The crowd is pretty... small.

The floor seating being empty? I think that's mainly because those are only sold for CSGO. Those guys won't be here for a few more hours. Still don't know how the crowd is in the bleachers though

Why is the grand final so early? America is still sleeping

because they want it to be played on this giant main stage where CSGO will be played later

Starting at 9am seems less than ideal.

CSGO starts in 2 hours. We're pretty much in the only time slot where we could be in Spodek

CS starts in over 5 hours no? Is there going to be nothing there in between? Could have started a bit later.

edit: forgot the all stars game.

It's the only time sc2 gets to be in an arena anymore. Although the auditorium has a nicer feel to it
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Imagine what happens if Stats and soO decide to troll the CSGO major by turtling all 7 games.

Maybe if we all cheer for Stats then it will jinx to a soO victory. Or the powers of the universe are too strong for soO to overcome

Hopefully this goes to game 7. We're ahead of pace compared to last year, though. If we have good numbers for finals we probably still beat everything from yesterday.

I don't see soO winning against this

same


soO always gets the shitiest of match up in finals

Gumi-INno that always beat him everywhere, on fire Zest-Dear, Rogue as the only zerg he can't beat in zvz, Classic when he was the only toss he couldn't beat in GSL....

turns out that soO is a really strong player but he's never quite the strongest which makes it hard to win tournaments

he defeated himself in more than a few of those finals though

You don't make finals that often if you aren't the best. I agree that's it's more of a mental block for soO than any real problem in skill.

In how many of those finals would you have put soO as the favorite before the games? Most of his final opponents were on an absolute tear when he faced them. The only ones he may have been favored against are Classic, Gumiho and ofc Solar in that IEM.

Zest, Classic, Stats, Solar, Gumiho he was favoured against.

The only ones he wasn't were Dear, and INno. Even against Rogue it was even imo

Edit: and many of the finals he messed up big tim/choked big time

He wasn't favored against Stats come on. By that point we were 5 finals deep already.

In terms of form/who I thought would win, soO was favoured. That's ignoring his record of choking of course. At this point he could play almost anyone and I wouldn't favour him.

Stats came off of a super strong run at IEM Katowice so I was expecting him to win for sure.

Nah man, we can be happy it's even there. It's just not as popular as CS and several other games anymore in terms of viewers.

I don't think there's much prestige in being in a half empty arena, and I really don't think it's worth messing up the show for.
