Well at least not me. I trust that Stats is the better player, but today I take the chance to choose Rogue (just the feeling of him will make me suprise). You actually not need for depressed, the games are close, it could happen another way.

Fuck I almost made it further than top 7, but now I'm probably gonna lose some places :/. It was an obvious bet if Rogue didn't use TLO-but-in-bronze-league strats No I'm tired of people defending him as some zerg god even after he just lost. The guy won 21k $ this year out of nowhere and he is praised as the Dark of 2017 or something? I think people don't accept that sc2 is highly volatile at the top level, so whenever someone "new" wins a tournament, they think he is gonna do well in the next tournaments and if not, it's just bad luck or whatever. But the harsh truth is that they are all at the same level depending on days. About sOs becoming better because Blizzcon is soon, I share this opinion too and that's why I gambled and betted on him: when he is expected to crush foreigners he plays like shit so we think he is bad, but when everybody starts to think he is bad he can make great upsets. His wins and losses are as hard to predict for us as his gameplay is for his opponents.
Considering he was the first zerg to win a tournament with korean players since 10 months, you can call him a zerg god.
It may be volatile, but at the highest level the winner is often Protoss or Terran.
Fun fact, Zerg hasn't won a GSL since january 2015 on HOTS (and it was Life).

Wow. Rogue just basically won another GSL.

Thats what you get when only soO reaches finals

Lol people saying Rogue's overrated despite being the only Korean zerg to win a tournament this year
And reaching GSL playoffs twice in a row is impressive as hell. Its just a shame he peaked now and not earlier in the year. There's no shame in losing in GSL ro8, especially losing 3-2 someone with 12200 WCS points
|
So Rogue has lost in the Ro8. Therefore, it is guaranteed that Stats will lose to sOs, who wins the whole thing.
Or has the Rogue curse been broken?

Last season it turned out soO curse is stronger than Rogue curse.

Ah, so the Rogue-killer-killer now loses in the finals? Gotcha.
In other words, everybody on Rogue's side of the bracket is doomed.
Also worth noting that if Inno makes the finals, he's swept both sOs and Stats in big-stage finals before (WCS Season 1 and IEM Gyeonggi, respectively). On top of that, he's beaten the rest of the Splyce roster in the finals this year, but Stats wasn't on Splyce at Gyeonggi (and that was in 2016 anyhow).

Turns out Aiur is the best SC2 team after all.

Stats will help sOs to go to GSL final again, Rogue knows it.

if sOs manages to get to the final, he will get screwed by any of the lower bracket players. That's the truth that sOs cannot win tournaments where the opponents have plenty of time to prepare for each match.

Honestly, it looked like Rogue could have taken Stats if he'd had some different strategies in some of those games. Even though he lost, this is the series that made me believe in Rogue for real. Give him just a little more time and at some point, he might be one of the greats.

I was originally going to vote for Rogue before I watched him fall apart to Bunny a few days prior in Masters Coliseum.
Not the same match up sure, but it shows weakness in mentality in a best of 5 format if things aren't going as smoothly as he would like. And, that's exactly what happened.
