Phaha sure buddy....

Regardless, looks like an amazing lineup. Horrible time tho for Eastern Time Zones so will be unable to watch again.


What do you mean "sure buddy?"... You think there's some unknown sponsor providing the prize pool that doesn't want to be recognized by the public? That makes no sense at all. If someone else were paying for this, I'm pretty sure they would want their name out there for people to see.

somehow i don't think that guy realizes who dragon is





Please do tell me who Dragon "is". Are his parents really wealthy goat breeders or something?

Last time I checked the average monthly salary in Korea isn't even close to $2000 a month and this dude is giving away $4000 in less than a month for absolutely no reason when he has nothing to gain from this what so ever. It's just seems kind of odd.


He is taking a risk by investing his own money and organizing the tournament completely on his own. Dragon has been around for a long time, and while he doesn't pull 5K+ viewers every stream, he has been one of the most popular and dedicated streamers for years. It's not that hard to discern that he would have some money saved up from the years of contract/stream revenue.

He catches a lot of flak for an incident wayyy back in the day where he either stream cheated or hacked, some people just can't move on, I suppose. Regardless, his commitment to eSports has been nothing but fantastic, and hopefully we get to see more. He will obviously need to secure a sponsor in order to continue, so we'll see.

Oh yes, right. Silly me. Well hoping for an Innovation vs Life finals and MMA vs Leenock 3rd place match!

Innovation taking BOTH Dragon Invitationals would be pretty badass.

This TvT is insane. Great time for INnoVation to hit MMA while he was preparing a drop. MMA is going to struggle to overcome this economic deficit.

Edit: hahaha now Dragon shows us INnoVation's main base is gone!

This game reminded me of the epic finale of the GSTL between INnoVation and SuperNova, just not quite as epic as that but very exciting nonetheless.

Another game which convinces me even more that 2 Turrets per mineral line are needed, but I seem to be the only one thinking so. Against a good opponent relying mostly on the vision the Turret gives you just doesn't really cut it.

Absolutely agree. How many scans did he waste? Lost gas mining time, lost SCVs, just shouldn't even be a decision in my opinion - just build 2 turrets per base.

He took a huge number of risks throughout that game. Still pretty well-played, though.
