Well I was 100% sure he had already become World Champion when SYQ beat LD after LCW and SWH withdrawals..
You have to watch other threads. People will say he is the best player of the year. It only takes on big tournament. (Sorry, couldn't resist...)
There is no geo-block in most of Europe either so you could try Finland or Netherlands as well for example ... #AstroX99
KM's path to the final is rosy but he played his best on final's day to beat SYQ who seemed clueless how to play him.
Same, hoped for drama. But 1. Momota plays so accurate and smooth SYQ can't attack, esp off position, combined with KM counterattack and defense it makes not too much sense to go all out 2. SYQ didn't find his form today, not relaxed enough, but it was his first big final, esp after being finally confirmed chn new no. 1 MS! Up to this WC most asked themselves if CL, LD can come back at the big stage...
I think the organizer was wise to put MD last. At least the home country has a fighting chance to win it.
impressive and flawless play by Momota, congratulations! SYQ is still young.. he will be more dangerous next year..i dont think KM and VA at SYQ's age, have silver WC..
