I'm so happy I made it through this tournament without being banned. If I made it through that, I can make it through anything
RIP Starcraft scene in the UK. Defeated by EG money and Swedish Zergs.

Imagine a Jaedong vs Polt final going to game 7 or something similiar.

Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

sOs really goes into kill-mode in finals. Maybe only really strong mechanical players can give him a run at those times, such as INnoVation did

I really wish artosis et al would shut the fuck up about hero not winning "Ahny Mohney!!!" while were watching him sitting distraught and ccrushed in his booth. Just cruel.


Why would Artosis care, he gets his caster paycheck like everytime anyway. :p

Hence why IEM should only pay the best caster, makes the casting more exciting.

I think we had enough bad chemistry just with the different sizes of the paychecks :d

You see, you people have never been in a competitive experience in your life, hence why you can't understand how good that series was.

Why are you still making baseless assumptions and generally shitty posts?


Someone must counter the bullshit shitty posts in here.

That's like if there was a ten year old on a Seesaw and then a sumo wrestler sat on the other side to "balance it out".

But it was like watching Protoss carry out the caricature of what we all came to believe PvP was over the last 3 years!

Still, thanks to IEM for a great tournament. The finals were weak but that's just PvP. There have been some amazing games - Hyun vs Hero, Revival vs Jjajki, Hero vs Polt etc etc. Let's be grateful for those.

Our gratitude is all the reward those players will get, anyway.


Agreed, tournament was great. Can't have a Triple A final all the time.
Curious that we spend more time congratulating people who have succeeded than encouraging people who have not. 파이팅! ᕦ(ò_óˇ)ᕤ"

Why so? except for the PvP, this tournament format was alot more interesting. Protoss is just boring to watch.


Because the finals are basically the end The culmination of a tournamet of how a tournament is remembered. When we look back on this in 6 months it won't be my god that Jjakji vs Revival series was godly, it will be remember that time sOs proxy double gated his way to 100k. Thanks IEM!

Only special people like me remember the other rounds.

Ultimate villain sOs takes it all, yay.
Huge event with only 100k is another nail in the coffin of SC 2's long demise.

The gameplay was meh but I guarantee you this was the most cutthroat series you will ever see. No games have ever been taken more seriously than the 5 you all just watched.
