At least it was the other times I was there. Yup, this one is played in the main building of the Globe.

Actually, 5/6th is rewarded with the seed compare with 7/8th which is a big deal. Just that Stephano already had seed so that is why it seems 7th is just as good as 5/6th. Although I think the money could be spread a bit better, you can't say 5/6th is not rewarded.

Lowely ? Vortix? Lucifron? Babyknight ? Who would have guessed those ones! It's nice to see some new top players in Europe. Vortix isn't a big surprise if you watched IEM, he was on fire there. BabyKnight has also shown more and more skill if you follow the EU scene. But yeah, Lowely and Lucifron are really surprising and great upsets! Not actually, Lucifron was always top 3 terrand and Lowely had a great showing in NASL3.
I am surprised people don't know about Lucifron. He had been there since release being a solid terran by foreigner standards.

If socke would've gone top6 too they wouldn't be. Seeds should not be part of this equation imo. But yes of course it still paid off hugely for Grubby here.
Edit: It's just the whole distribution from 32nd till 5th is meant for a single elimination bracket.
