if the tournament has been good does that mean we get a trash final or a good final?

am I crazy or don't the WC finals go Dark - Reynor => Reynor - Zest ? Rogue - soO was before, right ?

If Zest wins he is a GSL, IEM Katowice and world champion. that would be epic.


His resume was kind of Rogue. 2 times Code S champion, 2 times IEM Katowice champion (if he win).
The only title he missed was WCS Blizcon.

I don’t think Maru or Inno have won either Katowice or Blizzcon right? Which seems pretty nuts given their resumes

Maru's made ro4 like 5 times and thrown gargantuan leads in at least 3 of them. INno never made past ro8
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

It's because Katowice counts as WC also previously.

What’s the betting odds that in at least one game lings will walk through a botched wall or a unit won’t be in position?

Yeah, game 1 was pretty cool.

To those worried that Parting's GF sitting next to him could help him cheat: there is a myriad of other ways this could be done in an online tournament, it's just impossible to police them all. For example, any player could output their screen to two monitors at the same time, and have someone sit on the other one off-camera. Or write a program to watch parts of your screen (i.e. minimap, resources) for you and make a sound alert when there is movement on the minimap (doesn't even require proper machine learning, you could throw something rule-based together that would work fine) - again, this would be really easy to do. Unless the games are played on computers provided by ESL, and in a room they monitor, you simply cannot prevent this 100%. If anything, having her sit there in plain view is evidence that there is nothing to hide.
