DRG / Dream one was pretty hard too, but yeah I feel like any combination of two players can advance. Trap - Ragnarok seems to be the most logical choice, but I see every player getting realistic chances tomorrow.

Wait, this does not start at the normal time correct? Because of the group nominations after the matches? I think its like 2 hours earlier or so?

90 minutes earlier because of the group selection afterwards.

Oof, Trap waiting for that second Oracle screwed him up quite a bit. If he had gone on 1, he would have probably doubled that probe kill count.

Oh you're right, I thought of him right away because Tasteless said something.

Either way, that observering got real weird that game.

Buildings vs units balance has been awful for years tbh. DK is so bad at his job. Ever since bunker build time nerf it's been completely onesided.

terran should be able to crush units with their buildings, we have been asking for this for years now smh


Yeah I mean at least have some respect for fundamental laws of physics.

Plus the animations would be way cool

Ragnarok tried to do a "What is up, I'm Nestea" on that Tank fortification, but it turns out he is not Nestea.

I really wish this was at least effective on those denial burrowed zerglings on mining bases for a CC to land in at the very minimum.

Good work by Bunny overall, his play especially going to a more macro oriented TvZ looks pretty solid now.

While I really like Ragnarok and the baneling heavy comps but the recent nerf to their damage really hurts if your style is throwing banelings into marauder and thor comps over and over. That style is not viable anymore, you need to get something else to take out the none light units. Zerglings gets mined and banelings do too little damage, Thors counter mutas too..

interesting that they see INno - Soulkey as the best finals in GSL history. It's definitely up there, but I don't know, Mvp - Squirtle seems to have everything you can want from a legendary finals.

Edit : I dunno, maybe I misunderstand and they are going to showcase some of the best finals, among which INno - Soulkey, in that case I can't say anything ofc

What's that track that plays when a player wins GSL?

EDIT: Also Soulkey vs INno was actually super disappointing IMO. 3 stomps, then 3 cheeses, then the only actual good game in the series ending in a massive throw. Squirtle vs Mvp and MMA vs DongRaeGu are the only real acceptable answers.

hmmm honestly felt like he waited a bit too much and could have committed harder on the natural

of course he's in a very fine position, but he butchered one in the previous game so I can't be too confident

The funny thing about this DT meta is that it didn't came from any specific change or patch, players just realized they are really bullshit and that shives nice with any protoss meta.

I think Trap has it if he just plays a defensive game and waits for Bunny to be too wasteful with his drops / pushes

I was there and I can hereby confirm it was one of the weakest line-ups I'd ever seen in any premier-tier tournament aside from a certain old WCG featuring Marineking* and Adelscott.

The semifinals were Grubby vs Slivko and Sting vs Vortix. Everyone around was supporting Grubby, but only because they'd literally never heard of the other three.

It is the only in GSL where he even approaches 50% (even breaks it), but ok

ZvP definitely is not Ragnarok's best matchup.

It is the only in GSL where he even approaches 50% (even breaks it), but ok

Also aligulacs Form Ranking Puts it at 75% way above the Others.

It is both career wise and in the very recent matches, that's true, but Ragnarok kept getting eliminated by Protoss last yea, not the greatest spotlight for his best matchup.
I don't remember him beating a top Protoss if not in weekly cups as well.

He died to a desperate Nydus All In after getting super far ahead with it. What's to be upset about? Patience having a blind spot in his base or having an artosis pylon powering all of his production?

It happens dude. Ragnarok got lucky, it happens. Stop making a balance complaint out of it.

If you complain about balance over matches where balance CLEARLY wasn't the issue you aren't helping your cause at all, quite the opposite in fact.

I'm just saying that it's months since most (at least 90%) of the protoss wins I've seen were adept all in and those are boring and repetitive.Almost every other game are a loss.That's my experience as a viewer,I'm not talking about balance.

I don't really know what could you change that wouldn't end in zerg dying everygame to some 2 base push. They just nerfed the only way zerg can defend stargate play and archon drops.

Obviously Ragnarok is nowhere near the Level of Rogue, Dark, Serral, Reynor. But this was still promising today

Ragnarok and Trap have a lot of explaining to do that Bunny got out in first place tbh. Good work by Bunny but seriously disappointing by Ragnarok (again). And there's no way Trap should lose to Bunny either. Congrats to Bunny though, he has been in the GSL for quite a while now.

No the flank was nice and he had to attack to prevent the toss to reach the 200 pop while he was low on tech.

I mean it's Stalker colossus you can Just Tech vs that and defend while you have mutas, attacking it Off creep into a Defensive toss Position ist dumb esp. because Trap already Had 4 colossus.

