Sad for Solar. He's such a strong player but never quite gets the results it seems like he should. Probably could have advanced in any other group--even having ByuN or ShoWTimE perform better might have done it.

Sad for Byun. Felt like a lot of uncharistic mistakes from him. Maybe because he also played the days before? Also sad for Showtime not winning a series

He would have also gotten first if Byun could have taken a game off of TY.

TY too strong in TvT.

Good games today, really enjoyed the coverage. Katowice, even if it's online event this year, is still super hype!

Tomorrow looks to be good, too!

Really interesting day, am i right or is the nuke at the end really the thing that keeps rogue from advancing? That makes it even more dramatic. But i think Maru, TY and Clem are the best terrans left, so it is fine that they adavnced.

What an outstanding slate of games today. Was rooting for Clem to take the top of his group after a strong showing, but hope he takes it even farther!

Fun day to listen / watch. I think everyone knew how close the results were going to be, and that didn't disappoint.
You're getting cynical and that won't do I'd throw the rose tint back on the exploded view

? And ByuN lost to Clem, and Clem lost to Maru, and Maru lost to TY. Each one of them lost to each other. For me, it's either TY or Maru. Both of them seem just that bit better than the rest, which is why they are 1st and 2nd.

Imagine going out in a 6 man group just because you lost to fucking Maru and TY.
Zest, sOs, PartinG, Dark, and Maru are the real champs. ROOT_herO is overrated. Snute, Serral, and Scarlett are the foreigner GOATs

His point was that Maru lost to TY And lost a game to ByuN so the best tvt plays of group A can't be Maru.
so Clem and TY remains, and well, clem stomped TY so if we had to pick only one, that would be clem

Ofc it does not mean anything I'm glad those 3 came out of group A

I watched the vod of the group A games on the ESL twitch channel and I loved the soundtrack. Can anyone tell me if there is a way to know the song names? I especially would like to know the name of the song which starts at 06:04:45 on this twitch vod https://www.twitch.tv/videos/924117600
I'm sorry I know it has nothing to do with the games but I have no idea where to ask. I tried to find but to no avail. The IEM playlist I found on spotify does not include this song.
