I feel like thorzain has been practicing alot. If socke has been practicing hots he'll stand a chance maybe. If not he's going to get crushed by some widowmine mech

or is he one of those barcode tosses high up there in gm?

Does thorzain ever play mech in HoTS against Toss? I rarely watch his stream, but I hope he goes mech atleast once. ;_;

I don't think he's gonna fool around playing mech TvP in such an important match.

Thorzain is playing HoTS exclusively at this point right? I assume because he's never in the proleague roster and streams a lot of HoTS and has a ton of games played

I would assume so, he's not in this week's proleague roster for EG-TL, and hasn't been for quite awhile. With his abundant HOTS streams, I think he's basically just switched over to HOTS completely.
