Ya I haven't followed Grubby much but he's definitely solid. You never see a Grubby game and see him make a real bad decision. He makes the right moves and wins games.


I definitely saw some really bad decision-making on Shakuras against a Terran last MLG (I think?), where he moved his whole sentry-heavy army single file past an MM ball, right outside the Terran's natural. But on the whole, he steadily eats up the ground between him and the other pros.


Not to mention vs. Stephano recently

Kinda hard to make good decisions playing Stephano PvZ, I imagine
He's really on-off whenever I watch him D;

Ret had to play two ZvZs after his great ZvP win :|

Great for Tefel though, showing that he's one of Europe's excellent up and coming players.


Tefel also beat Ret 2-1 in the qualifier so it is not completely unexpected. Looking forward to see how he peforms in the next game against Alicia/Ganzi.

He won't be flying to korea for a while. He is going to redbull, MLG Anaheim and DH while using the EG Lair as his home base for that time.

MLG, pull your head out of your asses. PPV, or free with commercials. Take your pick. MLG just lost ANY chance of me purchasing further PPV passes. What a pathetic business strategy.

Capitalism. Where fucking your customer is considered perfectly OK.

Its not about capitalism but MLG policy, which sucks by the way. A greedy company considering the amount of money they get and still only pays 10k for the winner, which is pretty low if we`re talking about other big tournaments that dont even charge


Other big tournaments don't fly in 20 Koreans for free.

No, they do.


Do you mean Dreamhack, which had a total of 5 Koreans, of which 3 were in Code B? Or Iron Squid, which flew in 4 Koreans? Or IEM WC, which had 10, of which only a few were in Code S?

Only IPL4 (coincided with GSTL finals) competes with MLG for foreign concentration of high-level Korean talent.

Rofl, dont say things you dont know.. Iron Squid had online fights, then the semi-finals would happen to an OFFLINE event, that is not even 0,1% related to koreans paying their trips or not. Please, dont talk stupidity.

IEM pays for their trips aswell, or gives them an amount of money which is more enough to pay, even though if u finish the last place.


You have to be joking... your original statement that other big tournaments DO fly in 20 Koreans for free is demonstrably false.

ya, Tefel just seem to have Ret's number, he just knows how to play against Ret for some odd reason. Not really that strange of a result.

I now expect to see some hilarious content from his time at the EG Lair.

It is not, IEM did the same (not the same amount as "20" as you say but you get the idea since it was more like 10), I dont even need to mention IPL and DH is more like a european tournament only, with few koreans and americans.
