I assume you meant non-zerg player, but is this actually true?

yeah edited it


aren't you just saying "it didn't happen in 2022, and it took till day 3 of group stage in 2023"?
in which case i don't think its that special, really. like yeah, '22 was odd, but that's about it

I certainly remember Zerg civil war in 2022, but didn't know it extended into group stages. Yeah, IEM 2022 was more lopsided than Zergcon 2019.

Group C is so tight, Special could advance in first place or be eliminated depending on how it turns out. Kinda crazy.


I think Special is safe, at worst he's gonna be 2-3 and the two 2-2 player are playing against each others.

In which situation would Creator not advance? Even if he loses 0-2, he would be 3-2 overall with +2 map score, which is better than Spirit could go with 3-2 overall and +1, right?

Yea I'm pretty sure Group B is as straight up as it looks.

Gumiho vs Spirit is a battle for third place. Creator vs Reynor is a battle for 1st place. Showtime vs Astrea is a battle for last place.

I suppose if Gumiho wins and Creator loses he pops up to second place. So there's that too, but if Creator wins he'll move into first place instead.

Am I crazy? Neither the loser of Solar/Serral or DRG and Elazer can get to three win, so they can't kick herO and Special out. Did I miss somethig?

Great to have all four groups end at once so we can be 4x more confused than typical IEM Katowice

If Solar win 2-0, Serral win 2-1 and Special lose 2-0 to herO, what will decide the outcome of Group C?

Yeah this tournament wasn't this special thus far however I think it's still remarkable that this series ended.
And saying '22 was odd is a bit of an understatement, it's kinda insane that no Protoss or Terran could take a single series of them the entire tournament
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

I think, Special would be knocked out. That would give Solar and Serral each 7 map wins and Special only 6.

Yes he can. If Serral and Solar both win 2-0 and herO loses 2-0 he is out on mapscore. He needs to win 1 map to secure his spot.
