Yesterday I decided to tune in Spyro_ZA's stream instead of the official casting of June top 16 qualifier because more people were there. Throughout his cast, he frequently ranted about how bad these players played, how Golden Nekker was the only reason these guys got into top 16, how these dumb dumb would absolutely get wrecked in the Open versus "real" players. His chat also joined in the clown fest and continuously bashed almost every plays. Of course his opinions were good, but they were off the mark sometimes, and he just acted all high and mighty as a noble watching some clowns.
But when I checked the bracket, there was Magpie, the Master winner in the top 16. There are also well-known players such as Bart, Kams, Danirai… in the bunch (dont know why Pajabol did not compete). The "clowny guys" who got into the finals actually had to beat those names for their places. So they of course had the skills and totally deserved more respect.
I understand as the most popular Gwent streamer, Spyro has contributed a lot to the community. I do hope that his stream yesterday was just the result of 2 months Nekker meta, and thus wish him all the best.
