"I don't trust progamers, progamers are all the same" - Solar, 2018
|
lol there is going to be someone mocking soO in every group this season, isn't there?
|
sOs admitting that Protoss can't play terran
|
Did TRUE finally git gud again?
|
|
|
TRUE prefers to lose now and go play WCS Circuit.
|
|
Aww, Rapid is always there!
|
|
|
did I miss something? I thought TRUE had to let go GSL to join WCS bullshit.

Bio, finally some good TvZ. Mech is so boring.
|
Solar kinda needs to do damage with the Roaches
|
|
once again proving that Bio TvZ is waaay cooler than mech.

great play by keen so far O_o

hello

Keen is much better than i expected
|
Literally BL Infestor vs BL infestor! ;p

KeeN definitely watched the TY v Solar finals in memes and dreams

Later Solar. K33n is here!

Keen's been playing quite well recently. Cool to see him perform in Code S too.
|
Best I've seen Keen play since 2013
|
Already a great game.
|
Holy shit, goodnight Solar.
|
Ghost raven is not balanced. It's just too much impossible to mitigate damage.
User was warned for this post
|
|
Time to dust the cobwebs off this thing:
|
I remember when maru streamed, keen was the only player to consistently beat him
|
Wow something seriously needs to be done about ghost and ghost/raven at this level.
User was warned for this post
Edit: since this is apparently warning worthy, maybe I should clarify that it’s just not fun to watch. At all. I don’t play the game, haven’t since WoL, and don’t particularly care about balance, but ghost/raven is not, imo, enjoyable.

Still not sure about TvZ atm (if terran lategame is too strong or not). I couldn't watch the entire Keen vs Solar blackpink game, and Solar ain't the brightest zerg.
Group H and group G will provide more insight on TvZ.

sos isnt great at PvT I wouldn't bet against Keen winning.

Serral is top 4 himself though
Probably Dark, soO, Serral, Rogue, Solar as top 5?

I mean Raven Ghost looks pretty broken to me but I'll still be rooting for Keen to get out of the group :D

That's gonna be a reddit clip

Solar is better ZvT that Serral, I don't think that's even questionable
Serral has better ZvP I'd say though. ZvZ could go either way.
Top 5 is definitely Dark, soO, Rogue, Solar, and Serral. Unless byul has returned to form.

Serral should compete in GSL so we can get a better estimate of his level

as someone who doesn't normally like terran, keen showed some great terran play. the macro game on blackpink(?) against solar was awesome! 2 base ghost was crazy to watch too
in the end he lost two close series against two players who were more solid than him, but he also did a good job of showing the strength of terran ingenuity. i really believe if keen were more solid against different playstyles (roach/rav, blink DT, etc.) he could have advanced

Why couldn't KeeN or Solar be in group B instead? KeeN deserves Ro16 so much more than Patience and the other participants in that smearing of the Starcraft name.
