Come on... This is really starting to get unfair.


wouldn't have been any easier if he drew PartinG or herO either although after yesterday you would think he has a better chance in that matchup. but if he wants to truly be a top player he needs to shore up every matchup. i believe! even though it's against TY ;_;

Well he could only get second place finishers, so it was between XY, uThermal and TY, so he really has bad luck.

But you are right, if he wants to win he has to beat the strongest players anyway. Now he chould win the tournament by beating Rain, Classic, TY, Parting and herO in a row.

Just imagine, that woule be by far the sickest performance of a foreigner ever.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

He couldn't have drawn Parting or herO. First place vs Second place from another group.

well he couldn't get hero, classic, or parting, so that leaves TY, XY, and uThermal. It's obviously just bad luck, but its really quite a pity

you guys are absolutely correct. my brain is barely working :D

pretty terrible luck in that case. reminds me of another recent instance where a foreigner came out first in his group to be rewarded with a korean. mlord against rain at hsc? TY should have been first in his group and Snute would have had a pretty decent chance against Losira.

Yeah TY is just a beast right now, he got there through the korean qualifier and beat soO recently I think. Losira would've been better.

TY isn't that strong against Zerg though and he always keeps losing to Losira, maybe Snute should ask him for a few tips.

I think it might be a nice series considering their respective styles. TY has a tendency to overdo it on the drop harass to the point where he runs out steam and has too small a force for the main engagements. I think Snute might be able to keep up in that multi-faceted tactical game. Also didn't TY recently beat soO 2-0 in qualifiers? I haven't really been able to watch much Korean SC2 lately so I can't really say much about his recent form. Those games against Losira weren't too educational about his play in the matchup.

Kind of sucks to have two main contenders for the title on the same side of the bracket. It's like gsl all over again

haha so Snute did draw TY after all, in his typical IEM fashion. It's a curse.

He lost the rematch against soO 0-2 (even though he had a massive lead in the first game after killing soO's 3rd). It's safe to say that TvZ is by far his worst matchup.

So pvp final with herO getting his fourth championship? Granted if he doesn't get cheese by Classic out of the tournament yet again.

I can't believe herO's and PartinG's group/bracket luck, damn. As if they needed the free points...
