Good writeup. Solar performing well enough to be traded for Soulkey (whose own loss helped in the matter, too), which he should take pride in. Hopefully it's a good trade for me.

Reminds me of that Simpsons episode (Burns' Heir, season 5) where Lenny has to explain why he should get to keep his job without using the letter E. Reading this thread, he should be fine (note that he doesn't actually fail, but is fired anyway).

Technically Kal lost to soO in the preseason for his first broadcasted hots game.

Please imagine a nasal geeky voice to go along with these words.

Lol that elitest with his perfect A* record. Damn robots ;_;


Think article tiny bit harsh on Jin Air, we do forget they are a knew set up, yes they were team 8 but they have different management now and new players. sOs remember was about to retire before Jin Air through him an offer?

Prime above Cj, JinAir and MVP? Lol.
How much did Opterown pay you for dat Prime bias? I mean, yeah, everybody expected them to be rolled 3-0 both times. so they exceeded expectations, but they'll still be dead last at end of season...

Gonna be very interesting to see how Kal does from here on. It would be utterly refreshing to have a new face in the SC2 scene come in and turn things on their head a bit.

These are ratings for Week 1, not predictions for the future.

Separately, it's fun to jump on the Jila bandwagon, but let's be honest, all he did is pull off two 1-base all-ins, one for a straight win and one for a big lead. His lone HotS macro game (his preseason game against soO) was not impressive. But I'd love for a hero to emerge for Prime, lord knows they need one.

Kal has single handedly revived my passion for Proleague, I don't even care about the fact that he plays Protoss. Can't wait to see more of his games.

Hey, I mentioned the grade "exceeding expectation" in reference to Prime, doesn't that count for something?
I'll try to be more positive when speaking about Prime.

My faith in Kal has been rewarded (WTF was that game vs Soulkey ? )

Jin Air though, please don't get stomped next week...

They probably would if WJS didn't disband.

Was not expecting that from Kal haha, Pretty big upsets. I especially loved the game vs soulkey. I'm inspired to use that proxy gate/forge strategy now lol.

I feel like handing out the dreaded E to Jin Air is kinda wonky since they went to ace and only played 1 match. But I guess I can live with it.
edit: sOs deserves an E though
Like Tinkerbelle, I leave behind a sparkly residue.
