via @MrMLGAdam Looks like Huk and Scarlett are set to meet early on, AGAIN (2nd round). And Huk has to play Ostojiy 1st round (which also means Ostojiy and Scarlett, our top 2 WCS Canada finalists, may meet in Round 2). Oh well -at least it's a double elim tournament  | ||

I totally agree if Idra playing decent at all he should make the semis without a problem. I mean the bottom has Major, Illusion, Huk, Scarlett, Suppy and Ostojiy. Those are like the 6 out of the top 8 there! EDIT: Though it isn't really WCS fault because some great players didn't perform well in the nationals. The seeds are generally correct given their placings in the nationals. | ||

You say he should have because it would work out, but being in his position, he made the right choice. He didn't know if there were mutas hiding somewhere, so if he flew his buildings to the corner and there were mutas he insta-loses. | ||

Yeah we can say its NA, that Major made mistakes and that it should've been at least a draw, but at the end it was an amazing game to watch and an amazing game played by Fitzy to win when behind. | ||

Ghosts don't have the range. They would have been killed if he tried to snipe the Infestors or the Queens. EMP them? Probably the better of the two, but he still has to find a way to deal with the BL's and Ultras. It takes a lot of Ghosts to snipe BL's and Ultras now. Snipe is non-viable unless its directly countering the Infestors. But the range is so gosu short that even without detection a Fungal would have shut it down. Regarding HotS, with the new "cool down" mechanic that Ghost will have I guaranty Ghosts will be a thing of the past. However, I haven't heard any changes about the Ghosts. I don't know what the current state of them are. It could have changed. Now besides the Reaper, the Ghost is the most dismantled unit in the game. | ||

In a 200 200 fight, phoenixes are dead weight. I'm talking about scouting where the army is. That's what Huk needed vision of. Once he lost his phoenixes, he had no sight, and thus died by poking out. I'm saying that he had no transition for his scouting in the game. No hallucinations, o speed obs, no speed warp prisms. All of those things give you army awareness of the enemy. Huk had none of that once the phoenixes died. | ||

I really hope tough that some good players appear, so the NA fans can have local favourites in the tournaments. | ||

Another shitty poster welcoming him/herself to TL woot! You obviously have no clue about e-sports or the format of the WCS tournament . . . But don't worry, we'll help you out here as you're new: 1. WCS is a Blizzard tournament, a multi-billion dollar company that has plenty of resources to support it's own product. 2. WCS is a world-wide tournament that gives players from every region an equal chance to participate in the final event. 3. Blizzard has decided to support a relatively large prize pool for each region which does nothing but help up-and-coming players and the scene by infusing cash into less well-known talent and organizations. 4. How you could possibly percieve this is bad and/or negative in any way reveals that you are either a troll or ignorant or <12 years old or all of the above. Welcome to Team Liquid. | ||

Why? It's a fair comment. The skill level is low: bad unit control and positioning, mediocre macro, average map control for most players, horrible engagements and the list goes on. All the money poured into the NA scene has achieved nothing. The NA scene is not competitive at all. For a long time, people said that money was needed to nurture a new good players as they had to make a living. I'm starting to think the contrary. Too much money is subsidizing bad players that would get purged on a more competitive market (and it's not that bad, life goes on and they will go to the uni again). Edit: Wrote "least" instead of "list", funny lapsus i think. | ||

High prizepool isn't just for rewarding skill it's also PR for the young gamers that are wondering if it's worth laying down the time needed to become really good. Thanks to these (and hopefully other) high prizepools we could see an upsurge in talented players from NA, which would only benefit the SC scene as a whole. | ||

Again ignorance. Who are you to determine what "too much money" equals in the SC2 scene? Are you trying to become a professional player and suffering from financial difficulty or are you just another arrogant fan on the sidelines stuffing your face with cheetos? I think the latter is more likely. Going around bitching and moaning to anyone in any occupation that said person is making too much money when it's not your money and has nothing to do with you would earn you a justified punch in your face. Maybe you should go try it sometime. . . .I mean, walk into a business and start crying: "waaa you all earn to much money waaa europeans deserve more than you waaa" and see what happens. | ||

Thanks to these (and hopefully other) high prizepools we could see an upsurge in talented players from NA, which would only benefit the SC scene as a whole. Must be an evidence of incapacity for the NA "pros" to see that this money is used for PR instead of rewarding their skill. | ||

Are you trying to become a professional player or just another arrogant fan on the sidelines stuffing your face with cheetos? I think the latter is more likely. Going around bitching and moaning to anyone in any occupation that said person is making too much money when it's not your money and has nothing to do with you would earn you a justified punch in your face. Maybe you should go try it sometime. . . .I mean, walk into a business and start crying: "waaa you all earn to much money waaa" and see what happens. why feed him? | ||

