I know the losses are tough against your opponents. I have no clue how it feels to be in your position, but try your best to keep your head up, king! We know you're cracked. You just gotta keep the mental strong during these tough matches when all bets are against you.
This was a devastating video. I'd been so impressed with your moving progress and then Shiina comes and dismantles it so convincingly. The 2 moving game format really scares me with players like this in the pool. Not only does that favour moving players, but moving games are inherently less volatile, making it far less likely for even a slightly weaker player to win compared to NM(PZ) where 1 hard round on multis can be a practical 50/50. And we can't even pretend Shiina is weak on NM. What a strong showing from him. I do respect you for uploading this rather brutal series, and I hope you can defeat not only your opponents, but also this format.
I think that he would be able to concentrate better if he didn't have to explain his selection. Anyway, I'm looking forward to Asia regionals. Should be a blast.
don't be discouraged, you're making crazy progress and I feel like a lot of your "blunders" is just nerves. Give yourself a break now and then, and be confident that you're the goat
People already said it, but you’re still the goat. Everybody gets psyched out sometimes. Maybe on a round like the Uberlandia one, assume he will find the city no matter how fast you plonk, because that’s his thing, so take a deep breath and try to get a little more info. You will conquer moving!
It was nice of Shiina to let you win a few rounds! Kidding aside, really well played. Looking forward to seeing you win the next World Cup at this rate!
Zigzag getting baited by Newcastle when it’s Newcastle-under-Lyme is just tragic. FYI there’s also a Newcastle even closer to the Wales border, and a fourth in south eastern NI.
I was really feeling for him in that round - especially as I knew where Sandbach was and so was urging him to look somewhere else; it was like watching a slow-motion car crash as he inched his guess closer to Newcastle-upon-Tyne, knowing what was about to happen.
No doubt this one does not feel good, the whole vibe tilted in shiinas favour due to the moving games. No skill issues tho, so i would just analyze and process these games, and not care about the results at all. You'll be much better prepared bc of that and come back stronger, ready for the qualis 😊
Hey zi8gzag - regarding your 1st round vs Eamonn yesterday, there was zero Welsh language on any of the signs, though you kept looking at and then guessed in Wales - this isn't the first time I've noticed you make a similar mistake in recent months so it seems to be something you should perhaps brush up on. Also on that round the info showing both Antrim and Ballymena was visible - both are fairly sizeable towns in Northern Ireland and Antrim is one of only 6 counties in NI. Though I'm aware revising all the UK and Ireland counties would be a bit more of a tricky task than just remembering to check for Welsh language.
The word "Bally" is everywhere in Irish towns. I'm not an expert on Welsh or Scottish, but I'd definitely immediately assume Ireland (the Island and rightful singular country) if I see the word Bally. I'll add "Dun" and "Kil" to the list, too. Extremely superficial scanning told me that "Dun" and "Kil" are also common in Scotland.
That 4th game - the second NM one - just re-emphasises how utterly screwed up those high multis are. zig played better and won the vast majority of the early rounds and was far ahead in health, yet lost the whole thing with one not terrible round but with friggin' 6x damage.

Tip from a german for the Germany Rhein-Main round. The Rhein-Main region is around Frankfurt, because that is where the Main flows into the Rhein.

Fun way to remember the NI counties is the acronym ‘FATLAD’: Fermanagh, Armagh, Tyrone, (London)Derry, Antrim, Down :)

@@JohnAndJohner Yep, Bally is more common in NI for refernece too!
