Grubby is such a boss damn.


Is Grubby doing something atm that im not aware of? :O

Being a boss it seems, you didn't know he was awesome yet?


I know this, but the sudden Grubby love in the threat made it seem like he was playing a hidden game or doing an interview etc

Haha no I just saw that if he beats Thorzain he could end 2nd in the group depending on how the tie-breakers are done.

Tiebeakers are stupid head-to-head before overall map score, so stupid, so grubby will most likely be 3rd.

That would be dumb. Map score shows who did the best overall if they have the same win/loss, which is the point of group play.

Tell MLG that.

So if Oz beats DRG then Socke is top of the group. If Oz loses Socke is second. I think?

Shame Oz wont beat DRG

Great read by Socke. With all those immortals and the colossus he knew that Sase probably didn't have many observers.

Isnt it odd that the Number one ranked player on TLPD who also happens to be the best foreigner isnt having ALL his games streamed. We missed out on his match v Alicia and now also JYP. I get people want to see other players too and thats great but there are 4 streams ffs.

Can you imagine a Tennis Grand Slam tv programme and Nadal, Djokovic or Federer's match not being aired. Some poor decisions imho...Was same with the Arenas.

Don't want oversaturation of Stephano before pool play ends most likely. Pretty sure everyone could have predicted the outcome of Alicia, Rain, and JYP. JYP is probably the only one worth casting because he has decent vZ (but Stephano also has amazing vP...)


Understandable, but Stephano is the player with the largest stream base, and once he leaves Pool play he has two series before he leaves the tournament. One of those is going to be vs. MKP. You think Stephano is going to receive a lot of coverage tomorrow?

Barring a huge upset, they're going to end up with Korean vs. Korean semis and finals. Why not show Stephano while you're still able to?

Stephano has already secured his group win, putting him in the winners semi finals, which always get broadcast on the red stream. We will be seeing a lot of Stephano.


Yeah, which makes his last series vs. JYP the highlight of this entire day for Stephano.

MLG understands that you have to build up stories to have people cheering for players, don't they? Because the SC 2 crowd is not cheering and I think I know why.

Do you really think a crowd would be more excited to see Stephano roll over average koreans multiple times? That's not building a story at all. That's just showing a better foreigner defeat a korean. We saw Stephano win in 3 games yesterday, defeating the only threat to him that's enough to show his dominance until we leave pool play.


You have to build up a player before you destroy him.

I think MKP is going to destroy Stephano, unfortunately. Not building him up before that is going to result in a one-sided series of MKP stomping Stephano and that doesn't result in a story - it results in a same old sigh from the crowd.

Socke is getting better coverage this tournament, and I'm glad for that. But Stephano is a crowd favorite when he plays, when he interviews, etc. and MLG not putting him on is costing them viewers.

Having said that, the big hype this MLG is the Kespa invitational. I think that's going to bring out a lot of viewers.

Anyone with Premium access, how's Socke's second game going? Decent or badly?

Just killed all of Sase's buildings. Took game 2.


Please LR game 3! Would be awesome if you or someone else could do it!

Guess I'll do it...never LR'd before so it may be rough but if I'm the only one regularly posting with premium access...
lol


Its easier than it looks

Just ignore any advice SeeKeR gives you and you'll be fine

Holy shit if Socke wins this he's first in his group. That'd be so awesome!

Nice obs snipe + DTs in the last game, that was his only chance to still win the game and he pulled it off.

It is, they will both be tied in maps won. Which is why it goes to head to head lol.

Symbol is 7-5, Grubby is already 6-5 with potential to go 8-5.
