Let’s be real, this is the best chance for a terran to win a big tournament consider the current meta / map pool is heavily terran favoured Grats to showtime though, he finally won a big one (his biggest prize pool ever? 15K) | ||

So we're all waiting five weeks at this point? Since SC2 is in the last week of EWC I believe, yes. Until then we only get WTL, since I can't imagine any qualified player would even play a bigger tournament before EWC. Interestingly, that could lead to a last-minute pick-up of players (or even BASILISK entirely), should teams need those last bit of points from SC2 | ||

Those two things occuring has almost nothing to do with balance. | ||

MaxPax once again forfeit. Coffee barely sneaking through because Oliveira managed to defy the expectations in his latest run I don’t see in what world Terran is favored in this map pool / meta, let alone heavily All three races seem very potent, and sure maps play their part but there are solutions | ||

The zerg race is just built to win this kind of tournament as opposed to dominating in practice or on the ladder. | ||

The zerg race is just built to win this kind of tournament as opposed to dominating in practice or on the ladder. I think stuff is relatively balanced (i do think in the Ghost mech Stage Terran is favored tho). But i do think zergs are complaining a Bit much for their recent Performances. I get that the matchups might not feel good in the way they Play Out but that is imo a different topic than the Overall Balance. | ||

And then there is a Three-Way-Tie, you need to straighten that out, which fails and gets you in another tie...it's just messy tbh, especially if you want to finish your tournament on a hyped-up high point. Or one player dominates everyone and then loses the finals, also not particularly rewarding. I think the system is interesting as it is and a World Cup like this definetly deserves atleast a Final Four bracket | ||
