he had sentries, but he missed every single forcefield. the build is 4-gate proof, but axlav wasn't. | ||

Because I know that he's not fast, he doesn't seem to have very smart/good builds, and his micro is not spectacular. Is he just solid all around, good game sense, things like that? So you're basing your look on his play off of two games (where he was far from his best)? Do you see a problem with this? | ||

Exactly. The idea is you keep pumping out sentries to hold off the four-gate but when you mis-micro it kind of defeats the purpose of the build. | ||

Mana might have been smth like the 2:1 favorite, but a TT1 victory was a good possibility as well. I think it has something to do with the other matchups. I don't know about pvp but imo Mana is a lot better than TT1 in pvz and pvt. The first thing that comes to mind is Manas performance in the last IEM in EU where he beat Puma 2-0 and Stephano 2-1. He dominated every series that wasn't pvp. But then again, I'm not really sure about TT1s skill level, it's been a while since I saw him doing something impressive. Maybe in the quarters. | ||

Random drawing 1a vs random player from 2b, 2c, or 2d 2a vs random player from 2a, 2c, or 2d etc. etc. Quarterfinal 1 will start in roughly 20 minutes. Group drawings and interviews and stuff will be on stage. (I think) | ||

They randomize them ,with the eception, that it is a group winner against a second-placed in the quarters and that players, who faced eachother in group-stage just can meet again in the finals/3rd-place-match. | ||
