Well, because he avoided saying how Blizzard could fix most of this crap easily be paying more attention to the game and the community.

Damn look how good I am. Making maps & getting on blizzards website. I'm such a boss.

Talking to Disp about the map pools and he had this to say:

"Disp: you're obviously the most popular sc2 player on RR and IRL so it makes sense why they listen to you."

Pretty much agree with him.

Disp is drinking man... careful believing him

You know shit's bad when ESV.tv started doing LoL tournaments instead

I think ESV will be back closer to HotS, I know they are still creating new maps just since nobody is picking anything up they haven't been giving a shit recently.

It was the only tournament to have new maps, which made it really interesting to watch, it was also starting at midnight my time, so it was something to fall asleep to.

Just played a Zerg who was top 50 GM last season of HOTS and lost, pretty handedly, but not as badly as I would think. Still need to work on a few kinks in my play. For some reason I stop SCV production at like 55 every game and I need to realistically make 10-12 more. I also fucked my build up so my upgrades were way late. 2-1 bio/0-0 tanks vs 3-3 Ultra/Ling isn't a good thing -_-

Heart says Grubby will get into code S, head says Tenks will be a decent player before that happens. We shall see in 12 hours.

I feel like he may make the wild card. If I had to pick the auto placers I'd say First and Symbol. But even making the wild card I feel is a long shot.

Three korean zergs make toss life hard. With the long break over the Christmas, it makes these groups pain to predict, because if somebody was grinding 50 games a day, they can suddenly own their their group out of nowhere. Grubby has been practicing at the FXO house for like a week or so, so maybe he can also surprise and he is one of the few people who somehow always step their game up when it matters, not like others who usually start throwing games away when they get ahead in important matches vs koreans.

Yeah, I'm hoping Grubby gets into Code S. The guy is just so much fun to watch and his passion for the game makes it even more enjoyable. I don't think he stands that great of a chance unless he brings 110%. DRG, Symbol, Bbyong & First all could easily compete for top 3. Losira use to be so great but I haven't seen him play, or heard about him at all for that matter since his loss to NesTea, but I suppose you can never really count him out either. I hope Grubby doesn't bottom out of the group at the very least.

If I had to bet I'd say: 1st - Symbol, 2nd - Bbyong, 3rd - First, with DRG, Losira & Grubby not qualifying.

Grubby in GSL at same time as EGTL play proleague, and I dont have good enough internet to run two streams at the same time

Looks like Grubby got raped

Yeah, that was a bit painful to watch. At least EGTL won.

KR meta is so different than EU/NA they're almost playing a different game. Anyone who thought Grubby would advance to Code S was just blind fanboying.

Stupid me thinking a Zerg wouldn't advance.

Wow, looks like I was almost spot on with my predictions for once, as in, I said this is a crapshoot and people with no results can own the group

Tomorrow Hero should advance, with the second spot probably going to Byul, but both Bomber and Genius have the experience to get through and pvp can get weird. sOs and Byun would really surprise me, but Losira did the same today, so ...

Eh? I'd argue the three that advanced are probably the three most decorated players.

Tomorrows group is harder to predict than this one. From what I understand Bomber is a practice monster so I think the break would benefit him. Byul is Zerg so he'll at least get wild card. So I'm going with: Bomber, Byul, Genius.

Yep Genius. Never count that dude out.

What the hell is wrong with me. If there are at least 3 zergs in the group might as well just assume they will all advance, I mean, between being imbalanced and having a map pool that favors zerg why not root for them always.

Group D: Byul, Bomber & HerO. (I could see sOs in place of Bomber though but I'm a huge bomber fanboy, so gotta root for him)

Well, IPL confirming they are changing their map pool up. Thank me later boys! I wonder if we'll see something from MLG soon since they just made their Winter Championship announcement.

ps. Post in that thread and keep it bumped my brothers!
