Infact Artist is probably better than the STC if you've watch both their streams. Hero is so mechanically good and strategically smart that ive only seen him die to cheese or when he attempts to cheese. Even Thorzain said after he beat select that his only fear is playing hero again because the people expect him to beat Hero since he did it before but he says hero is so damn good that the only reason he beat hero before was because everything went his way. Kinda this, people tend to tunnelvision alot when X player beats Y player in a Bo3 | ||

And I think I will be watching only starting from White-Ra... To enjoy games mostly I need to be cheering for someone. Edit: Oh, his opponent is Slush... Nah, don't want that. Then I'll watch Sheth vs MMA instead of it, I think. | ||

Hero got randomized last I believe and that's why hes paired with PuMa | ||

Ez for him unfortunately. You remember, he's in his heaaddd | ||

Always a chance that upsets happen, and even then the seedings only help you out for your first round match. I feel like pool play is honestly a huge waste of time when no one gets eliminated in this format. | ||

That's how Starcraft tournaments ALWAYS worked for years. IPL took 2 days of event to basically arrive to the same point... may as well have started out with this. | ||
