Videos are up on YouTube including the interview with Vince. In Round 1 we had some issues FPS wise that could be fixed for Round 2. Round 3 is still missing but will be uploaded in the next two days or so.
System Open Hanover Livestream
anyone know what was in the top 16 that didnt make it to the top 8? I cant find it anywhere.
On the streams, a Guri/Thweek/Fenn lost to Nymranda and the other stream had a Lothal/Fenn mirror so one of the Lothal/Fenns lost. 4 other lists that lost top 16 were Imperial and 2 were Scum, haven't seen an actual list breakdown anywhere.
According to the FirstEarth stream, the top 8 lists were:
Miranda/Low/Fenn
Miranda/Crimson Specialist/Grey Squadron
Norra/Low/Fenn
Nymranda
Nymranda
Lothal/Fenn
Lothal/Fenn
Dash/Nym
So diverse. The meta really is wide open!

The Lothal/Fenns had a mirror round of 16 and round of 8, I would feel bad except they brought the list themselves haha. I wish consecutive ghost/fenn games on nobody.

I do. :-p
But Europe could have just as easily had those mirrors in top 4 and/or finals too. The fact those mirrors happened earlier just masks that they eliminated themselves...
Yeah, bracket worked out to where those 3 Ghost/Fenn lists were all on the same side of the bracket and knocked each other out right away, so only one survived to make it to the finals. The top 8 from this tournament is probably not going to make any FFG articles as it is though, even with only 2 ghost/fenn lists.

Meanwhile Round 3 has been uploaded featuring Damian Drzystek (#2 in swiss) with his nice Thweek, Dalan, Fenn list.
The Thweek, Guri, Fenn list that made it to the top 16 looked pretty ace-y, more fun watching that than a Ghost/Fenn mirror for sure.
