The stage was a fucking spectacle. Considering the amount of extra money they (and we) have put into the WCS finals this year, to give us a downgrade just feels bad edit: ok as I've just learned from reddit, we still get the arena stage for the grand finals. I guess that's when like 80% of the viewers come in anyway haha | ||

Well you will get it with two places instead of one ( because of the stream in the arena ). But I'm a little worried for the starcraft hall of honor | ||

Its disappointing to spend the year waiting to see it again, just for blizz to give it to overwatch If I recall correctly, the 2013 Blizzcon was in Hall A? Or maybe it was Hall B? Anyway it was still hype af. That was the first SC2 tournament I watched live and it was amazing. Shame JD lost in the finals. I love the Arena though. But OW is their biggest game right now, and we have to adjust unfortunately. At least the final will be there. EDIT: I don't see us getting the arena for the finals, it still says Hall A ancthe schedule. Is that info legit? | ||

But I'm a little worried for the starcraft hall of honor Don't assume shit, I never even said I wanted the arena for the entire event..... I said it's an iconic part of sc2 as an esport. Which it is. Am I not allowed to be disappointed that one of my favorite events of the year is getting downgraded, in favour of an esport that isn't even good? | ||

C should be Dark and Elazer. HerO might be able to upset and sang a spot, but it's doubtful. Kal I see taking a couple games but not winning any sets. All in all, the group should be a nail bitter compared to A and D. | ||

The Zergs are in a werid spot though. ZvZ is easy grounds for an upset. I don't feel strongly about Nerchios Zvz to get behind him, let alone the fact he would have to beat soO. Between soO and Rouge, I honestly believe it will just come down to who can out miname each other during their matches. C should be Dark and Elazer. HerO might be able to upset and sang a spot, but it's doubtful. Kal I see taking a couple games but not winning any sets. All in all, the group should be a nail bitter compared to A and D. It's a giant upset if Elazer beats herO. herO is in massive form at the moment, just won Masters Coliseum over Rogue, INnoVation, soO and Dear. Beat all of them convincingly too. Just off a Super Tournament finals as well. | ||

Obviously with the consideration that it's an online tournament, but yeah, herO's PvZ has looked quite good recently--especially since he just beat Dark in the Super Tournament. | ||
