Apparently some people are dumb enough to STILL be asking for it, so let's make things clear: Do NOT ask for re-streams, and do NOT post re-streams. Do not come here and muddle the thread by bitching about PPV. | ||

His bracket is like the ultimate bracket for him, gift from heaven. You're not kidding. He faced one korean, and it was in PvP. Huk has definitely had a lucky path so far, tomorrow will be the real test. | ||

I call that GM. =] Even Idra has said Koreans are just better, what do these people expect DRG to say? "We're just way better than the rest, they'll never catch up"? of course he'll be as you said GM about it | ||

Super similar to his MLG win where he was seeded way in, skipping a lot of the really hard Koreans. it's not similar to his MLG win he was in a group w/ MC, July, Hero and in the brackets he beat MKP, StC, and then MC in the finals | ||

Its never really a kill move. Hope that helps! | ||
