First and Bomber are the favorites to take this group.

One does not simply walk into a match versus Grubby.

Grubby is good enough to crush Bomber.

You need Rain to beat Bomber. And it's not because he's incredible at PvT, but because it's Bomber vs Rain.

Good article, agreeable predictions on matches. However..

"Even as new players like (Z)Scarlett and (Z)Suppy are proving themselves.." Do you really consider either of these players new? Lmao.

E: Maybe you just meant new pros, whereas Polt has been well-known for a while. Ignore me if this is the case, I'm slow .

I just want to say:
Props to the writers. CosmicSpiral.
this is the best text I've read in a long time. I love this statment because it's what I've been thinking about alot but could never articulate.

We are the Generation of Irony. And by irony I don’t mean the relatively harmless, absurd attitude of the hipster subculture. Rather, I’m referring the deep cynicism and distrust that comes from too much knowledge and too little control.

I agree, the group hinges on which Bomber we get today.

Rather, I’m referring the deep cynicism and distrust that comes from too much knowledge and too little control. We have more access to more information than at any other time in human history; it tells us that disillusionment abounds in an absurd world and there’s little we can do about it. Lies, half-truths, broken promises, and ignorance are prevalent at all levels of society. Sarcasm in this case is self-defense. It protects us from judgment, commitment and the pain of ruined expectations. This attitude leaks into everything

Wow. Deep bro.

You should work for a big press or big paperwork news...

So well written. So well said.

Charismatic through a arrogant and detached world. Beautiful!

The MUST read article out of the 4.
And, well….he’s Jaedong. And because he’s Jaedong, he is probably pretty damn sick of 2nd places. And because he’s Jaedong, and he’s sick of 2nd places, he might just hit SSJ (Super Sayain Jaedong) level 2 and kill everybody. -Artosis

Yes, new pros. Thank you for correcting me on that.

No way does Polt beat Bomber in a TvT.

      (1941) Polt  0-0  Bomber (1818)    
-----------------------------------------
30.66% 2-0 0-2 19.92%
27.37% 2-1 1-2 22.06%
-----------------------------------------
58.03% 41.97%

Median outcome: Polt 2-1 Bomber

Estimated by Aligulac. Modify.

Bomber's really good in TvT. Polt's as good if not better. He's a master of bio-tank.


Aligulac ratings/predictions mean next to nothing. Polt's rating is greatly boosted due to the amount of foreigners he plays.
