i think all teams played well in gst, with some teams playing better than others, certain teams got slightlt lucky (DoT included)
alumni deserved to win, eko killed it out there, i dont personally think that all this hate on certain sparrers is really needed, i can understand the hate towards certain sparrers about how they come across,
but with defencive sparring against offence, defensive is fine when it comes to survive and stuff, but as long as you get enough hits as 'staying alive the whole round' isnt true with both of these methods, getting more than 6 hits is really the main goal, this means that you've done the damage needed, anymore hits are just bonus's,
the better sparrers amoung us can swap between these styles, with being able to react to certain situations, mastering both of these methods i would say is the 'god tier' of sparring, i dont personally think that anyone has done this, i think people are suprisingly good at both, but nowhere near mastery.
Personally id say sparring is evolving, new players everyday are joinging bigger teams and getting themselves known, and smaller teams getting themselves known,
i enjoyed this gst, and with it not being recorded is fine by me, but i think the staff should have a recording of all games.
just my opinions
Thanks, Dia
