Team money well spent. Foreigners getting plenty of promotion and stage time while playing badly, everyone else slogging through the open bracket with no recognition. Well at least we didn't have to pay for flights since it's right before WCS, that's a plus I suppose. Don't worry, if Alicia and Heart make the Champ bracket they will get a lot of coverage plowing through the foreigners in loser's.

guys why aren't you watching hyun vs puck? there's no second set which means puck is gonna cause an upset

I don't get why they don't let community casters do the open bracket

We're missing so many amazing games, and in my opinion the open bracket grind is the most interesting and dramatic parts of these events

And speaking of the game, surprise nerds, Major is still a good player!

Yeah, dunno about your players but Leenock has played 5 bo3s, 2 of them vs good opponents (Stardust and LiquidHerO) and not a single match has been streamed. Two of them even finished AFTER MLG turned off their streams. Probably the same for your players. Wish there were community streams at least ._.

Maru almost made it work!
Regarding raven opener, both Maru and Gumiho have used them recently. I kinda like them, but it's so annoying that raven gets priority in the army :p

I honestly have no idea where Alicia is on the bracket. He lost to HyuN 2-1 in the final round of the winners open bracket and then vanished completely. He's not on the lower bracket list at all.

Major's been just killing Stardust with awareness.

A lot of the games in the bracket are more interesting and have the hype of being on the verge of elimination. I think it'd be better to stream open bracket games instead of pool play games.

Wait what happened with hyun v puck? Did someone win or?

(also Alicia is literally 1 bo3 from the champ bracket i think) I think it's self explanatory. If Heart and Alicia manage to make it out of the dark days of the open bracket they should get streamed wrecking a couple rounds of these foreigners that were in pools.

You can't rank casters because everyone has different criteria for what it would mean to be great.
IE:
Entertaining? Knowledgeable? Well spoken? Crediable?
These are a SMALL fraction of the traits that a caster needs, everyone will list them in a different order and judge each one differently.

Since his loss was at the very end of the Winner's Bracket, I don't think we know which Loser's Bracket he was placed into, which is why he's not listed.

The last time they did this event, I preferred that format. 128 player bracket, cherrypick the best games to stream, done. EZ. As it stands you have 2 pools with a bunch of foreigners in them and a few Koreans smacking them around, whereas there's a bracket full of champions that we don't get to watch. Pool play in general I feel is pretty rubbish.
