Yeah seriously, that was pretty silly. I haven't watched Grant cast before, but he was really miscalling a lot of things in game two. The suggestion that Clem should attempt to drop marines on Maru's tanks while there were 20 vikings right above them was my favorite.

If TY and Maru win 2-0 and Clem 2-1, are we gonna have all three with 4-1/6-3 scorelines. How does that work

Maru had a firm control on that game for like the four minutes before the end, but at least one of the casters was acting like Clem had the lead.

Fortune favours the brave. I am assuming Grant meant if Maru's movement and army rotations left such a possibility open, but he's pretty damn good in that regard, even with observer vision it was difficult to find too many opportunities to really pounce on that army.

Solar can't overtake any of Clem, Maru, TY.

Best case scenario for Solar is he beats Clem 2-0, then TY and Maru both lose 0-2. Then TY, Maru, Solar are tied 6-5 in maps but TY and Maru both won HTH against Solar. Clem would be 6-4, so wins out over Solar in map differences.

Yeah definitely. Clem's final army may have been more mobile, but in terms of strength it wasn't even close.

So Maru, TY, and Clem can bring it all the way to tie breaker matches if that happens?

Yep. Solar is out. The three players moving on will be Clem, TY, and Maru.

Basically the moral of the story is Solar got eliminated by a single nuke from Maru.

I'm not 100% sure, I think the best Solar can do is (if he 2-0s Clem and Maru and TY both lose 0-2) is tie Maru and TY so they're all 3-2 in series and 6-5 in sets and given he lost to both of them I can't see how he would qualify
