They did the Australia & Oceania events back to back for logistical reasons! I still don't understand why those places are called 'seeds'. It's a bit misleading when you look at the bracket set up. Moonglade vs PiG 2nd round Both NZ on the same side of the bracket Looks like a random generated bracket. Not a seeded one. | ||

Not a seeded one. because they are seeds. just like how Thorzain/SortOf/Seiplo won seeds to WCS Europe championships from WCS Sweden. Works the same way. Probably was a random bracket too | ||

Wouldn't the Swedish people be disappointed to see Thorzain knock out SortOf/Seiplo or any combination of those in the first round? Or even the second? It just seems poorly organised in that regard. | ||

Seed Moonglade and pig as #1-4 along with NZ guys (doesnt really matter who is 1,2,3,4 as long as pig/glade and light/jazbas get opposite sides of the bracket ie glade/pig as 1/2 or light/jazbas as 1/2). Then the other 4 seed 5-6 and 7-8 based on placing yesterday. Really easy fix. The same should be done in the Europe WCS too to avoid knocking each other out in rounds 1-2 [ie people from the same qualifier] | ||

Seriously he makes Clutch look like an 90yr old guy. Getting names of teams and players wrong. Having ZERO real emotion. That half ass loud voice he does does not equate to excitement. MLG needs to hire this guy and send Clutch on his way man. I really dislike people being a part of our scene who don't actually give half a damn. Not only being a part but profiting from it. Its just grimey. | ||
