wouldn't it be P ? (too lazy to check on aligulac :p)

Bomber has a better vZ win % this year and protoss also has more early game bullshit which can be really good to exploit as a random player.

Didn't see games, but hard to blame any toss for losing to balloon. It's a waste of time playing vs random as Toss. Hardly a real game or worth practicing. Unfortunate for pros if balloon ends up in more tournaments.

Random is fun, pros can adapt.


Yes, adapt to starting off every game at a disadvantage and with an inferior build. Yeah, maybe if they're playing amateurs or lesser skilled players... Maybe they can adapt to playing against maphackers too. Doesn't mean it's fair. Surprised anyone practices against random, as it's so rare to face them in tournaments.

Yeah true Random is pretty OP. Small wonder we haven't seen random players tearing up the GSL.

pls go brush your teeth, and tell me if the toothpaste tastes like toothpaste

I tasted like nothing and I managed to stab myself in the cheek with the brush. This is no fun at all.

At least JD won comfortably.

Mucoangin I think they're called.

I feel like I would watch a tv show that just followed you around.
