sry, did a mistake in my post, of course its classic who will face the 1st place of gr. D and not Reynor
Reynor either plays Neeb/Trap (if Neeb/Trap get 2nd in group D) or Maru (if Rogue or Elazer get 2nd in gr. D)

I wanted to see new matchups(Reynor against the korean Zerg) but it seems like we'll add new chapters to existing sagas. | ||

This is super impressive in comparison to the 0-X it might have been 4 or 5 years ago. 4-5 years ago there would be 1 to 4 foreigners as they wouldn't have reserved space (well technically they would, but Polt and others would be here instead :D ) | ||

I knew I had seen it somewhere. But yeah it is pretty weird of Blizzard to not publish this rules in advance. When it comes to rules transparency is key to avoid confusion and conspiracy theories. | ||

Maybe it's just my memory playing tricks on me, or some recency bias. If I didn't miss anything, considering Premier tournaments only, it should be 37-23 in favor of koreans, in total. In WCS America it happened the most, and there was like a 9-0 streak in early 2014. Not really that bad for foreigners, after all. | ||

That beein said, he looked kinda lost vs Zerg. The first two games against Reynor were great, maybe the best we've seen so far but for some reason I didn't feel like Gabe had a plan after minute ~4 or 5. In both games he just held on as long as he could instead of actually doing sth. to improve his position. | ||
