I always felt like blink sentry was decent in late HotS vs zerg.

I'm sad that this tournament had a lot of potential for great matches and has just been one sided for the majority of it

They were admittedly pretty broken especially with the map pool at the time, but they weren't exactly well rounded units. Adepts are slightly broken AND well-rounded.

When Neeb said he got Hydra figured out after the Dreamhack final when he lost 4-2 to Hydra, he really wasn't kidding

One thing that really annoys with these smaller tournaments is how they, just like Lycan said to Neeb there, always say that hopefully players can make a deep run or go far.

With the format of these small 16-player tournaments, for the better players the first round is a non-contest usually, so the quarter-final will be their first game. Win that and they're into a Semi. Deep run completed with easy money in the bag.

Polt sleep-walked into the semis of DH Tours with really bad ( relative to his usual) play yet pocketed a cool 10K. Competition too easy or is there a need for a lower bracket?

in ZvP at least, they were the answer to literally everything after SH got removed

i was going with the "so far" assumption, but yeah I think showtime vs neeb and winner of that vs whoever comes out of bottom side should be pretty good. id also like to see nerchio vs uthermal
