Thanks a lot man.
did pavel die?
Europe is a super competitive region when it comes to HCT points and you always need a ridiculous amount of points to qualify compared to other regions. This time one needed 32p to qualify, Pavel got 23p. He's not the only big name that didn't make the cut either, for example Hoej (last year's Spring champion) was left out by one point.
I'm glad to see a player who brought Hunter in the top 10. I feel like I'm the only Spell Hunter climbing at rank 4-3 :(
Hunter & Shaman.......ouch
Shaman is back they said...Shaman will dominate they said...Shaman is...poor Shaman ☹
Swidz is going 5-1 using a Togwaggle Druid and a Fatigue Warrior wtf meme decks ftw
just because you have been programmed to call everything someone tells you isn't viable doesn't mean its a meme deck
Looks like you dropped your salt here bro, let me pick it up for you *picks up salt*
A+ effort for not being funny however if you were trying to be funny you failed miserably just stick to using ctrl C ctrl V its easier that way
Hm.. warlock is the most popular, and every single one is running Voidlord, Lackey and Gul'Dangerous. Surprises!
The guy who's playing Togwoggle druid is the real hero.
and he is 5-1 lol
honestly, it should be called mind blast priest
why so many dragon priests? did i miss something?
