Some good games today. Showtime's defense was brilliant in game 2.

it's really amusing how Blizzcon has played out according to "smart-fan" logic so far

(I'd say "is rogue good or not" was the most contentious issue between annoying superfans)

Rogue said when he won Katowice he was gonna take it easy until blizzcon. So it shouldn't really be a suprise if he looks better here than at the last few events
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

Was a bit disappointed in Classic today. He still has great chances to get out of his group but his execution seemed off. Maybe just a shaky first day, but Stats and Showtime looked a bit more impressive.

Looks like we're most likely going to get at least a few rematches. Pretty interested to see how those will pan out cos the rematch curse tends to be very strong. Really loved how Showtime played today against Dark but it was still a bit nail-biting and I wouldn't be surprised if Dark comes back and crushes him. I also feel like TY is just gonna proxy the hell out of the Neeb, cos it seems like a bit of a weakness of Neeb.

Yeah no Rogue looked by far the worst out of the group winners.

Which doesn't tell much because Maru and Serral dominated hard and Stats was impressive.

I'd say Rogue looked like he'd never lose to Classic the player, but it's hard to gauge his form against other opponents, wasn't a good showing vs SpeCial

He played well in the first game, I wouldn't call taking an advantage from the invincible nydus and running with it very impressive though. And the 2nd game was just a total joke from Classic.

His group was stacked, so it was not easy at all to look impressive.

Thanks to the failures/disappointments of TY and Dark, Stats and Maru didnt have to give everything to dominate.

Compare that to how Rogue got obliterated by Neeb in GSL and I think Rogue is back in BlizzCon $$$ form

Classic out. Damn.

I thought this time he would get through and grab the trophy. As zerg player I normally cheer for my race, but Classic's approach to the game is a treat to watch.
