Love it. Love this bloodbath road to EWC schedule. Great sc2 content almost every week

I'm assuming these are region locked?

Atleast they have been last year. And usually, if they are not region-locked, they are called "Server qualifiers"

Would be my guess since they have a global qualifier aswell
|
Got it, thanks for the info

Ahh, classic Farhan..

I can't wait to get bopped in the first round of the qualifier.
Should be fun though!

For EU, pretty sure it's going to be Serral and Reynor qualifying. The other regions would be more of a toss up.

I see Scarlett and Special are participating in these qualifiers which made me wonder why they weren't at Dallas. Did either of them mention anything?

Shame Serral and Reynor got knockout in Dreamhack. Would have been nice to see the other EU player battling out for the final 2 spots of the qualifiers
|
The EU players still need to fight for top 5 to get to the Global Qualifier.
|
|
Great run by Firefly in the Asian qualifier today.
|
|
Kinda hope Astrea gets through the Global Qualifier, but I wouldn't bet much on it.
|
trigger is kind of tearing it up rn. Could have a deep run in a larger tournament akin to Astrea's first international breakthrough!
|
Trigger being the first Basilisk boy to qualify, wild. Looking forward to the EU qualifier today.

kinda bad that the main stream isnt listed under the event

Protoss need to get Storm for free
|
Reynor seems in good shape again.
|
im so sad Cham didnt make it. it looks it was close against Astrea
|
It's disappointing that the global qualifier is only 8 slots and is based on the region qualifier results. Would have been nice to have a giant open bracket for the final qualifier. I know we just had that at Dallas but it's different when all the top contenders are present.
|
Nice to see that Reynor still seems to have his ability to turn on his tournament mode when needed. ShowTime forgetting storm in that last game was tragic, though.
Also Serral walking 9-0 over the European protosses, haha.

I actually like the current format, it gives all the regional qualifiers extra incentive rather than just the straight qualification spot.
Whats interesting is how the spot from Stara Zagora will get passed down because most of the top players might have already qualified (Serral/Clem/Reynor even Showtime/Trigger).

|
The continuous contamination to delay Storm researched was a nice idea from Rogue.
|
The lower bracket isn't streamed at all?

Man Gumibro got out TvT'd by Ryung. Sad days T_T
Zoun vs Cure is an absolute must watch series and it's not even over yet
|
Cure really shouldnt have lost this but imo really misplayed the basetrade.
|
Yeah, Cure was not ready to fly any of the building out and lost all of his worker during the base trade.
|
Did protoss Players get that much better with storms or why are terrans again liking to eat Them this hard.

I just think Protoss players realize Storm now is better than Colossi/Disruptor and commit into it more frequently and earlier. Also the lack of long range unit from Terran meaning its harder to zone out the Templar, and the hallucination Phoenix plus Obs always give out the Terran army location for better planning of the storm.

With only TvT ahead: Is there really a chance Ryung of all people would qualify for EWC? Gotta say, I really didn't foresee that the korean qualifies would become the most fun ones. Feels like so many players are either inconsistent or on the same level as soon as you take out Maru and herO.
Technically also true for Europe, but it feels like that after Serral, Clem and Reynor, there is still a tier of player before everyone else. But in Korea? Really everyone could take it
|
What also crazy is the spot from GSL S2 might fall down all the way to the 5th-6th player as 5 players there already qualified, so Rogue might just need to beat Gumiho to qualify for EWC.

2 base SCV pull for the win

For some time already but it always takes a bit for the meta to catch up
|
Sad end for creator, if Gumiho qualifies through GSL then creator gets to the global qualifiers despite losing this match right?
|
... poor Creator... again....
|
Creator consistently losing in the most frustrating ways imaginable, complete with GuMiho reverse sweeping and accidentally manner muling. Poor guy.
|
live by the reaper, die by the reaper
|
Somehow Elazer only practice the build of +1 armor Roach against 2-2 Bio?
|
|
Serral cruising the EU qualifier 13-1, as was probably to be expected.
|
Serral look stable as always, but Reynor chose to go Muta twice in a row wasnt doing anything, and his opening being too greedy as well.
|
I think ZvZ is actually Serral's best match up now, he's lost one ZvZ series in 2024 and 2025 combined (his recent 3-4 to Dark.) Considering he only loses to Clem in ZvT, ZvP might also be his worst matchup. Funny how times change.
|
Let's hope round 2 of showtime reynor is better than the last one.
|
Already much cleaner play from Showtime
|
|
Who is this and what has he done with Mr Sieber.
|
can this guy close the series? LUL
|
Man reynor in this phase of the game looks disgusting with all the nydus worms etc.
|
Imagine Showtime wouldnt just lose the game at the first multiprong.
|

This is what happens when Reynor is the fastest player in the game (maybe only surpassed by Clem).
|
Hopefully Showtime can still manage to qualify in Bulgaria or the global qualifiers, I think he deserves it.
|
Sad for showtime he looked pretty good but reynor in macro games looks pretty disgusting.
|
Considering Reynor 3-0 herO in Dallas, Showtime did great, he just missed the spot slightly with the Glaive Adept in game 7. I think he could have done much more damage if he mass them a bit more.
|
Why is another surprised / hoping for a different outcome?
Showtimes has proven to us for over a decade that he can’t win “when it really matters”. He will beat who he is suppose to beat. But he will never beat any contenders
|
Is there any chance of reps release?
