Dark will 3-0 Neeb most likely, I think we all know this. Just wait till friday and see Also, Neeb did not sound confident vs Dark at all. He probably jsut wanted to say something either way for the camera. | ||

But it's free to just spew bullshit on the internet so people like Poppi will continue to do that. He probably jsut wanted to say something either way for the camera. Exactly. | ||

Or you are too afraid to place money where your mouth is? Are you trying to sound the least bright possible or what xD? Gaining money on gambling is about having a positive expected value, not gambling on just one match, so why would I bet on Neeb vs Dark? Either way that wouldn't prove that what I say is true, not will it disprove it ^^. You are the one spitting bullshit  , especially since gambling and stuff didn't seem to do too well to the korean scene, encouraging people to gamble on matches isn't really a nice thing to ask at all. | ||

 If Showtime wins now some people here will forever whine about bracket luck instead accepting of a great achievement.Also the early TvT is painful with so few terran. On the other hand it's a pretty hype match that we might of been denied of if they were opposite eachother. But no chances for ZvT untill finals which is a shame. Couldnt watch today but seems most matches went as expected. Bit sad the replacement man dream is dead but oh well. | ||

ShoWTimE was able to study countless vods of ByuN and was prepared so the odds were in his favour g2 (didn't see g1), especially on new Gettysburg, with ByuN getting nervous and not realizing soon enough that he should have played it more like TY. When you watch some EU T stream and they are against ShoWTimE he always appear as an unbreakable wall, whereas most Korean P take fast third without much units or try to harass early without having much at home. Edit : recommended matchs. Dear vs ByuN g2 if you like cyclone action, g1 if you like perfectly timed strong Terran pushes. Otherwise not very interesting. Nerchio vs Elazer g2. Neeb vs Patience g1 and g2. | ||

When you watch some EU T stream and they are against ShoWTimE he always appear as an unbreakable wall, whereas most Korean P take fast third without much units or try to harass early without having much at home. After watching many many ByuN games I can confirm he played poorly vs ShoWtimE. If you see g1 he had a massive shot and then bunged it hard. He left like 5 liberators on the other side of the map doing nothing (1 or 2 to deny mining is good, not all of them). He also lost his forces doing counterattacks to DTs, instead of retreating them. And he overmade vikings too soon. If he just had his forces together he could have won g1 easily. Showtime basically A-moved him. It's also the first time I've seen him fail to split against disruptors, after all the GIFs of him dodging like 4 shots at once you could tell he was feeling the nerves. g2 was going better for ByuN but he failed to get the damage he normally does. And he even had a decent shot at forcing a draw (gettysburg being the best map for it) and messed that up hard. His unit control just kinda stopped working Todays games were all kinda crappy tbh. ByuN vs Dear was ok, just ok. Elazer vs Nerchio g2 was good, Neeb vs Patience g2 was cool (although i'm a bit sick of disruptor wars by now) | ||

So in a tournament that had 7 zerg, 7 protoss, and only 2 terran, they're forcing one of the Terrans to be eliminated before the semifinal. Wow. Absolutely unacceptable. How is it "unacceptable"? Two Terrans qualified. They put in their performances and got matched up in the round of 8. The bracket selection was broadcast live. Yeah it sucks to be a Terran fan here. But in no way is this "unacceptable". Do you want Blizzard to be like "nah fuck it we don't like the look of that, redraw the bracket plz". Everyone here got their spot deservedly. | ||

Also, Showtime was ready for his early pushes with a fast colossus and good control to keep it from being sniped so Byun never really got early damage in. | ||
