I lost it for Denmark at the last match.. u_u
our match was simply amazing. Huge props to MathClass he performed really really well! I didn't think we can come back but oh well that freemod pick / your hdhr was really playing into our handsKRZY wrote:
Mixed feelings for this group stage.
Really proud of how the first-timers in the team performed, especially MathClass. K i R i K a R u has officially been promoted to the driver's seat of the bus that is the Korean team, and it's both impressive and happy to see a player who's been around forever finally making a name for himself as one of the best players in the world at the biggest stage of the game.
A bit disappointed with my own performance, for me it is fair to say I single-handedly threw away the Germany game with the miss on Bonfire and then the Terekakushi pick. Should have thought better. Overall I missed too many times on no-mod maps than I would have liked, but improvements will be made.
Had forgotten how fun this tournament is. Loving it at the moment.
i'll have to agree on this one. Italy could've easily won against other top seed teams with their performance and certainly didn't deserve 2nd lowest seed, same for Korea and high seed. This was one tough group man, other groups were nothing compared to this, everyone played SO well!lesslunatic wrote:
I just wonder how Korea was "high seed" and Germany "top seed" and our team was marked as "low seed" while Portugal was a "medium seed", I would like know what's the "top seed" on groups like Group C, Group B and Group E.. lmao
well, nothing else to say, I am happy of our performance, we almost won against Germany and played really well, I hope a better organization for the next owc.
Next year I would suggest to use some experienced players to make groups properly.
Also completely agree with everything that was said here, we got an awesome experience from these matches at least, and it was damn awesome and competitive to play against you guys.cptnXn wrote:

Can't wait to do that again next week!
I think this would be easily remedied by adding a bit of a delay on spectating matches. Add a 5-10 second delay to give time for the playback to buffer properly. It really is a shame to see a game that I think would have a lot of success as a spectator e-sport suffer from bad presentation.xasuma wrote:

This one thing is for me at least the most annoying one when watching owc. Hopefully for the next weekends coming, but if it's not possible that quickly, at least for next year. ty

What happened on Towa yori Towa ni that it was a 4v3?
Well played, nevertheless.
I don't find it particularly disturbing but w/e. If you watched (for example) some Counter-Strike matches you'd see that the players usually tease their opponents in the exact same way. Not like it's not retarded to do that, but it shouldn't be overreacted by banning the player from the entire tournament.Xhomas wrote:

But he had amnesty from that, and I believe doing what he did against NL wasn't enough to ban him entirely from the tournament, no matter how stupid it was.Loctav wrote:

Edit: more errors. USA beat UK 4-2, not 4-3. The Canadian and German flags are not showing in two instances.
Maybe, in order to fix these errors in the future, try double checking your work.

Not necessarily luck. The top team of a group gets to face the 2nd best team of another group which is common practice.manjumochi wrote:

South Korea again gets bad luck and will play finals to the end if they advance.
Based on the tournament schedule there should be a double elimmination otherwise two Final Weeks makes no sense.Rea Himuro wrote:
I want to know if the knockout stage is going to be double elimination as it has been promised or it will only be a normal knockout?
Because based on the graph that has been posted on wiki, it seems to be just a normal knockout stage which is the same as the previous OWCs.
an osu dev playing in owc is so weird, it's like if Chris Metzen played at a blizzcon 3's tournament on WoW, or IronStylus being in an LCS team on LoL.Tom94 wrote:

That being said time will tell whether this actually is the easier path. I sure don't know. :p
I really don't mind the delay tbh if it doesn't make me hyped up for the wrong reason or something like that (e.g. someone dropped combo, chance of going into tie breaker then finds out to be client lag orz)Ethelon wrote:

Zallius said that spectators wouldn't like the delay. My personal opinion is that something like 5-10 seconds isn't a big deal and you don't even need to delay the mp data with a delay that small. The trade-off would be worth it (assuming that a similarly small amount of time would actually fix the issue).
