Sage, you ruined the 100% !
Yes, somehow nearly all of them got through, although BlinG, Jeal, NightEnD, elfi, Targa, Demuslim and Sase took series of koreans. If this format would be single elimination, the tournament could have worked out really weird.
I want to thank some people. Namely the people discussing the relative difficulty of breaking walnuts with one's penis, the ones finding their soulmates due to a common hatred of spelling mistakes and the all the people who come here to have fun, share some jokes and be entertained.
You are awesome and you all deserve hugs. Long hugs, short hugs, I would even throw in a kiss on the cheek. I love you all and want to thank you for making my days a little bit brighter, sometimes a lot brighter.
Agreed, silly offtopic SC2 LRs are the best <3
naturally
this one in particular isn't dark enough yet though
Kevan isn't around, thats why. I like the guy, but he's one creepy motherfucker (possibly literally, I wouldn't put it past him)
If someone ever does a description of the interesting guys who hang out in LR threads this has to be added to describe Kevan

JOKES, probably just the most consistently funny guy in LRs, seriously I'm in jealousy of your ability to perfectly use LR memes and original material in just the right balance.

His weakest matchup by far, i'd say this is a pretty bad first opponent for him..
Seems like a lot of top players seem to struggle in their mirror matches except for terrans. (Hero, Stephano, ..)
Well for top terrans, playing TvP and TvZ is like training in 10x gravity conditions, so when they play the perfectly balanced TvT it's a lot easier. Obviously this works the other way around for P and Z.

at some point in those 2 sentences the balance whining was subtle.
If it's too subtle it may be taken seriously, there's a fine balance.

you know it's not balance whine it it's true, right?
Can anyone make a prediction on how Nightend beats Stephano tomorrow ? Just a hypothesis I mean:
Game 1: Nightend miss manages a force field and manages to let 20 zerglings eat his probes at the natural, thus letting Stephano gain a big advantage and secure the victory.
Game 2: Nightend opens with Stargate and we see him micro-ing his phoenixes near perfection, reducing the crowd at DH Valencia to silence, while he plucks drone after drone from Stephano's bases. Then he goes full spoon protoss on him and nearly lets him recover, although being on equal number of bases. Nightend eventually wins by simply overpowering Stephano eventually with his colossus.
Game 3: ??
I have no idea how Nightend could get a game 3 out of Stephano simply due to the fact that he'd be in awe after taking one game against him, and then I fear he won't be able to focus fully on the game.
Please do give a happy ending for Silviu 'Nightend the Dracula protoss' Lazar. Cheers!

If this is a balance whine it isn't very convincing.
