But Grubby loosing all his matches - I dont think anyone saw that coming. Same applies for Sky.
It's not a bad thing to have new names in the brackets, but this can give the players things to think over after the event.
Anyways, the world hasn't end and it is NOT time noone to retire =]
And if you see, there are 4 ORCS, 2 UDs, 1 ELF and 1 HU. I haven't done statistics on the previous tournaments, but probably the situation would be the same.
And this clearly showes the dominance of one race (as it was before - several elfs, some HU, and barely some orcs and UDs)
Looking forward to watch the replays.
+ He is on fire - literally owned Moon
I really would like to see Happy win this, but to be honest it will be harder for him to use his magic with BO3.
Where is the Humba savior ? :(
and as for human... human was always the weakest race, needing 2 mines+199829832 towers vs 1 mine to play on the same level as the other races... last patch threw a small nerf on the towers and the 3 hero staff abuse is gone so human is more screwed than we where before... screwed+screwed x2
thank you blizzard.
Instead of totally dominating elf , we now have totally dominating orc.Blizzard should have never released 1.22.1.21 was way better than this
Riflecaster vs UD for example was cookiecutter then, give back those times... ah... Heman vs Madfrog...
all we see now is orc vs orc in the playoffs of every tournament/league
