Would love a Stats-Dark final. You can talk about Maru-Serral all you want but Stats-Dark is the biggest rivalry of LOTV.

Was it possible to get TY v Stats? Because I think they're really trying kill Maru with his shaky TvT or with Stats.

Yes, but Special vs Rogue wasn't possible.

Ah, OK. Then the only thing from my paranoia that didn't happen is the JAGW players on the same side. Otherwise
1) JAGW team kill - check
2) Trying to kill Maru - check(shaky TvT and/or Stats + the teamkill)
3) Stats and Maru on the opposite sides because why the fuck not rigg it


All zergs on one side is just a bonus, because people complaining about zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzvzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz(or rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrvrrrrrrrrrrrrr)
I imagine France should be able to take this unless Lilbow is busy practicing for Starcraft III. | KadaverBB is my fairy ban mother.

You really think so? I think that sOs has been pretty much garbage in these series.


I mean just the encounters of sOs vs Maru.

sOs has won 3-1 and lost the other two 2-3.

I really think Serral is in legitimate danger of getting booted in the round of 8. This time Dark will have a few days to prepare, and Serral's ZvZ hasn't been looking too hot lately, by his standards.

apparently maru and serral are on opposite of the bracket cause they rank 1st in wcs rankings. which makes no sense whatsoever, but i wont complain


Yeah I mean, that's what everyone wanted anyways. So it's fine.

you don't suddenly shift your rules for no logical reason other than people wanting it

why not, lol.

ever heard of something called competitive integrity? In every other sport rigging the bracket to make 2 favourites face later in the tournament would be a HUGE controversy.
it's not much better than what Life did tbh.

In any other sport or even esport it would probably be called "seeding".

To be fair, tournament organisers can change whatever rules they want if it will make a better show

the WCS rules were announced at the start of the season though. technically they have the right to change it when they want but the lack of transparency doing this is concerning

even when it's only announced when the drawing is happening? when the rules were clear beforehand and suddenly changed?

The proper way is to create the rules at the start of the competition and then follow them. Don't announce new rules right before "random" drawing

I forgot about the last one in GSL v The World. But honestly I think sOs was very underwhelming in GSL and IEM.

I'd say Dark is a real danger to Serral too. And Rogue if he gets past TY.
