Really hope he can come through here.
Those things are just journalist predictions. It is not like your strategy can really rise 12 points from ro32 to ro16, but it still did for Maru...

Like smart bullets that can travel across half the map and fire bullets themselves on the way :3

Against a protoss army about as mobile as a whale on an australian beach, zerg used no drops at all, no nydus at all, and no runbys till minute 41 or so.

For a second there i thought Tasteless said "our crappy protoss player."

On paper this is the closest match to predict. Still think Maru will have it pretty easily but could see the upset.

Interesting that qat/khat gets mentioned on the day after it was in the news yesterday because it's going to be banned in the UK, apparently.

are you suggesting that Australian beaches have greater friction than their counterparts in the world? If true, that would be detrimental to tourism in Australia.

tiebreakers will be determined by bo.1 matches on the last day of the ro.16 broadcast, after all matches.
