[B]iris could've won, but instead did unnecessarily risky stuff in games 3 and 4. it has nothing to do with commitments to proleague (plus, kwanro had wcg also, iris had gom but that was over)


i was talking about good players being eliminated, not about iris


oh my bad.

4v4 is a battle of who has the better computer.

You know... I kicked my gf out of the room for various matches before, Heritage league epicness and the likes... Didnt mind taking the heat for it later on, after all games like Bisu-JD is better than sex :-) But I would never ever even think about doing it for Calm-Kwanro... Not a matchup I'd tune for in any freakin' stage. Depressing...

Agreed.

Luckily I don't have to kick my girlfriend out to watch bw. She just plays online poker while I watch it

FUCKIN IRIS, why does god hate you so much?

Being healthy, it has been said, really consists of having the same disease as everybody else.

Starleagues should change the format for finals, if 2 zergs make it there, finals should be played bo7 or bo9.

can all you zerg haters stop posting shit about how zerg is "boring"

Kwanro's zvz is pretty decent. I think he got a shot at the title.


zerg isnt boring, zvz is



Prediction: Mutas


i'll one up you and say drones.

And I'll raise you 1 hatch and throw in a couple of zerglings.

A ZvZ isn't ideal for finals I'll admit, but it beats having say a TvT for finals, I can't stand TvT. At least ZvZ games are quicker (too quick for a finals though imo).


Agreed. TvT is by far the most boring matchup.
TvT is often boring when played by the average progamer (and everyone below), but it can be very good at the top level. It also certainly has a lot more variance than ZvZ

TvT has the potential to produce great games of varying lengths. ZvZ is the same old stuff everytime basically, there are a few good games here and there but for the most part its the worst MU from the viewer perspective.


lets all pray for every zvz game in the next few weeks to be all like julyzerg vs yellow on bifrost and yellow vs ggplay on 815 >_______<

Instead of Jaedong vs Bisu we have Kwanro vs Calm. This is even worse than last MSL.

No they should make them play random and announce their races at the beginning.

holy shit i really cant believe all this hate and im honestly disgusted by people who actually believe iris threw the series

Do you dare deny that iris played unecessarilly risky and did stupid shit


I don't want to believe it, but after what I saw, there are the following options.

1. Matchfixing for money
2. Iris giving Kwanro the shot at the finals out of kindness
3. Haunted by GGPlay

Of those 3, number 1 seems most likely to me.

Nah, these are all really dumb ideas. Okay maybe 5% of #3, but really he just fucked up :<


Worst choke ever if that is the case. In game 3, he seemed to be flying his vessels around as though he was looking for Kwanro to snipe them. It looked very suspect to me.

Oh please no more. T_T

TvT is epic when it goes long though.
And PvP, meh, who cares? P got screwed this year.

Well honestly the thing is, from a viewing perspective I think people really enjoy most everything but zvz. Dont get me wrong I find zvz to be.. okay. But its so god damn anticlimactic its over before you know it, build order kills are rampant and its going to be the case for two finals? Fuuuuuck.


but hwatever its been covered already. I think people are really frustrated about tonight too.. cause man... man.

Well, calm pretty much earned his spot in the finals.....
Kwanro, maybe Iris gave it away or something?

Game 3 - maybe Iris was a little too confident.
Game 4 - after that vult failed to do any good damage, Iris was pretty much out of any back up plans.
Game 5 - Iris just crumbled?

This could be Iris' last chance of getting his MSL, beating Bisu in a great Bo5 and all, then giving this chance to his teammate? Maybe that's what they planned, giving the chance to Kwanro. I'm sure they know that Bisu will just mop the floor with Kwanro. Maybe the games were fixed, but winning the MSL would be a great thing for Iris, but winning the MSL would also be good for Kwanro....... I dunno...>_<

Good lord. Talk about a crappy season of starleague. Even the the 6 dragons era wasn't this bad, since those players were already really good. None of this Kwanro/Type-B stuff.
