 Really feel like we are always punching under our weight at these Nation Wars. | ||

On a related note, we just got drawn into a group with France and CR7 in the Euros 2020. Brutal group F death | ||

In TvP, Special is almost certainly worse, and they went out in the same round in HSC, Special with the easier matchup. I think Clem hasn’t had that breakout tournament just yet to put him ahead of Special or HeRoMaRinE quite just yet, but he’s definitely got the potential to outstrip them. Special is a pretty damn good preparation player though, I’d give him the edge over the rest of the foreign field in scenarios where that comes into play. | ||

The same special that has been eliminating guys like sos, neeb, parting etc all year? The one that classic wouldn’t draft into his code s group? Special is one of the best tvpers in the world imo. He hates Protoss with such a passion that he’s now quite the tvp beast lol. It’s the only matchup I see special punching above his weight | ||

If we did a marathon run where Special and Clem have to play 10 TvPs vs a series of blind opponents I’m not sure Special does much better than Clem, if at all. | ||

And ofc the next iteration of Serral vs Reynor. Somehow I don't get tired of these two battling it out (yet). | ||

Also check out Clem vs MaNa from Nationwars. Great game I will be very disappointed if does not make it to "best games of the month." MaNa is no slouch and showed he is in great shape at HSC a week later. | ||

Special overall just has better tournament TvP than clem which, imo, means his TvP is better. idk i personally just place tournament ability over ladder ability. Special's TvP is very impressive. | ||

And ofc the next iteration of Serral vs Reynor. Somehow I don't get tired of these two battling it out (yet). Korean players will have 4 days to fight against the jetlag, it should be ok for them. | ||
