they just reran the end of OG/NiP game 1 on the main TI stream and holy poo poo it's just as joyous now as it was then

Game 2 is also worth a watch. OG takes 4-5 deaths within literally 10 seconds of the start, gets like 1? maybe 2? bounty runes from the first set and then maybe picks up 1 or 2 for the rest of the entire loving game, is down more towers and roughly as much gold as in the first game, and then wisp hits 15 and NIP gets obliterated. The wisp/windrunner moment was bonkers and silly, but the second game was just flat-out instant win switch.

It happened in the first, too, but I think the 2nd game was even more black and white

They put all 5 of those in the enemy fountain at the end of game one

Just BM on a level never seen before, it's amazing

Game 2 best moment was treant (Jerax?) hiding in top lane trees while Newbee set up a gank and he sprayed a loser tag into the lane right in front of them as they were looking for him. Think he even dodged out of the immediate response

This man just won a video game an won millions of dollars and he's so happy he's crying from the stress relief.....no that doesn't make sense that's not how emotions work. Clearly drugs.

it's not just that, it's having to hold yourself at peak mental intensity for 3+ hours and having to be completely 100% on-point with everything you do. There's a crazy mental/physical drop once you let yourself go; you're super fragile and basically just floating in outer space emotionally and mentally. If you've ever experienced it I think it's pretty obvious when you see someone else going through it.

The post-game “interview” that OG just ignored for 10 minutes was hilarious. Like, all of the post-game was hilarious, basically OG celebrating for 15 minutes while everyone left.

Is there some separate awards/closing ceremony that I missed? That wasn’t the whole thing, was it? Like, the quarterly KSL Starcraft II tournaments have better ceremonies than that. Not trying to be a salty fanboy, it was just so... weird

It’s important to be able to point to a policy and say, “this is why you’re banned from our events.” I think it’s equally as important to have visible policies in place as a clear signal that certain behaviors will not be tolerated, because relying on “common sense” to police public behavior does poo poo all.
