No, it's not stupid. Artosis is really a warlock who actually resents Starcraft 2 and casts spells to put curses on players to undermine the competition. How come you're the only one who doesn't see it?


I think it's the opposite. He loves StarCraft so much that the universe has to compensate by cursing the players he supports. Think about it. Tasteless is CONFIRMED™ for having lost his passion, and yet his prediction is the Tasteless blessing. Together they balance each other out.

I think the point is... Favorites do well UNTIL Artosis PREDICTS them to win. Then they lose... tuss the course

I have a hard time believing a lot of this isn't just down to confirmation bias, especially in the older results. Now that the Artosis Curse is a thing nobody even remembers whenever Artosis was right, but everybody jumps at the chance to dig up right predictions.

I applaud the effort people are putting into this, but I think this way of collecting data is bound to get skewed results.

And now Innovation is the latest victim and not even getting out of the group or getting 3'rd in it... Artosis curse is stronk.

Stronk.... Too Stronk....

@Artosis any chance you can predict that John Jacobs gets the management position we applied for?

Does anyone know who Artosis predicted to win Group D now that Alive is out?

Well, First never had a chance in the first place.

Poor Polt, though.


Well, there's still Bomber's Law to deal with.

I thought that was a little strange. MMA isn't that good anymore and Scarlett is dominant vs terrans.

Maybe Artosis curse doesn't work on females?

I think Scarlett wrote some anti-artosis witchcraft on her hands before the game.

I don't think that counts. He was kind of cryptic about his prediction. He didn't say anything like "scarlett 2-1". I don't think I can put one down.

On stream he refused to get baited into making a prediction, but he did say he hoped Scarlett would win.

That's true. I guess I can make it a cheer.
