Protoss is trash vs. Terran and even Ragnarok is a difficult match for Stats. I don't think he has done anything noteworthy yet, and even coming back to a live setting is something that you need to get used to. But he was always the guy to punch above his weight. I'm specifically talking how his ladder mmr would always be super low, but still he would win tournaments.
Let's hope!
SC2 Archon needs "Terrible, terrible damage" as one of it's quotes.

Oddly enough, I can see Stats upsetting the big guys in his group but losing to Bunny and SHIN (don't ask me why, it's pure intuition)

I foresee the most contentious topic in LRs being the ‘it’s Rag’ versus ‘its SHIN’ divide.

At least it's not SpeciaL's levels of " I change gaming names like I change sockets " !

Makes the Vanya/Rattata/Wayne changes absolutely paling in comparison :p
I'm just a cynical video game enjoyer who is probably unfazed by many business dealings many would find utterly distasteful, while not strictly illegal by the law as seen in a general sense in the world.

Vanya was a pretty boss nickname. Rattata was definitely among the worst we've ever had. Wayne is definitely 4/10

Vanya was a pretty boss nickname. Rattata was definitely among the worst we've ever had. Wayne is definitely 4/10

Rattata is just lame, I’m giving Wayne a solid 8, bordering a 9/10

It would be a 4 if he was called Wayne, or even from a culture where that’s a name, but it’s just so bizarre as a choice of nick.

In the same way the thought of someone naming their dog something like Nigel amuses me. It’s the kind of name that only 50 year old estate agents who enjoy collecting stamps have, it fits that guy but resolutely is not something a dog should be called.

In other nickname related chat, for me Major was probably his best nick, and I preferred TIME to Oliveira, but at least in terms of inspiring him to new heights that.

Zoun absolutely wins the award for most confusing nickname, although it was for me a fucking cool one. Nobody seemed able to decide on how it was actually pronounced, indeed I may be misremembering but apparently the correct manner is something Koreans actually struggle to say? Perhaps someone can fill me in on that!

Rag - SHIN is definitely the worst change of handle we’ve seen, going from a solid A, maybe S tier nick to one of the worst. I mean I imagine it means something in Korean or another language in mitigation, but to an English native it is absolutely ridiculous

Actually I thought he picked Wayne to be like Bruce Wayne - but if he really just picked it as a cool name I agree it then becomes pretty boss.

Time is definitely better than Oliveira.

I agree Zoun was one of the best.

Stats isn’t getting through he plays Protoss.

Hoping the world champ can do the double.
