JD's blizzcon chances are now hurt alot actually he needs to escape the group of death in wcs na or get top 4 at dh moscow or stockholm cause the cut-off is very likely to be 3200!!!!

I hope he doesn't. He isn't world championship caliber right now at all

eu/na don't need to be better

they just need to be separated from koreans and chinese for 99% of the year so fans believe there is a chance they'll win. then they don't. then there is a break, the hopes are lifted again, and then crushed.

it is a good system

people enjoyed wcs 2012 as well

By people you mean Europeans. The North American WCS was terrible.

Anyone else remember Insur? Seemed like he was getting good then bang he is gone

Who the fuck is Insur

If you play greedy against Huk, you deserve what's coming to you.

There is something to be said of the spectacle of watching KTB not dropping a single map to anyone at IEM.


ktb is so shit now. they had an old boys club of startale members, the two good players got switched to kta, and now the bullets are a C-tier Korean team.

The fact that JD is most likely making Blizzcon is pretty sad.

good news for Bomber fans atm even though bomber actually lost to him the last time they played so maybe not that good

Meh Bomber is still 8-1 in games against JD in offline setting

The Dong looks flaccid this tournament. He should consult a physician. :/

I'm pretty sure what happened is last year when The Dong was doing well, he was going hard for much longer than 4 hours, saw a physician and it hurt him.

the weird thing is jaedong is still capable of busting out 2-0s and 3-0s against top players on pure mechanics and RTS experience, but his execution and decision making are completely unreliable and make him drop out of brackets against mid tiers all the time

getting pretty pissed at redeye's constant shitting on swarmhost play. that series was very intense and had very few moments that could be labeled as dull by anybody trying to follow the thread of each players thoughts, y'know ... actually paying attention.

How is this intense if the biggest bullshit army from both races clashes? "Back and forth" didnt exist at 3rd map.

at what point are we going to stop trying to argue with people about whether theyre allowed to enjoy something?

caster are also not allowed to shitting that?
