Cool tournament, the last map was a bit lackluster, but overall a great tournament. Wouldn't mind to have maybe Catz cast with Total Biscuit next time as he's crazy and Total Biscuit has the mouth to keep up with that.
Thanks for making this possible, but people should stop crying about the influece of luck in a absolutely luck based game mode.

yea but sometimes when its really unfair, its just borin and pointless
like the last game where you roll double HT infestor. No matter what the last unit is, unless the people you vs are retarded (which liquid arent) theres no way to win. Also nony getting collosus twice wasnt exactly fair, but its always fun to see 20 collosus rape 20 infestors before they get the chance to unburrow

Marauder, feedback, storm, fungal and neurals could have worked against our composition. We had Collosus, Zealots, Battlecruisers and Reapers. The thing that lost them the game the most was actually the map; all the paths are rather narrow. Had it been on Megaton or similar, flanks with fungal Collosus, neural BC and using Yamato or feedbacking them while storming/fungal on Reapers/Zealots could work out.


It didn't help that EG is full of people allergic to bee stings, either

i think they were burrowed but liquid had a crap ton of observers. EG did an amazing job of constantly fungaling them but liquid kept bringing more.

A bit disappointed there was absolutely no reward for not going to the losers bracket. A great event nevertheless, but EG being 1-0 up in the finals would have been enough.


Had that happened...........the outcome would have been the EXACT same.

anyone complaining about this tournament (Even if it's minor complaints) really needs to calm down. TB paid $1,000 of his own money to do this, IN ADDITION TO THIS, he also donated ALL of his ad revenue to charity. wtf have all of you negative nancy's ever done for the SC2 eSports community?

Please just say thanks to TB and then kindly stfu.

Would they? This is random monobattles, the outcome is very largely decided by pure luck. Having a 1-0 advantage would be a fair enough reward for making it to the finals without losing.

This is constructive criticism, if people just take what they're given without giving any feedback then nothing ever gets better. No-one's saying they're not thankful, and the only one who's getting angry here is yourself.

Funnily enough, it's also the map Blizzard chose to spotlight. I've actually considered having someone redesign the starting bases and ramps.

Toxic Slums would definitely have been worse, though, and that was one I chose to put up.

Actually thinking about it, 2 guys feeding the marauder one and the other rushing infestors.. yea, that should've been an easy win for them.

It's never an easy win when they are facing the might of bumblebee.
