Usually. But he has been struggling a lot with it in the past couple of months. Let's see if he made adjustments, it's his tournament after all so if he is truly in Roguejwa form we can expect him to easily advance here, smash at least Parting and Neeb and than give us another amazing finals by 4:0 Stats or Zest  | ||

It's always whoever steps up at the time that does well. Some players have a history of doing that, some don't. If Zoun had won Super Tournament 2 last year, DH Last Chance, and the first Super Tournament this year within the span of a few months I would have possibly considered him the best protoss player oh and if he also finished second at the Summer and Fall finals this year. Meanwhile Zest hasn't won a premier since 2016 and Stats hasn't since 2019 (although if we're eliminating things like Assembly or Super Tournaments that goes back to 2017) So yeah hindsight 20/20 har har Trap lost yesterday. Doesn't mean it wasn't a valid thought pre tournament Trap had a bad day. | ||

Playing vs Stats will be a great revealer, I can't wait | ||

You can make an argument that Solar was a hail mary nuke away from advancing from A as well. I'm not saying ZvT is imba or whatever other people are but like yeah a lot of Terrans advanced from the first two groups 8/12 players were Terran | ||

Doesn't mean it wasn't a valid thought pre tournament Trap had a bad day. Trap was absolutely playing the best out of all of them in the last 6 months or so. I'm not denying that. But he doesn't have the same ceiling as Stats or even Zest. I didn't expect him to go out last in his group, but I didn't expect him to step up and win the tournament either. I would have had Stats ahead of him, along with the recent world champions (serral, dark, rogue) even if none of them had won anything in recent months. | ||
