Do you remember, like, a week ago when we talked about how much certain pros (alright, mostly MSL) were complaining about the 'nade drop thing?

Begrudgingly, we might have to say he might have had a point. Aleksib was getting dropped a couple of HEs every round and he was making them stick - as he put up nearly 1000 utility damage in one half.

If you want to see exactly how he was racking up that damage, check out coach lau's excellent video on it. If you just want to look at some pretty numbers, OG averaged 119 util. damage per round in that one half, with Aleksib at around 65.

42.2 was his average for the whole map, which is much higher than most TEAMS get in a tournament. It dropped off after a 50 round game against ENCE, funnily enough.

A lot of respect has to go to Aleksi for his excellent abus- usage, usage of the new 'nade dropping mechanic, but also it should be noted that it wouldn't have been possible without that new change.

And guess who was ready to point that out?
