Trap I’m rooting hardcore for as he was my tip, and I enjoy being right on the odd occasion I am

I like the way Hurricane carries himself, seems a pretty chill guy and it would rile up the more annoying balance whiners more than any other player winning probably, which I’d also enjoy.

It’s a pretty nice feeling really, nobody I’d actively root against, nobody I’m super invested in so can just chill and sit back and enjoy good games (they better bloody be good games)


It's the last year for soO and probably herO as well!


That can't be right, both of them are younger than Classic. Unless they're retiring voluntarily?


I am quite sure soO said multiple times during his interviews that 2019 was his last year and iirc he mentioned that as additional source of motivation.

As for herO, it was written he was considering retirement last year but then decided to play for one more year.

I'd be happy to be wrong or they might decide otherwise after all; however, Classic is one year older than both and he is struggling to postpone enlistment, his BlizzCon participation is not confirmed yet and he was denied the possibility of going to Katowice. For the korean progamers born in 1992 this year is most likely the last "safe" one.

Look on the bright side, considering all the exits from Blizzard recently, maybe WCS will be disbanded before then.

I'm struggling really hard not to make a comment on inno vs stats series, but I guess i'll just save all of my sarcasm for finals review thread. I'm just dying to see what kind of excuses (aka reasonable protoss nerf argumentation) will pop up after Inno will take it all. God that will be epic. I guess i'll even take a day off specifically for that.
Less is more.

i dont understand why people are saying dark is basically guaranteed a finals spot

hero and parting both excel in the current pvz meta which focuses on timings, and both have the potential to display the pinnacle of unit control which goes hand in hand with the timings. they are both extremely dangerous opponents for dark imo, as is hurricane, who has recently been making his GSL runs on the back of his PvZ against guys like Rogue and Solar

It's pretty simple, herO and PartinG have not been on the level of Dark for years. We're not talking about 2017 herO or 2015 PartinG. There's a limit to how far a favourable meta alone can take someone.

That being said I can see Dark losing to herO. PartinG wouldn't beat either of them.



not simple at all.

parting and hero not being on dark's level for years has nothing to do with their current form and potential.

that, combined with the meta, means, to me, that dark is far from guaranteed a finals spot.

the idea that dark is basically guaranteed a finals spot because he faces hero/parting/trap just sounds ridiculous