200 pop of stalker colo with 2 or 3 archons is still scary to deal with ravagers/bane, you generally need a second wave with your reprod which requieres a bit of time to set up un less you get a crushing fight with a 360. Ragnarok didn't have this much creep either so he couldn't allow it and decided to engage.
As he lost, it was probably wrong but it is definetely not a full retard mode. Trap just played well, no need for his opponent to play bad.

Not sure, if the top 4 seeds are based on GSL points or the top 4 of Season 1.
Probably the points (wich are different from EPT points):

As he lost, it was probably wrong but it is definetely not a full retard mode. Trap just played well, no need for his opponent to play bad.

Trap Played Well but he didn't do alot of Eco damage this game and only did light pressure mostly through the game, to lose that as zerg Takes alot of mistakes which Rag did imo (Like attacking too much with Bad armies/being way to wasteful with His Units while Not getting Tech/Upgrades even tho He Had the Eco).

They mentioned in Bunny's interview that all four seeds were Terran, so dbRic1203 is correct I think.

Big question today is whether TY wants Special in his group or not.

First pick Special, build a group of life with him. Then swap him out and throw him to the wolves.

So do we ever actually got an official announcement of TY joining Afreeca Freecs other than suddenly appearing on final wearing the team shirt?

That's so funny that even after years and tons of different metas most of which favored Zerg, Scarlett still hates ZvP and wants to avoid it any cost.

Pretty sure the plan was to swap Rogue/PartinG for Bunny. TY doesn't want to throw his friend and team mate into a group of death.

It's also a way to punish Special for what he did. Let him deal with his own mess.

I like this from Special, he can pick whoever he wants and TY can do whatever he wants, not like any other players get to just swap a player however they want. This was the best move Special could make and he shouldn't feel bad about it. He should be trying to make it as difficult as possible for the Champion to repeat (and for himself to get through).

I'm still skeptical about Parting tbh. I think people overrate him too much for narrowly beating Maru. TY showed that Parting is kind of a one trick pony.

Although C and D are probably better on average than A and B, the upper ro.8 bracket is going to be the more difficult

Fair enough, but Solar and Ro16 doesn't line up well. And Trap is not exactly terrifying these days. Oh and Dream has something to prove yet even though he had a good day in GTC.

Also, we don't know if Cure is broken from his finals loss. Zest is also very up and down these days, even though he's a top toss obviously.

I guess you have a point. My thinking was basically that the top 2 from A and B are both really easy to call, whereas C and D are less certain.

Well actually, 2nd place in A is not too clear but it's an easy group regardless.

Still can't wrap my mind around Innovation first picking Dark, I feel like the ex SKT players aren't as close as the other ex Kespa team mates lol. As a former KT fan, really didn't want Zest and Stats in the same group too... sigh

Those are really good groups.

I'm happy for DRG. I had this feeling he would get in TY's group, and since the champion has an insane advantage, he indeed crafted quite an easy group. I can see DRG getting his ro8, TY of course should be a lock for ro8.

Superb group B. INno and Dark should be favorites, but hey PartinG was in the semifinals by beating Maru while INno and Dark got stuck in ro8 last season. It will be difficult for Bunny to exist here.

Insane group. Maru, Solar, Trap are excellent reprensentants of their race, probably all top 3. And since Dream has been tearing it recently, well this group should give us some fireworks.

And group D is just as insane, I mean Cure, Stats, Zest and Rogue who practices again ? Come on, it's so hard to predict who will advance.

I love every group, ofc group A is weaker but the perspective of DRG or a foreigner in ro8 is very exciting.

All in all : just can't wait !

Special did an amazing job basically picking a player as good as or better than him forcing stats to keep both him and scarlett which gives himself a good chance of getting out

great job by special tactically!

Seriously amazing groups, that banter from Special made it all super fun as well. Can't wait!


Special did an amazing job basically picking a player as good as or better than him forcing stats to keep both him and scarlett which gives himself a good chance of getting out

great job by special tactically!

I mean... it was the final draft round, by default every player left was at least as good as Special. And TY was never gonna swap him or Scarlett out anyway, he wanted both of them in his group.

I think he shot himself in the foot. The plan was probably to have him play Bunny, who should be an easier opponent for Special.

Does anyone know where to see the zest ceremony and rogue ceremony? That question in the interview really caught my attention

I felt like it was mostly just poor play from ragna. His engagements and overall unit control felt very off to me.
Valor is a poor substitute for numbers.

I feel like it might've been a poor translation? maybe they meant style instead of ceremony?

They were referring to Zest lifting the IEM trophy with one hand in 2015 vs. Rogue struggling to hold it with both hands and having to awkwardly set it down in 2018.
