Thx for the preview, although it seems to be written in a hurry, especially Group B: 2nd paragraph [i]normal[i], last sentence in 3rd paragraph, Zest defeating Neeb and so on apperently twice...

I'm just nitpicking here

Super excited since seeing soO playing really well in the offline qualifier!

Haha, going even one step further than peer-review, I like it!

I'm just surprised by the number of games Zest has played during the offseason. Those aren't quite Bly numbers, but it still feels like he's played more than basically any other Korean including Solar and Cure.

It's going to be a lot of zvz later on for sure, so we should enjoy other matchups now while we still can

This needs a Z-axis that measures something, but I'm not sure what

I added a Z axis measuring the number of fans, you just can't see it cause it make a perfect L form and as such is hidden by the skill and time axis.

Laughed out loud when I read that Nakajin post in the article and when I saw the Dear skill graph for the first time.
Stopped watching ESL content in 2022 when the company was acquired by Savvy Gaming Group. Also object to sponsorships by the U.S. Air Force. Thanks for the lively discussions about sportswashing. StarCraft II is not for me anymore.

If his StarCraft II skills have improved at the same rate as his trolling skills, then he's going to one-up Serral's 2018 dynasty.

Hmm... not so sure about that.

It's the big test for Reynor, I think he'll qualify but I doubt he can place higher than Serral

And finally, we have the perennially very-good-player and Katowice 2018 champion Rogue. I don't have any particular observations to make about him, so I guess he'll win the entire tournament.

Not bad Wax.
