It is slower and more expensive, seems defendable right now. If you do not realize it is coming you loose one nexus unless you have a battery, but that feels right.

Yeah, I just checked the rules. I didn't realise they still did H2H with the new system but it makes sense.

It looks like uThermal gets 3rd place over Showtime despite going 1-1 against each other so I assume they've done that based on Showtime's result vs Special? This one isn't as clear to me.

it was a 3-way tie, so between the 3 of them special is 3-1, uthermal is 2-2 and showtime is 1-3

Well it's a 3 way tie in map score. So what they look at next is what happened between them:

Special won once and tied once
uThermal tied twice
Showtime lost once and tied once

I think that is how it works.
Maru and Serral are probably top 5.

Another great day of HSC. They are absolutely killing it this year. Now it's weekend so a lot more people should be able to join, think it's going to be so sick.

When does the stream start on Saturday?

Team France didn’t do as well except for Clem but since they mostly practiced on the old patch they should be able to improve before the next match, so I’m still relatively confident against Germany

The bracket is gonna be sick, and kinda fun on the new patch: there might be some upsets outside of this bo2 format

Playoff bracket is up!

(Wiki)HomeStory Cup/20

Upper bracket looks good, soO vs Serral again and the winner of that vs Special or Inno. A bit sad that Stats and Solar play each other right away in the lower bracket though, means one is eliminated Saturday morning.

Serral vs soO is happening too often for my tastes and Zest vs Trap like a disappointing pairing to me.
On the other hand, Cure vs Reynor might be a great series, especially if Cure mostly goes for bio; Special vs Inno seems nice, I am looking forward to a Serral vs Inno confrontation in the ro4.

If Solar loses early we gain precious insight, I'm rooting for Stats.

Rooting for Stats but if he loses, he has more time to drink

Poopfeast to me is an idea, a legend that transcends any individual man.
