We'll see, he's still got a lot of good players ahead of him. Dear has been looking on form but (or maybe because of that?) the bracket gives him Zest. Shame. | ||

And its both the racists as well as the ones who see racism everywhere that are equally bad, just opposite side extremes who would do better to mind their own business... If you have no intention to participate than why reply at all? No one is saying you're a die hard racist but I advice you to answer Ej's question to yourself at least. | ||

This happens every single time there are 2 foreigners in the top 8 of an event though and it's getting ridiculous. It can only be random draw so many times. They pretty much said when they announced the event that it only exists because of Serral so they definitely want him to win. It wouldn't surprise me if they "randomized" it an extra time when they saw that the first bracket had Serral on track to play hero/Stats/Dear back to back to back. As it is there's a good chance he only has to beat one of those 3 to win the tournament and they are his biggest threats. His next biggest threat would be gumiho who is also on the opposite side. Just some crazy coincidences here. | ||

Just some crazy coincidences here. You know it's bad for the tournament to have 2 PvPs and the only foreigner besides Serrral 100% eliminated. If someone was gonna rig it, Serral would knock out a Korean, Time would get an easier opponent and less PvPs. Also Serral was always gonna play gumiho, Time or herO and not anther first place finisher like Dear or Stats. Stats in the semis is the hardest it could've gotten for Serral. | ||
