That game is a pretty good example of why SC2 is such a harsh and unrewarding game for worse players. No matter how much you may be better than your opponent, if they take a lead in the early game, you'll still probably lose.

Come backs are just so hard in mirrors.


What are you even talking about?

No one really had a lead because they kept throwing away their advantage.


Dboi had 4 base to 3 and a 50 supply lead at one point before Neeb broke out.


And yet he could have won if not for some terrible drops


He did win. That's the point. Neeb broke out. Had equal supply, better upgrades, a fresh 4th and a larger bank. For all Dboi's mistakes, he still ended up winning.


Because Neeb made equally terrible mistakes.

The fact drunkenboi won doesn't show that there was no chance for a comeback.


I think Neeb's play is far far superior to Dboi's.

Still, it's just one example. It's a very very hard game. It's very unrewarding. And one mistake - something as simple as having your army on one side of a high ground than another - can cost you an entire game, which is pretty brutal. Especially for lower skilled players who want more instant gratification than spending hours learning about map positioning, scouting and coverage.

Anyway, this isn't the place for that discussion. It was just an observation from that game.

Congrats to Vibe and Neeb for advancing, definitely the two favoured players in the group. Bring on the all Korean Terrans!

8 if you count Scarlett, but she isn't playing next season. There's still HuK and KiLLeR to go.

Neeb seems to get pretty lucky with his challenger groups. Both times he got one of the easiest groups he could get.

Still, good job getting back in Premier.

Hey, there could be an all American group in Premier League next season with those numbers.
