The only thing that could be better would be if suddenly IdrA and Jinro qualified and met in Code A EU (no idea why would IdrA play EU but we're already looking at sane realistic predictions in back mirror).

WCS EU going GSL style low Terran.. :-(?

nah.

it's worse. there are plenty of terrans in code A. there are almost none in WCS europe challengerleague.


Historically there always were only a few decent foreign terrains. Thorzain and Lucifron if I recall. Foreign zerg and protoss players enjoyed better results

Stephano is back! Crazy how he can just retire and come out of nowhere and qualify. Hopefully he will take Challenger seriously.

Also grats to Golden, First, and Elfi!


Yeah he really outclassed demuslim by a long shot.
The games were awesome to see though, high quality games from both players.
But stephano was really of a different world, he's a crazy man.

I wouldnt say that and that doesnt address the problem that EU T had atleast same chances of qualifying and T was very well represented, they had a SHOT. Nowadays it seems like its a waste, and almost nobody is pulling it trough on challenger atleast.

Guess the premier will be the new terrans own challenger qualifiers as said.

Terrans ofc have cheeses (like bunkerrush) but they are harder to pull of or easier to defend against then a blink allin or so.

If you think that an 11/11 Bunker Rush is harder to pull off than a Blink all-in then you truly are lost...

You ever tried winning with 11/11?
It's pretty easy to hold of even if you scout it late.

Blink is not hard to pull of, and WAY harder to defend.


Difficult to execute =/= difficult to succeed with

I find it near impossible to win with a 200 worker max timing push--but that doesn't mean that its hard to max out on just workers.

STephano has been playing a lot lately. It is great to see him back. Maybe it is a summer thing like isn't he in college now? Maybe he figured he could play during summer freely. Naniwa I doubt will come back.

I love watching Stephano's stream and seeing him play with 4 hotkeys; reminds me of another reason not to play Terran. I knew he couldn't resist the money!
