His wrists are on bad shape too and Babyknight is from the US aswell.

His wrists are on bad shape too. There's also cross server lag, thestc is slumping, protoss imba, thestc isn't taking the tournament seriously, ESPORTS being dead and so on.

What is that based on? International Elo well these stats are incredibly bullshit, tod having more "chances" to win the tournament than ganzi who was GSL TOP4 1 year ago, while tod has never accomplished anything ever on sc2. and god knows with what background i say this, im a french wc3 player. Pretty tired of hearing things like these. Sure, you have to take it with a grain of salt. I've said that like 20 times now. If it's based on international Elo, then it's necessarily based on performances in international tournaments. Does Ganzi have any to speak of? Not really. So it's not surprising that he is so unfavoured. Still, you'd be surprised how little a top 4 GSL placement a year past has to say. How good was Jinro a year after his? then there is something totally moronic about the way you actually get to these percentages? polt and stephano being in the same bracket, having 40% for stephano to win and 7% for polt to win makes little to no sense? just the fact that you throw out these statistics like it means anything is totally hilarious. why not compare the last 5 bo3s of the players (regardless of who they played) so you get their shape, then make a totally ridiculous stat in which lets say axslav won his last 5 matches and stephano lost his last 5 and have a ranking that adds up to 100% and doesnt look mathematically flawed yet makes no sense? the fact that mathematically your stats make sense doesn't mean that the method is not flawed. your statistics are bullshit, there is so much statistical bias in them that they are just worth laughing at. You're not very good at math are you? Well, philosophy goldenboy, he's still more readable than you are!  Edit: nevermind the joke, lapsus, for some reason I processed your nick as Deleuze.

Your pronounciation is correct, there is no real "Z" sound in Korea, so it is replaced with a "J" sound.

People complaining that koreans are overdominating the scene then when foreigners take games/series from them you try to find every excuses possible, it's actually very funny.

Ah, no, they're just estimates from a large amount of samples (50k). Qxc has a very small probability of winning. It's not zero but it's so small that it might as well be. (Poor guy.)

100% of 1 yes but 50% of 2. It's math.
