Dark got eliminated from code S by Classic/Stats and Solar got eliminated by herO. Some of this might be due to top Z slumping, but PvZ looks like it's in really health shape atm. Build variety is okay too, at least after the first few oracles. Tbf Solar also lost to ryung and herO said he (solar) is taking a chill approach rn so not too unexpected. I agree tho that PvZ has looked alot better recently. | ||

I don't have XiaoSe's wechat anymore he is "toxic milk", I am scared to have him on my contact list, hahaha. Honestly, just a meme about him having the power to jinx any random things. Now jokes aside, I don't think scboy forum has big enough influence to have the government put down some rules to regulate it, but it's possible the messaging service provider they use has no ability to send that stuff to foreign numbers. BTW I just noticed that now scboy.cc allows registering with foreign phone numbers (it was not an option before). But when I clicked "发送验证码", it said "发送成功" but I didn't receive anything. I tried using format +1***, 1***, 001***, but the results are all the same, "发送成功" but nothing was received. Is there any successful example that a foreign phone number receives the verification message? What's the format? Or is it not functioning for foreign numbers? | ||

This probably is the first one in a hot minute. Not that surprised no zergs made it through the korean quals given that dark didn't even play. Super surprised that even though neither serral or clem played, reynor still didn't make it through the euro-american quals | ||

There's only been a handful of big tournaments with 8 players, the last one with only two races (P and Z) represented was also in China funnily enough in 2014: World E-sport Championships 2014 And then there's only been two more I think at the beginning of WoL featuring no Zergs: IEM Season V - American Championships IEM Season V - European Championships/Finals | ||

But there could be a world where this becomes somewhat of the new normal, considering that Reynor and Solar are both not doing great right now and Dark is on the verge of military service. There is Serral and then there is a big pile of nothing until Shin or Elazer come along. | ||

He used to buy bunch of keyboard from XiaoSe(Co-owner of Scboy) and resell them in Poland I heard, haha. It's his perfect chance to restock some for free, LOL. | ||

Also where lambo in your list if you are listing elazer and shin (lambo didnt try here so yea another good eu zerg that is missing). Also rogue is returning to fill the hole dark is leaving behind | ||
