Why did Canada get 3 spots, Mexico 2 and Italy, Argentina, Chile, Peru got 1 when Sweden didn't have any and countries like Ukraine, USA and Poland only got one spot? No qualifier host for Sweden is my guess but how come? :/


Weird results btw, rooting for Adelscott, haven't seen him perform in a long time !

Props to CombatEx for making it into Pool play, say what you will about best of 1s but he did it.
Though I don't think the PartinG Combat series was very close, but hey the guy is one of the best in the world.
Game 1 Combat put up a fairly delayed robo, eventually leading to a 3rd expansion and a late twilight into charge play vs a guy who has sentries with full energy and colossus. Just seemed weird, maybe nerves got to him.
Game 2 Combat had a nice push, but overstays and ends up losing 3 stalkers and a zealot for 1 stalker. However PartinG doesn't scout his natural after clearing the forces, Combat has a probe still there, makes a pylon, and continuously warps in zealots keeping PartinG on 1base while he expands and PartinG has to gg.
Game 3 was just kind of silly, Combat gets an unscouted proxy 2gate, but PartinG's probe/1zealot micro is too good and he shuts it down fairly easily.
All in all though, was entertaining to watch. Good to see CombatEx so happy/appreciative even when he loses, guy seems like he's just happy to finally get to play with the best of them on a mainstage. Who can blame him?
Maybe this will fuel his fire to keep playing in the long run.

I think this puts him as a solid player now, so if TL does a write up on WCG, they'd better commend him :D.

MKP pulling up a Squirtle. At least it's good for PartinG, I don't see anyone beating him in a Bo3+.
