I was just commenting that it was funny he lost against Solar in SSL finals precisely because he wasn't scouting.


lmao gold league comment. It was gambling build for Solar as well in 4 player map. It is extremely hard to scout as last game otherwise, Dark would start in huge disadvantage.

He was probably thinking Korean star leagues. Don't think he's played in more than 2 international tournaments in his whole career.

probably my favorite article, has the most great- and epicness in it with darks storyline and his faith in himself. his group might turn out rather difficult though if snutes zvz is on point which i expect it to be and stats is also a tough opponent although i definitely favor dark vs him

"there needs to be 2 terrans in a group for Dark to lose" - sOs


Didn't he say that during GSL ? Because at the time every zergs struggled against Terrans but he's shown against both TY and ByuN that he could beat them in ZvT.

I see the finals as being either Dark vs. Stats or Dark vs. Solar, depending on how the RO16 feeds into the RO8. (Is that known yet?)

I'm hoping either TY or ByuN runs into Dark. Should make for an interesting match.

Best TvT series in LotV.


I completely forgot about that series cause it was last year.. Still though both Byun and TY have improved a lot since then, need to see a proper series between them (unsure who would win, probabaly TY)

This year's BlizzCon feels very hard to predict given the relatively low cross-over between Korean and non-Korean players in tournaments and the recent loss of team houses and coaching support for the prior KeSPA players. Normally I would agree that TY might have the edge, but now, I don't know...

I don't think the closure of ProLeague has had enough time to start manifesting in players fitness.

It's been weeks. These guys have been practicing for months. They left for America in the week after PL shut down.

The skill cap on SC2 seems so high that reaching its peak requires a whole bunch of factors to converge, including mental and emotional factors. Perhaps the loss of team houses hasn't affected the players' mechanics, but what about mind sets? I honestly don't know what to expect in that regard.

Edit: But regardless I look forward to some great games and hope all the players show their best. BlizzCon hype!
