We all know the UK scene sucks but given this time last year we had one known player with a broken arm who couldn't play (Demuslim) and now we have two well established pro's (Demuslim and Bling) plus two very promising up and comers in Ziktomini who's looked great at this event and beat Bly and Stephano at Dreamhack and JonnyRecco who's got a 61% win rate on TLPD and so far taken series from Daisy and Phoenix.

So yeah we're kind of crappy, we know that, but we're certainly hugely improved from where we were a year ago and if JonnyRecco and Ziktomini can find themselves a well established team who'll send them to the UK tournaments hopefully they show the same improvement Bling did (and then don't blow it all being an esports celebrity instead of practicing).

In terms of nations I'd say we've pushed ourselves ahead of most countries in Europe except the big hitters of Sweden, France, Germany, Ukraine and Poland. We're probably better than Spain, Italy and Norway and fast closing the gap on Russia.


This.

I heard something about Recco and Dignitas but I'm not sure how true that is. Given how young he is I definitely think the future is looking good for UK Starcraft.


It would be great if Dignitas picked up JonnyRecco and Ziktomini. I feel like both players are capable of performing as well as a lot of foreigners right now if they're sent to tournaments and given opportunities.

Hopefully both players try and get themselves into the MLG Qualifier circuit because it's not actually that hard to get into an MLG Arena with a bit of luck. Plus I hope they both keep go to the next Dreamhack and try and qualify for the IEM's this year.

The biggest thing is that they both get themselves on an established team of the Dignitas, Quantic, Millenium, Mouz, Acer, AtN, Root level so they can get a lot more experience from playing in the major team leagues and getting sent to the major European events.

France vs UK in an all-kill format would heavily favour UK if they could force Stephano out, since UK has the ZvZ Bonjwa, ZIKTOMINI

Ziktomini has already been picked up by Western Wolves

I just have to say I love that host. Never seen him before or heard of him but he is the best host I've seen at a SC2 event yet.

He can't any more.

Regarding to RedEye's post from a couple of minutes ago, lower bracket winner will play for second or third place with the upper finals loser, so the best he could do would be second place.

Lol they must trust Tastosis very much if they think they can keep people watching with an hour long break.
I love Tastosis and I'm not sure if I can wait that long for the incoming "epic ZvZ".

France vs UK depends on if anyone can take out Stephano. There are currently only two players that have a shot at beating Stephano, Ziktomini and DeMusliM (less than Ziktomini probably). And if you get past Stephano, BlinG, DeMusliM are just marginally better than every other French player with the exception of maybe ToD.

You misread his post. The match between Demuslim vs. the loser of the Upper Bracket Final is called a playoff match, that loser gets third, and a Grand Final still occurs between the winner and the winner of the Upper Bracket Final.

Demuslim is champion of the lower bracket, whoever wins upper bracket is champion of the upper bracket, the loser of that is in the "playoffs"

It's lunch time, what do you expect them to do. It's nearly 1 here in the UK, and I'm off to grab some food before the final anyways, perfect time.

Netherlands and UK are equivalent I think. Grubby, Harstem, Ret vs. Demuslim, BlinG, JohnnyRecco?

And Germany ahead of Russia. TLO, HasuObs, Socke, Darkforce are very good.
