It would be pretty funny if Zest got to the final only to be drafted just before he can play in it. | ||

I think Zest wouldnt participate in the GSL if he knew he couldnt fiinish it, I believe the military people give players enough time to prepare for it in advance. And didnt Classic join the army at the end of 2019, like after Blizzcon? Zest might have the same treatment. | ||

The noun is ward. Stasis is describing the ward. It's a stasis ward. Removing the noun from the object makes it hard to make it work as a noun. Stasises is the way I would write it, just like how octopus is octopuses in plural form. Side track: I know the Latin way to say octopus in plural is octopi, but octopus isn't stemming from Latin. There is no point in using Latin grammar on a non Latin word when you are speaking English. There's no point in using Latin grammar when speaking English, period. Colossus in plural is colossuses, according to English grammar. | ||

Colossus in plural is colossuses, according to English grammar. "Stasis ward" is the full term. "Stasis", in this context, is a colloquial shorthand, which grammatically is used as a noun. Stasis is also used in English as a noun, independently, and its plural is "stases". Octopus comes from Greek, apparently getting into English via Latin, and has several accepted plural terms in English, including octopi, octopodes, and octopuses. Colossus, similarly has two accepted plurals in English. The term for how these words change depending on modifiers is inflection, not grammar. | ||
