But now Inno vs Dark, the thing I'm here for. | ||

Then at the bottom you'll most likely find IG and DLG. But I think the teams in-between are all actually pretty even and could beat each other on any given day. | ||

Imagine though if they had sent SortOf and TSG went with TY (for some reason, his performance didn't really lend itself to it). SortOf would have been hopeless, Dynamite already made it close. Still annoyed by the fact that Nightshade was played 3 times. | ||

These runbys (more like invasions) with massive Zealot counts are devastating. It's like ling runbies really. And Terran is very lacking in defensive mobility, so if you hit multiple bases at once they're prone to falling apart. But still TY and Dream made it too easy for Astrea. TY was playing like he was distracted or something. So many unit donations. | ||

The thing is that TY had to give up map control and vision entirely for a very long time since he lost a lot of units for free and Astrea had blink vs no stim early on. So he was too worried to move out until it was too late. | ||

Yeah we need like Gold and Black, so TSG can have gold and IG Black so we can give Alpha X yellow. Alternatively black and white. Those are colors that are already in the game, Blizzard should just make them available for custom games like come on. Until we get something like that, I could also see two teams sharing a color (IG & LP both pink for instance) and when they play each other they take the color of whichever team doesn't play that week. Anything so we can get some color diversity. Team colors in Proleague were such a cool thing. Now every tournament ever is red vs blue only. Which isn't even a strong contrast for the viewers, SC2 has much bigger ones. | ||

They'd have to get two really, really bad match-ups, which is kind of hard with their line-up. That's the thing, there's no players in the league favored to 2-0 Dark or Cure. Even for PartinG there wouldn't be many I'd think. You need things to go so well to not lose that match outright. And they have one of the more stable Chinese guys. | ||

I don't say about who is right! | ||

I dunno who's managing these matches for DLG, but they're doing a good job preparing the players for their scheduled matches and picking the aces. | ||

He seems like a worthwhile addition, showing some good qualifier runs vs. Koreans. Is it because there was some smurfing controversy in the past? (but if that's the case, it seems like half of the other players also shouldn't have teams...) It is due to the matchfixing scandal in 2017. 1. His involvement in the matchfixing scandal in the original SL team league did a huge blow to the league. 2. He also screen cheated during an online tournament against one of his own teammates (X-Team). That teammate came from a family hugely impacted by the 2008 Sichuan earthquake and spent a lot of time taking care of his grandmother. 1. is already considered unacceptable by many but 2 makes him unforgivable from the Audience's perspective. | ||

If Astrea pulls it off now, he s going to be the MVP of the whole season. But even a single Map win would be a good result for him and an ok one for the Team I gues | ||

If they could get BKGG up a bit, they d be even better. Pretty damn good, considering how they look on paper compared to some other Teams here If necessary, would Silky (Chinese player) replace BKGG ? Two days ago, his rush 3-2 Firefly and got the winner of GPC Tier 2 #4. Gold Professional Championship 2020/4 | ||

Regardless Cloudy took a couple of weeks to get his game up again and would ve been a way easier Opponent than TY. So that would have most likely ended in an ACE Match instead without TY. | ||

(insert Apollo killing the KR/CN scene meme here)And I know Wardi might do the replays at some point, but that's not really optimal, obviously, since there's no solid schedule for when those are casted. Chinese Douyu Stream here! | ||

I already told him Bomber would go 3CC. :D Edit 2: Let me take everything back, XiGua is in fact a god! :D Really nice counterattacks! Bomber also falling apart in Game 2 omg! Hell yeah XiGua! | ||

I will look into perhaps casting the playoffs as a YouTube only cast, but I can't live stream on YouTube due to my Twitch contract as far as I know. | ||

Just a few years ago chinese streaming platforms wiredly doesn't want streams to show how many people there are, I think some of them do that because of they are investing on streamers and making this hotness stuff could make people to tune in more likely. Some streamers have their salary depend on the hotness stuff, they need to have certain amount of hotness over certain hours every month to get full salary and full gifts(nostalie stop streaming heros of the storms because of that). And the rest, idk. By the way, streamers doesn't know how many people there are too, so the chat and the subscription as thing are the only measurement to tell how many human beings are there. | ||

Our playoff teams are a pretty fun mix as well. We have the star-studded rich kids from DPG and Kaizi, the middle class kid from BSG and the working class kids from LP and AlphaX who have no standout players for the SC2 scene as a whole but players who performed well in this league. | ||
