Don't think we've forgiven you for 1812, but your stream is appreciated!

I'd like to see at least one Leebo in every match you stream so I can learn to git gud. Do you have the power to make that happen?

Morning all! The stream is live but play hasn't started yet :)

Are there any news yet?

First round of games has just finished up. Hope to see standings soon!

Any updates on the event?

2nd place curse

Was it the triple jumps with mindlink, r4 aggro, and one with proton/boba combo? I think I saw that list on the live stream day 1 playing against a Nym, Biggs, Low list.

No, it was Faan who made Top 16 at Worlds and beat Paul in the cut in 2016. He had all R4 and Intel with Plasmas and EM on two (Marcel from Gold Squadrons list). However, he made a slight tweak. He put Cikatro on one, instead of Intel, and had a 1 point Illicit that he could exchange. So he can use Black Market slicer tool if he goes up against someone who's gonna have stress, Burnout Slam so he can get it out of dodge, Inertial Dampeners to keep it in place at a crucial time, or Rigged Cargo to dump it on someone who really needed actions.

That's some nice use of Cikatro there! I'm looking forwards to watching the final, it sounds like it was a strong positional game from what I've heard.
