We're getting unconfirmed reports that this young up-and-coming player going by the ID aLive who has been winning fans over with his breakout performance in the AfreecaTV GSL Super Tournament is in fact a 7 year veteran of StarCraft II and a previous champion.

Probably just rumors. People would remember such a thing happening.

Just because you don't care that doesn't mean they aren't good.


In my opinion they are still below a lot of the others.

Aaaand with that my interest on this tournament disappears


Yeah I hate it when the worse players advance.


Literally is though :/

if only the better players always won why would we even bother to watch and players play?
just give the title to the best and go home

You'd watch the games to find out who the better players are because they're the ones who are gonna win.

Right?

Because its a fun game to watch. And watching top players fight is awesome.

That being said when all the top players are inconsistent as fuck, and anyone's beating anyone, it just becomes annoying to watch.

Having the underdog win every now and again is great, but when its this much it just makes the game seem unstable. Why would I wanna watch the best players all lose

Right?

No no no no that's wrong.
We already know who the better player is based on their historical achievements.
We just watch the games to observe if the better player rightfully wins the game or if the worse player somehow steals the win. If the worse player steals a win it's because the game mechanics are stupid/coinflippy.

This except usually the supposed better player suddenly plays like garbage and loses.

Edit: to add to that, having an underdog win is awesome. But when they win based of someone else screwing up, it kinda ruins the whole thing

This game is too volatile, i think reducing volatility should be priority #1 for the design team right now.

Agreed. If the game was more consistent I would be in GM. Just that volatility holding me back yo.

Let's be honest - if the game would be more consistent every gsl finals would be soO vs me.
With me winning every time of course.

Come to think of it, history is merely repeating itself. I remember the first Super Tournament being quite a downer with big names crashing out early on too. And also underwhelming towards the end.

- MC, Boxer, July, Fruitdealer, Jinro knocked out by lesser opponents in Ro64
- Mvp knocked out in Ro32
- TvT fiesta (6 in Quarters, 4 in Semis)
- Polt 4-0ed fan-favourite MMA in the Final
