You don't get to decide that

You don't get to decide it doesnt..its opinionated.


What are you even saying, that all tournaments are like this? That most are? That you decide what is what?

That what is happening is part of the SC2 scene as a whole?


Of course it is, everything is, but I'm not sure why you seem to think that this tournament is somehow more representative than another.

That is what I was saying at the start when someone said it wasnt. I think it has more representative then you think though since it is the first winners-take-all.


If anything its an anomaly... no other tournament is like this, so the behavior/mentality of people at this tournament is likely to be quite different to normal.

I'd say the WCS EU/NA/KR are the real 'depictions' of the scene, plus the multitide of things like Dreamhack/Normal IEM's/ASUS ROG etc.

Somehow this is 2-2. Taeja doesn't deserve this win, SD please take g5.

hmm? what did he do improperly in games 3-4?


Nothing. I just can't get behind anyone who gives up so early.


That would be Naniwa. Taeja is still fighting and it is currently 2-2.
Idk what you are watching...

I think it's less representative since it's winner-take-all. It's the only tournament of its kind and is supposed to be a one-off. Like it represents nothing but itself. So I still don't get it.

DAFAQ ?????????? Out of everything I have ever seen in esports since the beginning of wc3.......WTF NANIWA ? I just came back from a day long amateur rugby sevens tournament , I get home with the intent to get into the Naniwa hype....and this happens , in a 100K tournament.

My brain is fucked up now.

Naniwa never had a realistic chance at the 100k prize pool vs these players, so if anything the prizepool structure would encourage this kind of behavior from underdogs. That does not make it excusable though.
