Not the race, he just does not have championship mentality. You realize he is the player with the 2nd most Premier Tournament wins? That he plays this game since over a decade on elite level? I guess that this is simply bait. Clem must now be pretty happy to not face Maru in the Semis. | ||

Look i think the Format is dumb as Well but lets Not pretend its the only Thing at fault Here, still sad i feel Like Maru would have been better for the Next Matches but lets Hope cure can Ride this high and maybe even repeat His top2 from Last Time. | ||

Or maybe at the beginning of 2018 but not for long | ||

I could only think of Inno, Zest and Life but none of them kept it up for a long time either | ||

The Twitch chat is also so incredibly annoying with all these balance-whiners, !drop-spammers and player x is washed comments. Can't we simply appreciate the greatness coming out of these guys? The incredible matches we witnessed... I don't get it. | ||

Well done for Cure but sadly he doesn't stand a chance at beating the later players | ||
