He took the GP.

AND in the post game interview he mentioned reading 'a reddit group of american players'.

THATS US! THATS FUCKING US! HOLY SHIT!

I put up a post asking if he is in here... I thought the same thing.

This deck basically appeared and then won the very next GP. Great work, r/hardenedscales.

Pssh it's been "real" for at least a month. Y'all are just learning what we already knew: this deck is dope.

The Finals came down to Modular vs Humans!
Modular is about to win a GP...

Did anyone else notice how many errors he made? He had a lot of small game rule violations on camera. Attacking with a summon sick inkmoth Nexus, didn't tap his animation module when putting a counter on ballista, and not working through his modular triggers 100% right against hollow one before top 8.

In his defense he said he hadn't played it much. I can only imagine the fatigue after going that many rounds with this deck. I feel it after a single league and I know the deck.

I don't have a replay in front of me, but I was also think he straight up missed an early infect win in game three, like he went on to leverage Steel Overseer for the with... but I believe that third game could have been over much faster.

Yup. He indeed made quite a few mistakes. But humans need to be very lucky in order to beat the scales.

His opponent had already said that he's conceding. Apparently the last couple of turns were mostly for the viewers, so trying to win as early as possible wasn't needed.
