Even without trying my PR has a 50% prediction rate, which breaks your clause. Ego unchecked, kid.


Worst PR since September 2013


Not that i read all PR's since 2013 but is that really important?

Note that there's been, like, six PRs since September 2013, and this tournament is hardly over


Giving up on ranking all 32 players and just making predictions on each rounds of the bracket while keeping the write-up for each player would probably get you less fanboys hate :p

Ehh. Predictions for each match makes the focus on the match, while I wanted to keep the focus on the players. If I get fanboy hate, no big deal. It's not like it matters. v0v


Maybe only have top 32-16, 16-8, 8-4, 4-2, 2-1 ranks then, instead of 32 each

Would that really have avoided the controversy? I mean, the two picks I get flack for (PtitDrogo #3 and Polt #5) would've been even more questionable with that system.


Serral, Bly and neeb were also pretty questionable ! :D
Also Firegod too low !
Major too no way he is the third worst player

Bly isn't really questionable. His online performance has been solid, and his Leipzig run was enough to not drop him down at all. Sure he lost to Elazer, but Elazer should've been around where he was because of GPI and the like

Serral and FireCake probably could've been swapped- FireCake came from valuing online equal to offline which is a little questionable because of what I did with PtitDrogo, but I think Serral overall has enough achievements so far to justify his place. Did he underperform? Yeah! But PRs are ultimately a collection of what has happened so far, not a predictor of things to come.

MajOr struggled with pretty much everyone in NA and lost his throne in South America, so I picked him as the odd one out from NA. You could swap him with puCK and be fine, but.. yeah, it's so close down there that it really doesn't matter. 30 to 26 isn't a relevant mess-up.

Neeb at #8 was entirely relevant based on his previous results, and he performed up to expectations. Losing 2-3 in a tight set to the #2 is exactly as expected based on results, even though he underperformed against Kelazhur.


Well bly didn't even qualify for the event just like drogo
Neeb as litteraly 0 offline resultat ever
Major is around since forever and give more than a run for his money to Snute he always has been kind of solid
Serral is really good but no way he should be that high
Firecake is really really legit and people keep understimate him for no reason
Elazer was really low too If I recall

I'm not mad or anything, I'm just bored at work (in case you were wondering )

Firecake is really really legit and people keep understimate him for no reason
Elazer was really low too If I recall

I'm not mad or anything, I'm just bored at work (in case you were wondering )

Neeb took PtitDrogo to 5 games at Leipzig, which I thought was about where he should be in terms of performance, so I predicted him to do the same here- at which point he would fit in at #8, beat Kelazhur, and lose close to Hydra. Hey, look at what happened! When you look at MajOr's record, you seem to think him being around since forever is a good thing. He's literally 0-6 in WCS- 0-7 now. He has a history of underperforming, which is significantly worse than nothing. FireCake lost /huge/ to Serral at Leipzig, lost hard in GPL to fuckin' DIMAGA and TomikuS, lost to MaNa/Elazer in Acer, lost big to ShoWTimE in Regionals- I underestimated him, sure, but looking at those results it's pretty fair ot underestimate him. Elazer I've gone over a dozen times

Gonna stop arguing now. Read the article~

Nerchio has a 77% winrate vs foreigners in LotV.

What's crazier is, that grows to FUCKING 87% in full matches.

Across almost ~300 matches. Jesus christ, dude.
