Now Ragnarok just falling apart to a couple drops... He could've had a 2-0 start to this group.

Gotta say it feels quite good to see rogue playing like this, while i was recently really wondering why no zerg opted to do this vs the void ray turtle.


eh I'm questioning Stats' army comp a lot here


A few disruptors are necessary against this imo

IdrA gg from Ragnarok ? I wasn't watching

Ragnarok did the Queen drop roach ravager all in. He killed thirty something SCVs and totally crippled Cure was up something like 50 drones to 15 SCVs. He had three bases and his tech was fine/took no damage himself at home.

Then he just left...


the count showed 40 scvs dead. I think it would have been tough to hold the double medivac drop coming across the map but like after that may scvs killed why not try to play it out?

I agree my brain immediately said "ah ok Cure doesn't wanna play a game with 15 SCVs at 7 minutes fair enough go next" Then I realized it said "Victory Cure"...

Is this a bigger or smaller blunder than Solar winning a 40 minute game and then getting nuked?

Another edition of Stats being consistently great in the big events despite the community believing someone else is the best protoss for some reason?

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

sOs hasn't been a big game player since HotS. Stats has been for all of LotV, Trap hasn't ever.

Doing well under pressure and when it matters is different to just being a good player. I felt the same way about Cure last year. He had the hype but didn't "feel" like one of those champions.

are we just pretending that GSL Super Tournaments are tiny tournaments? Especially considering those were in studio and this is online

OK he didn’t win either but there is the small matter of Trap making 2 GSL finals too, he’s got a pretty solid CV

Katowice is great but I feel even more so than Blizzcon for whatever reason it’s the big crowning tournament where the best over the year don’t always perform and players who’ve done relatively little over the whole season make deep runs.

I mean Trap had a really disastrous Katowice but he’s had a great year/18 months, likewise Zest’s run last time round didn’t mean he’d been a consistently great player.

I find Solar's mistake to be more understandable and sympathetic. Tough call to say which one was technically the bigger blunder but I imagine they will both make a "top mistakes of 2021" list

It cost Solar his chance at the playoffs, it's gonna be painful if it does the same for Rag

honestly in the end it was closer than it maybe should have but imo it's more a testament of Stats' fighting spirit and resilience than of Rogue not playing well. Peak Rogue ? Hard to say. Good Rogue ? Hell yeah, and that's terrific news for the tourney

This felt like bit of trolling from Rogue. From the position he was in he could have won much sooner and much easier. That queen walk and hydra remax looked so stupid.
His early/mid game looked extremely good so far though. Happy to see that

What were the most memorable moments from IEM Katowice 2021 so far?

- Maru kills units worth 84 supply of Solar with a single nuke.
- Astrea builds a proxy Nexus in Trap's base and then recalls several Probes to cannon rush.
- Rogue does the Microbial Queen Walk against Stats.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.
