But for example, having a group of 8 players where 4 is tosses it kind of sticks out that all 4 are eliminated, rather than to reason like you do. There were more than 50 percent toss playing in the tourney and almost 90 % was eliminated... Imagine if there were 18 terrans in the tourney and only 4 went to the playoffs (and where 2 of those 4 were moving on because of two groups with 5 terrans). I think TL.net would break because of the endless salt. You got to love forum math... 14/18=78% were eliminated. 2 strong tosses were eliminated as close 5ths in the groups, if both went through, things would look very normal. That so many tosses showed up should be worrisome for the depth of pro zergs and terrans. | ||

Pre replacements there were meant to be "only" 15 toss, but toss is very over represented in the third tier of non-Korean pros (the sort of people who qualify for most DHM but never make deep runs.) I don't think it's anything to be worried about though. | ||

The lack of a English B-stream is weird but other channel are casting the 2nd game, but now everything are just on one series. | ||

I can understand playing waterfall instead until the meta settles, even if it is smaller. | ||

Ouch, Reynor looked helpless in that game 2, Astrea played him like a fiddle! Nice to see no respect from the US toss. | ||

That so many tosses showed up should be worrisome for the depth of pro zergs and terrans. what i was supposed to write was "... almost 90 % of the eliminated players where toss players" (i.e. 14 out of the 16 eliminated, which is roughly 90 percent). But my point in my first comment was that i did not agree that the result of 14 of the 16 elimated was toss just because there were a lot of toss players. At least no to this extent. But nevermind. | ||
