Minigun vs qxcTwo of the true veterans of North American Starcraft meet here in Challenger. Fans will no doubt be disappointed that only one will advance to Premier League, but conversely, having one of these two in Premier is still a treat for the NA scene. Minigun has had recent health troubles that have put him in the hospital for nearly 3 weeks, but apparently Minigun will be released today, and should have at least some time to recover and prepare before his match on the 12th. Everyone wishes Minigun the best in his recovery and hope he has time to get in good shape before his games! qxc has been one of NA's top terrans since the beta of Starcraft II. Shockingly, he has never reached Premier League in WCS AM despite his best efforts. His advancement into Challenger League last season through the qualifiers inspired some confidence in his play, but he was stopped short of Premier by SeleCT. He has once again fought his way through the qualifiers and will be looking for a better result in Season 2. Although I think that these two are fairly even and have been matched up against eachother many times in the past, I'm going to give qxc the edge here and predict that he will make Premier League for the first time. Prediction: Minigun 1-3 qxc (1485) Minigun 0-0 qxc (1376) Estimated by Aligulac. Modify. WCS Predictor says Starts in + Show Spoiler [Minigun, qxc in WCS AM S2 Challenger] + WCS AM S2 Challenger -   Minigun is at ~ 0.37 % chances for top 16 points of 2014~ 56.49 % of the time Minigun wins and their chances go up to ~ 0.65 %.~ 43.51 % of the time Minigun loses and their chances go down to ~ 0.01 %.------------------------------------------------- -  qxc is at ~ 0.23 % chances for top 16 points of 2014~ 43.51 % of the time qxc wins and their chances go up to ~ 0.51 %.~ 56.49 % of the time qxc loses and their chances go down to ~ 0.01 %. | ||

Drive over to my place and you can scream to your full desire! Might awaken some sleeping bear or something though but hey, if you are not putting your life on the line you are not really a true caster either. Just look at dApollo, he even moved to Germany, talk about leap of faith. | ||

I was talking straight-up, as if the hospital thing never happened. Adding that in (incidentally, fuck Crohn's), that's why the head poll actually favored the player who had never been in Premier before over the guy who had never been out of it. | ||
