Lag spike into GG - nothing more fucking infuriating from a viewership perspective You didn't miss much tbh. Maru had the much better army, so he stimmed in and won. edit: Series like this always make me wonder how much the Korean player knows about their less known non-Korean opponent. Like if it was someone like Solar I'm sure he would have studied up on Cham's builds on top of having played against him online a bunch. But Maru is the complete opposite and I'm more wondering about if Maru knows at all who Cham is. | ||

I doubt that Solar would study Cham's builds, it's more likely he just knows from online cups. | ||

Brutal fucking bracket besides the match with Cham. It's PartinG/Dream. I'm also not sure where the confidence in TY is coming from, he's not exactly been playing at a level head and shoulders above his part of the bracket recently thanks to his Brood War dalliance. | ||

TY is the reigning Code S champion. Until that changes he gets my confidence. | ||

Does that mean they always will, of course not. If TY plays like he's in a Code S, then I don't see a reason why he wouldn't advance to the 4th round in that bracket. If he loses before that it will be an upset. That's all. | ||
