So, with herO winning a map, that means he's through, especially with DRG up vs Solar. So last spot is for Special if he wins or Solar loses or Solar if he pulls it back and Special doesn't.
If Special wins a map and Solar wins 2-1 I think Special is also through on H2H

I tihnk solar is out because he lost that first map vs DRG

Is Elazer trying? I am sorry to ask this but letting 2 banes walk into the mineral line, TWICE, no walling off on the natural, letting the Spire to be canceled. I mean how did he beat DRG playing like this?
Didn't look like it to me neither. But then again, he has no reason to try I guess.

SpeCial's dedication to forcing TvP mech, even in a potential elimination game, is admirable
|
Welp. herO 2-0's Special, so he claims 1st place. Special needs to hope that DRG can hold off Solar because if he wins he'll have 7 wins to Special's 6.
|
So now Special depends on DRG taking the last map, right, even tho he's already out. It seems unlikely DRG would fight that hard, right?

ionno why people are making such confident assumptions about player effort
If you've been watching SC2 more than casually, you'll know that eliminated players in round robins have ruined shit for other players PLENTY of times. I almost never question the effort level of eliminated players in IEM/GSL.

the whole of Latin America cheers for DRG?
also me. Let's go Special I mean DRG!
|
This was Serral ultimate plan all along
Lose to DRG and solar on purpose. And try to eliminate Special when he actually played quite well in this group

I don't think Elazer wasn't trying to win, but it did feel like he was off his game. Maybe he was in a bad headspace or didn't actually believe he could win.
Felt like and old Creator kind of series.

Maybe Elazer was just having a bad day and would have done better if they didn't split the group into 3 days

Oh no, depending on how ESL draws up these brackets, cuz I can never be sure how they do it. But if it's in traditional ABCD format, then I think Reynor, Serral and Maru are all going to end up on the same side of the bracket.
e: assuming Maru takes 1st place in his group.

DRG being tricky and Solar does the classic "guess I just kill you then"

"The zerg cabal does it again"

Hasn't he meched at least once in every series? All loses also iirc.

ooh, Im sorry for Juanito
|
Damn, Juanito Feels bad, man

I don't see how the second vs third seed matters much. The third seed don't look worse.
