It looks brilliant when it works and sad when it doesn’t. Yeeeah that sorta how it works. sOs would be myungsik without those fucking championships, and that's fine. | ||

Well, she has made like 30k $ + salaries in 3 months of competition... basically more than every foreigner except for Serral and Neeb.... and she's third at WCS standings atm.... That's pretty ok for "just being there and not caring".... The fact that she loses to Neeb or Serral shouldn't surprise us, basically because both of them are clearly better SC2 players than Scarlett, even when she can be able to beat them. | ||

No way that's a premier lol. Also a tournament that exclude all European and korean player can have that much of a weight (same goes for the European one). | ||

Liquipedia definitions of what's premier or not are sometimes off so I don't really care anymore what they call it. They don't consider Serral's HSC win premier for some reason despite having the same prizepool (20k) as a lot of HSCs that are considered premier. Also they count Crossfinals and SSL challenger premier for some reason. | ||

I think WCS Winter is considered a Premier because it's a WCS stop even though it's almost fully online play and region-locked even further than normal. | ||

As for the tournament: It was okay, looks good layouts for players but the long wait between some of the games and the extra hour spent doing the FFA between the semi and grand finals was boring. It's like they had a contract to make the event last the whole day even though they only had 6 players and i missed the first minute or two of so many games because i was alt tabbed or afk during a break. Big Gz to Neeb! Gz to Scarlett too for that second place price money $$ | ||

She gambled on surprising him with repeated all-ins and unfortunately, Neeb did not tilt or play with the expectation that she should play standard after winning a game with an all-in. I hope she'll eventually win a WCS this year. Was a big shame that Scarlett and Reynor didn't make Blizzcon last year; I think they were both definitely top 8 foreigners in terms of skill. Scarlet´s lategame is beastly. And she cannot be contesting the crown for best of americas if she isn´t willing to play straightup lategame against her contestants. There must have been other reasons like fatigue or unwillingness to showcase builds. In any case that was quite a dissappointing final. | ||
