The music was enjoyable though.

Solid micro from Serral in that engagement. Perfect repositioning to keep his reinforcement stream protected, swinging just enough roaches up to the north to get a surround and push on new waves.

Was some good roaching by Joona.
|
Serral just always looks like he knows something about using roaches that his opponent doesn't in ZvZ. It's weird to watch how he'll go into a maxed engagement against say Nerchio, and just crush it. Like same upgrades and all, but it doesn't matter.

Are we really still doing the "Stephano doesn't care, practice, or study at all" meme?

Stephano is so freaking disappointing, I am done with him, it hurts too much honestly.
|
God damn Serral is so good - he always sets up for amazing engagements.
|
I don't think that was particularly impressive play from Serral. I think HeRoMaRinE didn't split well enough versus the Banelings. Basically, standard Zerg is easier than Terran at WCS Circuit level, so Zerg dominates.

Well between these games and GSL, feels like we won't have good games/series today.
At least commentators are trying to hype the game a bit, props to them

how is the seeding here? group A seems really imbalanced compared to other groups.. HM and Serral were TOP4 last EU WCS.. and had good results also in Austin. A bit sad for HM, still congrats to Namshar.
About Stephano, he is in a great form.. 7k mmr.. and got in a group with Serral and HM.. bad luck I guess.

Yeah, it was the same last qualifier with a random amount of players from each way of qualifying to the groups. For example Serral as an invited top-4 player was with 3 open qualifier players.
Would like to know what kind of a system they have instead of 1 invited + 1 GM + 2 qualified in each group.

they form 4 pools according to wcs points
here it was:
pool 1: serral (1), mana (7), showtime (4), nerchio (6)
pool 2: heromarine (10), snute (8), lambo (9), uthermal (13)
pool 3: stephano (19), ptitdrogo (24), bly (15), sortof* (34)
pool 4: namshar* (34), rail (98), soul (38), clem (47)
then for group A one player is picked randomly from each pool
then the same for groups b and c
seems like it was just pure bad luck for heromarine and stephano to get into that group
challenger rule book
*namshar and sortof were tied -> got randomly put into their pool (3 or 4)

Thanks. A pretty logical way to go that I was also kinda assuming, but next time should probably just check myself.

Drogo's macro has been really good so far, timing his harass well also.
