I hate to derail this LR thread further, but by the looks of Legacy, they might have to redesign toss anyway. Ravager and later Warp Gate have really brought to light the ugly aspects of the race's design and its clear that moving forward it needs tons of work. There is hope yet.

Now back on topic, that series was epic, especially game 4, hope we see another close one.

They're just gonna slowly back off on warpgate changes, ravager availability and eco changes and it's all going to stay the same.

They'll scale back all the changes and basically it'll all be the same. Blizzard is completely convinced that Protoss's design is amazing and they won't change a damn thing

Which rank in GOAT for PartinG if he wins it all ? Still not in top 15 Stichiu ?

DH isn't super high on his criteria so it may not change his ranking that much. Might barely put him in though since everyone is so close. I don't think he'll be in though since he didn't run into any of the other current top players here

Well it said "He'd probably just need to take a Top 4 at a Tier 2 event to break into the top 15" in the "Bonus Edition" and this is a Tier 2 event, so he's already in now by this standard


This DH isn't a tier 2 event with Stuchiu's criteria...

With this DH lineup, this DH will be give the lowest tier for sure.
Parting has to show what he can do in Korea not in this weak DH


Correct. Now say, if this DH was as stacked as 2013 Dreamhack Bucharest was, or 2014 Dreamhack Winter, then it might be a different story.

I'm worried for PartinG if he plays TRUE. I don't think he's playing at his normal level in this tournament. TRUE is a fairly tricky player who may have something up his sleeve.

Still will probably be 3-1, but he seems a bit off today

he has roughly 2 hours to sober up


what if he plays better drunk? Some people are known to produce their best while being intoxicated. Just look at Hunter S Thompson

edit: just to add, he did blow his brains out, so that might have not been the best example.

TL already threw him a bone by "expanding" the list. But I'm sure he prefers 10k and French girls over being on a list somewhere


they should just update the list every six months but it's too much to ask for considering people still place nostalgia way too highly over longevity and relevancy.


Seeing that Wax is there, I finally get it. Stuchiu has expanded the list to 19 only to prevent him being beaten up bi the Big Boy.

PartinG's playing drunk today --> the lineup of opponents is stronger than it looks.

Let's talk about being extremely pessimistic.

let's talk about what they did in the last patch.
warp-in time: reverted
mineral amounts: closer to HotS
ravager: turned useless

Atm, they are doing NOTHING of the kind of changing protoss to be less forcefield/warpgate reliant, but gimp everything that could hurt forcefield/warpgate play.
