|

|
so, we still don't know who will play this evening!? =O
|
I didn't see any announcement, but the "Upcoming Events" column on TL says: ShoWTimE vs Dayshi GoOdy vs TBD
TBD is the loser of the first match
|
Should be on easy walk in the park for Showtime. But who knows, GoOdy did tend to suprise in some german tourneys some years back...

He still played ESL Meisterschaft as protoss last week, so it seems to be a recent decision.

Huh okay, the LP page needs an update then. Good old GoOdy... :D

Naruto talked openly about how Goodys bio is looking pretty good. (he won a map with that against a german protoss in ESLMeisterschaft). The next maps Goody plays mech and gets crushed. "Why you play mech, goody, your bio looks really good" "Yeah...I just like mech"
I guess, he couldnt go away from his all time love mech.

ShoWTimE 2-0 Dayshi, GoOdy 1-2 Dayshi and ShoWTimE 1-0 GoOdy I think. Dayshi was supposed to play ShoWTimE in the last series instead of GoOdy, as he won the second series, but he conceded/didn't want to play anymore. And they didn't play out the Bo3 between ShoWTimE and GoOdy in the end it seems, for whatever reason.
ShoWTimE did qualify for the event at gamescom.

They did not play the full Bo3 in the end, because ShoWTimE was supposed to play against Dayshi, which would've been a rematch of the first match. Since he won 2-0, Dayshi would've needed a 2-0 to equalize the score and go for a decider map. GoOdy just took his place, so these rules were applied I assume.

Did MaSa & Harstem swap groups? Or will someone else replace Harstem in group D?
|
Is there only the German stream? No English?
|
Damn Heromarine is looking so strong now that he is fulltime. Beating Showtime again, not bad.
