LOL TERRAN

so watching this, my TvT is abysmal

Be nice if Artist gets it after Reign fell apart but I really doubt he will...

No idea who to pick as the winner, there is no ONE player there who is so, so, so far ahead in TvT, many are all equally competent while all the non-Terrans are also good.

Tremendous terrifying Terrans, Batman!

Also, I'm very surprised by Empire's choice. And Startale. Sending a Code A player when you have multiple Code S players.

Love the idea. IPL just keeps making content. Shame it's so Terran stacked, but that's just the way it worked out as per the team's choices.

Hmm, MarineKing and Bomber are already qualified for IPL4 so I guess they want to give other players on their team a chance. Puma's already qualified too, but he's participating in this so I don't know actually.

Korean Terrans though...
