so from what i hear the first stage of this tournament is in Seoul, then the rest at Blizzcon in California, right?

so they're flying a bunch of people to South Korea and then from there to California for what reason exactly? seems like a huge waste of money, a lot of jetlag for the players involved and, most importantly, quite a bit of unecessary damage to the world's climate.

If you don't let Thunberg know then it's fine. Also, with 8 Korean players plus those who are already in Korea, you fly less than eight people for the ro16. Then you fly 8 ppl to Anaheim for ro8. That's less than flying all of 16 ppl to California.

Yeah, TIME is a great player but if the standings stay how they are right now there is no way he is getting out of that group.

Here is another say: As most world players have little chance to go to RO8,if TIME will be out anyway, it is happy to be together with a top player(maru I guess.XD)

Not a biggest fan of TIME, but in contemporary overall circumstances it wouldn't be necessarily the worst thing for the SC2 if TIME would surpass every expectations and win The Blizzcon.

20 million new Chinese players would emerge onto a ladders soon after trying to follow their great idol.

For we chinese fans, we are so happy to see that, here are some interesting comments from Chinese sc2 forum:
1. Time seems to entered the finals in advance---3 times
2. Whoever will be out with Time in this group, we will say:'See--Time is as strong as Serral/Maru/Stats(LOL)
3. Do you know in Chinese sc2 forum, they made funny pictures for groupB

First time at the Global Finals and possibly placed in the most deadly group of death in WCS history, and people wonder why sc2 doesn't attract new players.


I just checked liquipedia. Holy cow you weren't kidding. That's a one for the ages. Crazy to think that one of Maru, Stats, and Serral will be out in group stages.

Hah! I like this. Well played.
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)
