So Dreamhack finally realized that running their tournaments is just a waste of time and they just give teaja the money?

Jokes aside i hope that it wille be more fun, who will cast this?

I think Taeja should have to play Maximusblack and Combatex (both playing Zerg) at the same time on one of those training maps with the rocks that prevent you from attacking too early. That be more fun.

Thorzain's wost matchup is TvT no? TeaJa is god of TvT and practically every matchup so it's not guna be close. They could've gotten a little weaker opponent for ThorZain at least...

Ya something fun and goofy would be a lot more entertaining then some heavily lopsided showmatch between a mid-teir foreigner and probably the best Korean Terran in the world right now... just my opinion though. I'm not expecting a surprising result but hey, i've been wrong before.

Will be fun, predicting ThorZaIN to practice hard as he said on Barcraft Stockholm and hopefully take a map off TaeJa.

They should play until Thorzain wins a map.

sadly those really nice players are not good enough atm

Nanis game is soo sharp, gotta love that as a viewer and deep fan of strategy
and there's a wider spin to this so read up first plz, no blame to Nani.

And he is actually much more relaxed since a while back, and it really does show,
also in his games, staying sharp and relaxed is best combo ;-)
and even if many times is a rough truth teller in an outspoken way,
he really dares to be open and honest, which is refreshing.
Plus his social skills are increasing steadily, maturing and staying on top.

Should have invited HerO instead of Naniwa anyways. Yes, right HerO is always a better player than someone with good micro and nice all-ins. That is assuming they did not invite HerO anyways (also, Naniwa never won DH, did he :D?).

I'd love to see Thorzain pull a huge upset (it would certainly be a hell of a lot more entertaining), but this should be one-sided.

Also, this is why the EG-TL partnership was so bad. Not only were both teams thoroughly embarrassed in Proleague, it also destroyed the EG-TL rivalry. An EG vs. TL showmatch would have brought in so much hype and excitement back in 2011 and 2012, but not anymore. Dead rivalry

Yeah it's too bad. It used to be pretty exciting to see EG vs TL back in early sc2 but now it's just not the same. Even before the teams combined though I feel like the rivalry was already on life support. Liquid's Koreans just made it seem too one sided but at least there was still something there.

Not won a DH, no, but he's the Swedish Champion of the domestic cup which means that he indeed is a champion in the context of Greykarn's tweet.

After all the shit Jangbi was put through, I say we adopt him as an honorary Swede and get him back to SC2. Then he can replace Nani as king in the north and we'll have a nice person who is also good to root for.
