Well if u look back on first 3 games of the series, u will see that Amnesiac had a lot RNG to his favour. A lot of that leading to him getting 3-0 lead at the beggining.

Good Job Pavel! We believe in you!

Go ahead! Unbelievable comeback v2.0.

P.s. To be honest - again many important things are decided by RNG. In the beginning lucky for US guy, at the end for Russian)

100% agreed. After Amnesiac's 3'rd person self intro, only one thought crossed my mind: "someone please knock him out of the tournament".

It seemed that yes Pavel got really nice rng luck at the end, especially with babbling book. However more than anything it seemed that Amnesiac's strategy revolved around rush/aggro/smorc best class in the meta vs control decks. He choose Shaman, Zoo, Hunter, Druid and Mage as his lineup. He prepped his lineup to take on Shaman but ended up banning it and getting his Shaman banned too. So after easy Hunter, Zoo and Mage wins, his 100% win rate deck Shaman was not available. Pavel's comeback relied on Amnesiac not knowing how to pilot a deck which isn't a smorc/aggro/hit face fast and hard. As did all of his other decks. I believe Amnesiac's winning streak came to a halt when he couldn't use a deck that required a lot of hard decisions. Unlike his auto-pilot other fast decks. Also of note he put in cards into his Druid build like Geddon to deal with Shaman yet he ended up banning it. Goodbye Amnesiac, go to school learn some manners, stop talking about being Captain America and what not. L2P.

All it did was prove what the top players have been saying. The game is just a giant coin flip now to win even at the top level of play. IF blizzard wants the game to continue being taken seriously they need to remove this garbage from the game. Both of these guys need amazing luck to win many of their games and that's just not good for the game. Also lets be honest that a bunch of these guys werte pretty smug and confident about their play and decks.

So many streamers have been trying out that Warrior deck HotMeowth is bringing, it's such a fun deck to play.

You can only see the tournaments on twitch, not the annoucements and the panels of the diffret games. The expansion stream can't you see legally, sure any trailer will be put up on this site after a while and screenshots as well, but you won't be there and see the action as it unfolds.

This is not true, all main stage announcements will be stream for free. Like every year.
