Take win. Sorry but Proposing to play for my 2 / 3am was not nice after having written it as well. if you prefer I can try to play in one of the days before the deadline, remember that I am gmt + 2.
Yea, Wednesday was a bad day to play for me, I will be able to do today, but not Friday as I will be leaving Aruba with a couple long flights back home.
 
4th place isn’t too bad for my first LT, but ggs to close I got fuked up in that series, here are my predicts for the rest of the tour tho, close Beats synon, close takes one series off squirtell but then squirtell wins the next winning LT, anyways I had fun playing in this

Squirtell 1v1 vs Synonimous

ggs bro!

I had a lot of fun! Unfortunately the summer cheated me right in the final part of the tour where I was not able to better prepare the teams to bring, I was lucky vs James to catch some favorable matchups for the whole series without a minimum of prep (I was on vacation from mobile phone with team taken at random). I made myself read too easily and Syno, rightly, punished me (see that he didn't arrive in the final not by chance). Good luck in the final. I'm going home with a third place, definitely above my expectations probably. I alsI thank the tour directors for lengthening the deadlines

Also thks AltCauseImInsecure and Lancer Fr for help me to prepare all rounds and support me . and also who have cheering me during whole of tour

@tourdirectors: It would also be nice to have a 1v1 Draft, if you manage to fit in the tour's scheduling and it's ok for ruling

my prediction for Final (first series):

Synonimus vs Squirtell : I think squirtell is the best player of the moment and one of the best SMers in the circuit. He has great skills in both building and battling and I wouldn't be surprised if he won the LT. Syno has proven to have great preparation skills and good in-game reading and I think it will be enough to win a series. For the grand final, I don't skip over who will win

see ya boys, it was a pleasure

LT was my first solo tourney that I've had any success in (I see you winter and spring ssnl). Just qualifying was a task for me.
Shoutouts to dom, Wail, James, and Rav for telling me that 1836 was enough and I could sleep cycle 2.
Thanks to all the homies that didn't snipe my spot week 4 so I could slip in.
Thanks to my opponents, aaee, Ravonne, Ayedan, and Close for putting up with my terrible availibility and playing series at midnight.
Despite being braindead under stress, I couldn't be happier with second place from this tournament, relatively hax free.
Thanks to all of US West for supporting me throughout, lets get that WC dub.
And especially thanks to Squirtell. Having to prep for you and play you is one of the most challenging experiences I've had in 1v1. You definitely deserve every win you got.

It's been good. ggs

I had a fun time this tour. Considering this was one of my first tours, I didn't expect to get past the first couple rounds, let alone win. I'm glad I got to play all of these great players. Overall, ggs to everyone, no matter how far you made it. Laddering can be a pain, so good job to everyone who qualified. Thank you everyone who gave me a great series.
