Can t remember the tournament, but I saw something similar out of Rogue somewhere else as well. I think it was vs Trap and it was on Rogues birthday as well for double the pain..
I m not quite a Rogue fan by any strech, but I hope he does well mentally... Loosing always sucks and those reactings make it look like he isn t boding to well with it lately
I am pretty sure he want to do something peculiar before the impeding military service. No doubt if he win IEM Katowice for the third times, he is the greatest player ever albeit with the questionable inconsistency.
Really not sure what to expect from this group except a blood bath, depending on Rogue's form it could be a clear cut group or a very close fest. I could see all players in here qualify...

I think it's semi-random for ro12: 3rd place vs 2nd place but you can't be matched with someone from your group. So for example Clem (3rd place) has 2/3 chances to be up against either Serral or Reynor (both 2nd place) in ro12, and 1/3 against the 2nd place from today group D. Not sure about ro8.

The dif in Rag's all-in/macro frequency depending on ZvP and ZvT has been kinda hilarious in recent matches.

Are you implying that there wasn't a valid reason for people to think Trap was the best

Yeah, Zest and Stats have always performed better at the big events. Seeing Trap finally winning is great but at Katowice it's usually the same players who step up.

I mean you're really working that 20/20 hindsight but I dunno how we're supposed to just ignore the state of Protoss over the last four months and guess that whoever did better at last Katowice is the best. And by that logic we should also have been really hyping sOs I guess
I dunno how Cure is supposed to have a better chance next game he got away with a lot of greed that time. I know he got kinda screwed by not scouting the mutas but Rogue just rolled him from slightly behind
