Serral is the king. Too bad he missed some serious earning from Valencia but a good vacation is worth a lot for him I'm sure. It was very nice to see Serral play through the lower bracket. The Neeb match was a nail-biter. Shame the final did not end up being that memorable, but it was so late already that I was glad it did not go on for too long. Congrats once more Serral, 4X offline HSC champ, another World-first to his name!


Again, impressive feat. However HSC has nothing on ESL/DH/GSL. Winning 4x of these is like winning 4x of EPT weekly cups. Again, good on Serral but he needs to step up and at least attempt GSL to be taken seriously. Scarlett, Idra, Huk, Stephano, Neeb, etc tried for GSL and while they lost, at least they tried so we can call them legit players.


You have no clue what you are talking about. I strongly suggest going back to previous HSC editions (without EPT points) and check the lineups where multiple previous GSL champions fell. Rogue when he attended didnt make it out of groups. The level is crazy and the competition is serious. Just because we provide a fun experience doesn't mean the level isnt there.

Rogue didn't make it out because he didn't care. He was drunk af bro. HSC is for having a good time with your bros. Only people take it seriously win, but its by no means considered a prestigious tournament. DH is way more prestigious and legit.

Edit. I wanted to give you a few wins though. I'd say every HSC before 2018 was actually legit. After that it turned into a massive frat party where only the sober tryhards won.

Oh I'm sure you know better than NarutO about Rogues condition lmfao. I greatly doubt he was too drunk to play in the group stages. After that maybe.

More importantly it's been almost 4 years since that HSC and Noregret still hasn't eaten the shoe.

You heard it here first people: Pengwin who failed multiple times in GSL qualifiers is a more legit player than two-times world champion Serral. Because a regional league in which 2/3 of the players couldn't reach top 6 in EU is much more important than anything else and the only indicator if you are decent.

What a troll... That guy's having no clue of the extremly hard competition at HSC. Probably more than on most events. Because at HSC you have the audition, the fans VERY nearby. No serious sportsman (or woman) would take it lightly to lose there. Not to speak of the prize pool of $ 42.000 and that much EPT points at stake.

I honestly can't tell if you're trolling or not considering the clan logo you have. HSC is all about getting drunk with your bros. Thats all. Again, ever since 2018 its gone downhill from a respectable top tier tournament to something of a college house party.

I'm curious why you made the distinction that it only started being about 'getting drunk with your bros' after 2018. What changed after that, I think the tournament remained pretty much the same?

The destinction is that the first HSC in 2018 was the last one won by someone else than this unknown finnish guy that we can't take seriously because he never played GSL...

Come on! Serral won the last Katowice! No Fucking one at this site bothered to write anything about that, right?.

Now it is ofc right to redeem everyone with The Umphteenth Homestory win blaah blah?

Last man standing for The GOAT!

I was looking around with the same problem and couldn't find anything either. So I finally asked on Twitter and got an answer .
