Huh. Never really thought about that. Do players get to keep the trophy? I thought it would be something they take pictures with and then give back to the organisation. If not, getting a new trophy every time might be quite a costly affair for for tournament organisers, no?


I'm sure Alibaba can figure something out

"all the players‘ level in the competition was really high" I know pros say this all the time to be respectful to their competition, but can he really say this about WESG with a straight face? After how hard he and Maru stomped almost every other competitor and all the 3-0's we saw?


ahahaha i was thinking the same thing when i read this
I like starcraft a lot

But a pro-gamer can only do one thing in this situation – keep practicing and working hard. Especially in Korea the situation is quite sad right now, but maybe we can ‚revive‘ our scene if we continue to work.

Hmm, I'm starting to see a pattern here. Any problem can be solved by working hard it seems.

Plans for future? Work hard.
How to win a tournament? Work hard.
Get on a team? Work hard.
Save sc2? Work hard.

extrapolating:

Got a cold? Work hard.
your knee hurts? Work hard.
Feeling tired? Work hard.
Worn down and about to burn out? Work hard.

Wins the biggest tournament ever, and has to beg for at team. Sums up the state of SC2 pretty damn well. It's all ogre.

Very happy to see TY win. Most of the games were meh, but the finals were incredible. When TY plays his A game he seems to really incredible, imo even slightly better than the other top terrans. Unofrtunately, he doesn't always play his A game.
