I think a lot of people expected ret or Tyler to fall, but they really performed quite well this MLG. | ||

Just in general it seems like select is struggling but his series vs thorzain was amazing. | ||

So yea, Select is a little out of form. Even if he was in form, his group was extremely tough. | ||

 SeleCT is still smashing face in the NASL... could be a bad weekend for him. Maybe he ate some of that canned fish that Nani was supposed to bring down  | ||

The loss to Tyler was probably disappointing, but losing to Idra, Ret and MC is understandable as they're 3 of the best players on the planet right now. On top of that Select's TvZ has always been his weakest matchup. Also, select said he couldn't practice very much in the days leading up to MLG, so he felt he was under practiced. So yea, Select is a little out of form. Even if he was in form, his group was extremely tough. I can understand MC and Idra but Ret? He is a good player man, but I wouldn't say he is one of the top 3 on Earth. | ||

Lose a few rounds and automatically in a slump is pretty silly to think. Dallas didnt have the great korean players, and there are a ton of new people for this mlg, such as thorzain. | ||

The extended series games between him and Thorzain today (day 3) were simply amazing.Select i feel was never really that good. He simply had smart openers, but since i can remember has always suffered in the late game aspect, as the game turns more macro. | ||

I'd disagree and say he had smart openers plus he has some of the best multitasking I've ever seen on a featured terran stream here at TL. vs Thorzain spoiler: + Show Spoiler + Getting knocked out by Thorzain isn't something to be ashamed of. Only takes a few mistakes vs the current TSL champ will cost you a game. His defense in the last game of their series was awesome, I really thought he'd take the game when he denied like 4 pushes in a row. | ||

Ret's known to slack but when he's practicing he's absolutely one of the best players. Even Idra acknowledges Ret as being immensely talented. Just look at Ret's brood War career and his assembly win for what he can do when he's in form. Also he's like 6-1 in the NASL, which included a win over Select. Ret > Select is definitely not an upset lol. | ||

i think he played too much "ladder style" where you aim for a 2 bases timing while the meta game is so outdated and everyone in MLG is trying to aim for a 30 mins game. | ||