Who cares how they feel? This is business, it isn't meant to be nice for everyone. All these European players should be happy that NA players get some money from somewhere, because it increases the overall market for everyone, including them. Ask yourself if Stephano would've been as known without IPL, NASL and MLG. | ||

It's easy to dominate when you're so much better than your opponent and people know so little about you because you keep your smurfs so well hidden plus don't play in other tournaments all the time. | ||

Just to make it perfectly clear in case you've missed it: The winners of WCS Canada and WCS USA got seeds directly into the world championship. However, they still get to play the North American finals for the prize money. 7 spots are given away at the North American finals, but if the two players who already got seeded get into the top 7, the 7 seeds are extended to the top 9, so there will be extra matches to determine who will be number 9 That's the whole story. | ||

He played like a boss versus illusion and I think that if he can get past the ZvP (which is his weakest matchup) he can take the whole thing. Major, however, is also a monster. I just hope one of those two wins! No one can touch scarlet she is level above everyone else | ||

Not a theory. I'm at the event, and friends with Suppy. Him and team EG were shown the WCS bracket 2 hours before the event started, while everyone else didn't know their opponent until 10-15 minutes before it began. As for whining, Illusion and others were annoyed too. | ||

And I doubt he could predict his loser bracket opponents. I don't see how he could profit from seeing the bracket there. (Suppy could with difficult first round opponents) | ||

It can't completely explain why Idra has done well. In fact, the biggest advantage is probably psychological. Still, it is unfair, and it shouldn't happen. Everyone above me seems to be pointing out that it's not a tremendous deal, and not mentioning that it's undoubtedly unfair and should never happen. Frankly, you should be thanked for bringing it up. | ||

Considering MLG isn't very organized (we still having issues with the open bracket?), it's more like the information is available but not easily visible. Maybe you should've asked, goswser. | ||

And me and idra are not chums, but that isn't the point and has nothing to do with what I am saying. Obviously it isn't game changing against Stalife, but that isn't the point. My other post was just taking a shot at idra by the way. | ||

Also I probably didn't reveal what I said in the best way. I've had a long day and after it dislike idra more than before. So sorry for taking a shot at him, I apologize. | ||

Honestly I have no idea why. Thanks a bunch for the information. | ||

Your intuition is terrible. No it was not available, and no, me asking wouldn't have told me anything If your intuition was so good why do you even need to see the bracket, since, clearly, you're psychic and know the responses of individuals by not asking at all. Quit whining. | ||

Him and team EG were shown the WCS bracket 2 hours before the event started, while everyone else didn't know their opponent until 10-15 minutes before it began. As for whining, Illusion and others were annoyed too. EG players knew the WCS bracket/opponent at least day before event. Players were complaining about it the night before the tourney. according to sirscoots logic on twitter all you had to do was ask a official for your opponent. | ||

So if you know officials of a event you're allowed to get a advantage a day early over lesser known teams/players who maybe don't have the same connections to track down a official? Doesn't seem very fair. | ||

Instead he comes in here.claiming EG got an unfair advantage and that's why Idra is playing well. Which could be the case butwhen he didn't even ask to see the bracket and just assumed they wouldn't tell him his opponent he has about as much credibility as I would claiming it (none). Crazystupid do you have any way to verify that it was yesterday? That's a much bigger deal than a couple of hours but again the onus is on the organizers, not the players | ||

Doesn't seem very fair. The two peoples named mentioned are from Complexity (goswser) and Quantic (Illu). It's pretty ridiculous to claim those two teams are lacking in the connections to find an official. Non-issue made an issue by kids choking on their sour grapes. | ||

Asked scoots about it also on the day before WCS and he said that other players should have just asked a official for their opponent. | ||

If anyone is to blame it's MLG, I doubt EG bribed the admins to get super secret bracket info. People who try to pin this on EG are nothing but butthurt people with an agenda (goswser) | ||

Doesn't seem very fair. Life's not fair, in competition, the teams with higher resources will always employ those resources to have an advantage, it's a fact of life, it's part of what makes the underdog an underdog and boosts merit of his/her win. At the same time, it'd be absurd to try to dismiss Idra's well-earned success, as preparation can only get you so far in such a short period and with so many games and different series. That said, it's not like EG had the money to buy advanced info, or anything, it was just asking an official. That doesn't take big brand names to do, even an underdog can network and at the very least become somewhat of an acquaintance with an official to find out such information. Also, complexity and quantic aren't exactly no-names, too, as others have mentioned. | ||

I'm interested in this bit from Liquipedia: "Scarlett and ViBE will finish in qualifying positions, but since they had already qualified for the World Championship (by winning the Canada and USA Nationals, respectively), seeds will be awarded to the 8th and 9th place finishers. The 9th place finisher will be determined by a single elimination consolation bracket between the players who are eliminated in Losers Bracket Round 4." The players eliminated in Loser's Bracket Round 4 are: Suppy DdoRo Fitzyhere HuK I hope they show all of the matches. | ||
