>That suspiciously long pause during pavel's mulliagn
>Which lead to him getting the worst hand imaginable, cue loss
I am no conspiracy theorist but this smells rigged as hell.
Well, 2 packs from Pavel. GL next time. That last game was so 1-sided.....
Would love to see purple vs. orange in the finals - the ultimate battle of non-primary color dominance :)
(And I voted for Purple. Plays fantastic and seems a pretty swell guy :) )
I VOTED FOR PURPLE EleGiggle
I can't believe it. I actually managed to vote for someone who won. WIll wonders never cease?
The secret is you don't listen to Hearthpwn.
Pavel you fucking idiot.
Why do you people keep voting for him?
I didn't vote for him but he has the best tournament win rate and has been performing very well. Why wouldn't people vote for him?
People should bot get money from things like this
I'm happy I voted for Purple atm :).
Ok, from now on i will always let my girlfriend vote. First she picked the Canadian team at TESPA, now Purple. And totally randomly, not because she follows hearthstone. Whenever i voted i always got 1 pack
Holy Crap EU has got to be happy. World Championship in Holland.
Packrple BlessRng
Orange hugging Purple = United Colors of Benett... ehr, Hearthstone :P
Wtf lol, that Tom60229 who I don't know and chose completely randomly actually has the best W/L ratio of all players.
Thank you Tom60229 and thank you Python random() function!
EDIT: Well, this couldn't go on forever I guess.
Voted for Purple, lets see how far he goes
I chose Purple too, isn't he out now?
So... If the player of your choice is already out, are they going to give to you just one or at least two packs? -sigh-
You disapointed me Trunks... :(
