? Cause he is fucking good. | ||

I think Idras first look said it was months ago and people never let it go. Ill be honest I figured it was zerg favorted as well until I saw the winrates for zerg were comparable to belshir beach and dual site. | ||

I don't care how useless you think this pool play is, if you go to the tournament you play the fucking games. I wish this would at least have some concequences but probably not... He was apparently sleeping on his keyboard before the his WhiteRa match. | ||

Not really... The only all in he does in TvP is the 1-1-1. He only used the 1-1-1 once in each series vs Hasu and vs JYP and didn't drop a game to either of them. | ||
