Watch how you approach the topic of match fixing. You can speculate, saying "I'm not so sure about the finals, something doesn't sit right with me," but if you are going to outright accuse players of match fixing you need something more than your word.
TL takes match fixing/abuse seriously and as such there is a burden a proof when you are accusing players.

Any particularly worth catching?
I only skimmed the end of games on GOM to see whether anything might be worth checking:
Line vs TOP might be worth watching, seemed to have been a decent macro affair
Hero vs Annyeong is decided by a 2 base timing
Line vs Annyeong seemed to be a pretty quickly decided ZvZ
Hero vs TOP ended with multiple thors and banshees. Could be interesting but judging by the supply difference going into the final engagement I suspect early shenanigans
Line vs Hero might be good, looks like it probably didn't get too far past a three base zerg but there's something pretty about a flood of zerglings sweeping over a protoss base
Annyeong vs TOP was decided by an early bust.
Thanks for this. <3
Might catch Line vs TOP and/or HerO vs TOP.
I'm pretty sure the Line vs HerO series started off with a nydus all-in that crippled HerO. Only managed to catch the end of the series, which turned out to be heartbreaking.

So tense the entire time. Having played mage and priest in arena (not glad-level tho ) I can tell you actually being in those situations is 1000x more intense than anything I've ever experienced in SC2 - because you have so much to keep track of - the positioning, cooldowns, mana level and health level of 6 people simultaneously - to be able to predict the opponent teams moves in advance and be one step ahead when every global cooldown counts (~1.5sec) can get overwhelming.
ROFL..must be a troll
ITT: His opinion is different than mine, he must be a troll
Having played to glad level, there are less things to keep track of in wow than sc2. SC2 is infinitely harder and he hasn't even played to glad level? He probably mashes his keyboards over and over again....
This is fundamentally illogical. As anything that is easier for you is easier for your opponent as well. Game theory.
Erm what? Difficulty of the medium is a factor ... Imagine a game of pressing one button once per second and the lower average variance from the second after say a minute wins Fair for both players? Yes. Easy? Extremely. Easier than a game which requires one of six buttons to be pressed? Yes.

3 times the size since all of this, plus another auditorium that is twice the size was filled.
