The tournament will return 1v1.

Official Website: https://next.163.com/match/nextsc2_2020summer

I doubt the format is the same as SC1...

The price pool allocation is the most horrible thing I ve ever seen.
Why don t just make it winner takes it all straight away?
That is so pathetic. Tournaments like this don t help the slightest to grow an healthy and stable scene. The rich just get richer, everyone else bites the dust.
Also would have prefered it to stay as a teamleague. Pretty disapointing

Should be "Summer" instead of "Spring," no?

Nice line-up!

Too bad there's no Maru, but Clem is not a bad "we have Maru at home" replacement to fill out the Terran depth of the tourney.

Yeah, XiGua managed to have a positive winrate in GTC, contrary to Serral, who is nowhere near his level, so it's good they got the real deal to participate in NeXT.

Wardi and Crank will be covering playoffs. Ogaming does groups on Twitch so there is something.

I can definitely recommend Scarlett vs. sOs from today. 1 hour game on Eternal Empire that went all the way from 20k/10k banks to both players being broke on 120 supply. Features patient back and forth positional play, a disastrous engagement just as the end seemed near, one player running completely out of detection at >50 minutes and getting into trouble because of it, and more.

Those were some Stardust number of sentries. The zerg really just needs a bunch of ravagers to bile the army rather than the force fields, since there's an unlimited number of forcefields to rewall, and PartinG's never going to miss the rewall.

Eyy ZvZ Final (srsly tho wth was that game between Zest and Solar, first Solar plays like an absolute baboon to give Zest a comfy position and then Zest plays a horrendous lategame )

As bad as the PvZ balance seems to be, you can't blame balance for Zest having only 3 stargates at ultra late game, and then not even consistently producing out of them. Those last two games were massive throws imo.

Mh yeah game2 was just a showcase of Zest missing his timing and then carrier templar like he played it (nice recall xD) seemingly just gets rolled by a remax (even tho Solars fights were really bad). And game 3 idk what was going on in their heads.

Its a shame this was not offline, the venue, production, prizes and trophy, and competition was great. On the other hand we got an absolutely awesome cast from Wardii so not complaining too much :D

Also of note, Rogue didn't drop a single map this tournament. It's more doable due to the low map-count matches, but still very impressive considering his competition. He went 4-0 in the group stages, and 7-0 in the playoffs.
