Casters are always biased towards underdogs. No one expected Snute to win this.
Not underdog bias. Foreigner bias. Every foreign caster is biased in their casting when it's a foreigner vs a kr without exception.
By that logic, underdog bias is impossible if the underdog is a foreigner. Believe whatever you want.
Nope. You're connecting the logic wrong. Foreigners are normally underdogs yes, but the reason for the biased casting is not because they're underdogs, but it's because their foreigners.
When it's foreigners vs foreigners there is no underlying biased towards the underdog. This can be seen in any lucifron game and was shown last week in wcs. When lucifron was playing starbuck the casters were going on and on about lucifron and not showing bias for starbuck because he was the underdog. Believe whatever you want though.

yeah, probably the sign of a pro terran player. Keyboard looks as good as new, only the a key has no letter on it
Haha so fucking true ;D Hell, my keyboard is like that too :D
Innovation has to play HerO for Dreamhack in 11 hours and has to play Taeja soon and stick around in case he's needed for ace match . Would be funny if HerO vs Innovation ends up as ace :D.

It's filling time while the next players set up. Is it that hard to think about why something might be happening?

Can't be, Inno already is playing twice. Same with TaeJa.

That's not possible :/
Yea just realised, good for Innovation I guess. HerO will have to stay around all night though, he'll probably be Liquid's ace.

Nonsense. The casters thought Snute was dead when his upgrades were so behind, and started rooting for him when the mass muta started keeping him alive.
