Anyone else notice how Rogue struggled to hold that massive trophy? It looked like it was too heavy for him to hold for long.

The Katowice vice-president who brought it also struggled to lift it.

Have you just seen the size of that trophy ? When it was next to Rogue or when he tried to lift it, it covered all of his upper body from his waist to his head. That thing is so massive I wouldn't be surprised if it's weighing 15-20kg.

Try lifting that above your head without struggling when you don't work out.
Stats is the best player of LotV.

The last game reminded me a lot of a certain Byul vs Revival game.
Many of the coolest moments in sc2 happen due to worker harassment

Well done Rogue. Proved to me he isn't a flash in the pan, and Serral has done foreignerland proud too.

Gutted for Maru but he went through one hell of a tear this tournament.

I really hope we get a complete overhaul of maps soon. Removal of watchtowers between base paths was definitely healthy but the amount of high ground hiding spots for overlords that serve this same purpose seems really absurd.
I may appear to be an emotionless sarcastic pos, but just like an onion when you pull off more and more layers you find the exact same thing everytime and you start crying

I want terrans to be able to win badly, I'm really tired of these ZvZ / PvZ finals.

Classic being 4-0ed is anti hype as fuck but I'm glad Rogue beat him so we won't ever have to hear patch zerg again (soO and Stats didn't even qualify tho :X)

If you can't accept all three of these, your logic has deficits.


your logic has deficits if you can't accept that sc2 is a complex game, player skill and performance is uneven and difficult to predict and yhr outcome of a tournament is influenced by a myriad of in- and out-of-game factors.

There's really a simpler solution to PvZ's woes.

Put Overlord drop tech on lair. It eliminates the early ling drops that are forcing Protoss into Stargate openers in the match up. Once you've done that, you allow Protoss to start developing timings that can take advantage of some of the meta things Zerg are fond of at the moment.

It's really the best solution. We've seen from this tournament many times how helpful Overlord Drops are past Lair tech, and other than forcing PvZ into Stargate openers we hardly ever see pre-Lair overlord shenanigans in the other match ups.

It's the appropriate move, if a move is needed.

Honestly, when a final result is 4:0 something is bad with balance, no matter what happens on the entire tournament. The most boring games were on the finals WTF.
Balance means nerf Protoss

Classic looked just as distressed in the finals as Serral looked in the semifinals, which I found ironic.

If you dont agree with me on my arbitrary made up premises, then you are factually wrong. /thread

Also shame on the PR makers for not correctly guessing the top 16 players by name and rank. #FakeStevemustbefired
