Top 3 all protoss, when was the last time this has happened in a non-weekly?

Also, the tournament field proving favorable for ShowTime as I predicted.

Still feels like apart from sOs these were the strongest players in this lineup - and sOs himself is a giant wildcard atm. Not surprised about this top 3 regardless of balance imo

Bracket played a bit into that with heromarine and lambo getting zoun and showtime in the ro8 imo (also close series both of them).

ShoWTimE vs Zoun in grand finals is what I would have expected from this HSC, other than maybe HeroMarine making a deep run or Lambo. sOs overperforming, not sure how he could beat Ryung that easily but happens I guess
Looks like ShoWTimE can redeem himself from that HSC loss vs Gumiho, he looks more in shape than Zoun today

This sOs guy can barely qualify for Code S, but he goes overseas and immediately stomps foreigners like it's 2014.

Could Showtime request a longer break between the final matches? A mental reset could be helpful right after getting 3:0d like that.

Edit: Man, being so close twice has to feel bad. Congrats to Zoun.

Funny how HSC has become the last holdout of Korean dominance despite being so European heavy, that's 3 in a row!

Great stuff to Zoun though.

Let's go Vitality Zoun!!
The Koreans are dominating this year so far, with DH Dallas and now HSC. The EWC will be the real test though

Another expected result from Showtime. He can’t beat any Koreans when the stakes are high

Although on paper, Zoun should have won this. My heart still aches for Showtime here.

To be fair the Europeans have shown strong in a whole bunch of other tournies

Kinda weird year to properly gauge the shape of the field though for sure

Oh man, ShowTime was so close, although losing at that spot in the tournament and in that way is on brand for him.

GGs to Zoun. Fun tournament as always.

Would Ryung count as a foreigner if Taeja took him on that vacation?

Showtime beeing Showtime and delivers exactly what is expected. On paper Zoun was the only player in that tournament better than him.
Congratz to Zoun
