I think that's an upset. Also, WCS ranks are everything. sOs is ranked 12, Polt was 4, Hero was 5 and Bomber was 8. All of them are ranked higher than him, therefore have more skill than him. Another thing is that Redeye called him the darkhorse of the tournaments. I'd say that his wins were huge and major upsets. WCS rank does not correlate to skill, not even close. Then how did they get to those ranks? Through payments to Blizzard? I like when people make that stupid comment that assures you that the conversation isn't worth.
It's ridiculous. If you could look up the bookies odds Bomber was in no way the big favourite in that match. Referencing old wins only has some impact on the likliehood of either player winning.

I'm sure an overlord was somewhere nearby. Remember, at the time, all overlords were detectors. not sure why they aren't anymore.

If you want to have a dick-waving competition with LoL, at least do it somewhere where we're not concentrating on the truly epic and awesome games we're having at Blizzcon.
Alright Maru, show Jaedong what it means to be a champion of SC2!

He gets 100k viewers?

Uninstalling a game is such a teenage drama queen thing to do. You really like your free disk space?

You'll be miserable with this all or nothing mentality.

That's twitch viewers. There's also the blizzard stream. Also there are like 200k people watching Artosis play Hearthstone lol.
The Blizzard stream and the Twitch one are the same, they have exactly the same numbers.
The main stream/Blizzard stream is very laggy...

Uh, I've done some climbing in my days, and a fall from 20 metres, you have to get lucky or fall on something soft. If it's rock or concrete, it's probably GG.

So what you are saying is that Jaedong (rank 3), Mvp (14) and Hero (5) are not more skilled than Adonminus (172), desRow (179) and s2 (204). Or, if they are indeed more skilled, it is only a random chance that they also happen to be ranked higher.

I think their spawning advert is a little out of date now, what with arcade and custom games being free and all 3 races accessible.
