They were destined to stealing wins from eachother in PvP. Protoss runnerups in 3 of the 4 groups is a sign the race/players are still competeteive, which is very good for the variety of games. | ||

Even if 100% of the participants were protoss, someone would make a post saying everyone eliminated in groups was protoss. | ||

He almost looks good enough to win the tournament, though if Serral is slumping super hard Showtime 2-0 Serral doesn't tell us much about his ability to beat Reynor. I dare not hope. | ||

Protoss runnerups in 3 of the 4 groups is a sign the race/players are still competeteive, which is very good for the variety of games. well, thats one way to look at it. But for example, having a group of 8 players where 4 is tosses it kind of sticks out that all 4 are eliminated, rather than to reason like you do. There were more than 50 percent toss playing in the tourney and almost 90 % was eliminated... Imagine if there were 18 terrans in the tourney and only 4 went to the playoffs (and where 2 of those 4 were moving on because of two groups with 5 terrans). I think TL.net would break because of the endless salt. | ||
