DeMusliM: "[ActionJesus] is enough proof alone to say thay they shouldn't do best of one again"

The group stage at DreamHack Winter 2010 ended yesterday. Many players have aired their opinions on being best of one which have resulted in some unexpected outcomes.



People following the group stage of the tournament could witness the surprising elimination of players as LucifroN, SjoW, DeMusliM, TLO and Tarson. The best of one format premiered cheese and solid all-in builds, which some players took advantage of.

RESULTS: Group stage

One of the players qualifying through a DreamHack On Tour qualifier was the Danish player ActionJesus. In the group stage he was able to sixpool both LucifroN and NTT which put him through to the playoffs.

- "I think he is enough proof alone to say that they shouldn't do best of one again because the fact that he made it through just sixpooling everyone that's enough to say like 'hey, you shouldn't do best of one'," says Benjamin 'DeMusliM' Baker to GosuGamers.

RESULTS: Playoffs

- "I didn't acutally go in to the tournament knowing it was gonna best of one, so when I arrived that was a big surprise to me. I definitely think that helped with me going out but yeah, I don't feel good about what I did, I felt I could have done much better," DeMusliM answered after getting eliminated.

- "My biggest mistakes against Adelscott one of them was not scouting early enough. Given it's best of one I should've known I'd been so sensible to cheese and he took full advantage of that. By the time I scouted him he already had two gateways almost finished in my base so i was really really pissed off about that," says DeMusliM.

- "In general I had a mindset of playing a best of three, like you learn from the first game and then you go in to the next two and play your best and you know the guy's style, I just didn't have that."

Johan 'Naniwa' Luchessi lost to his two countrymen SjoW and MorroW in Group C. He agrees with DeMusliM, even saying ActionJesus did not deserve to advance.

- "I think it's kinda bad that they have best of one is such a big tournament. It really leaves a lot for luck. For example, ActionJesus qualified, I don't think he really deserved it," says Naniwa.
