Edit: though it does seem to be true that protoss is by far the most played race at lower levels, among foreigners at least. When is the finals cast? | ||

 if it were Bo7, Team 7 would be a sure win, but as it is, slightly favored... but who knows. | ||

Also, i was just trying to play the underdog-card there, It seems pretty close. I hope no one is casting the games since ill be super duper nervous. I also dont hope for a T or a P, or a Z. EDIT: Im also one win away from hitting C-, that should be scary to face in the finals, right? :D | ||

We're playing for fun here firstly I think it's pretty cool to have a final against a team we won just 3-2. It should be the hell of a fight. | ||

Well personally I don't get that much nervous since Brood War is fun and having a great CW is all about fun imo... FUN FUN FUN But yeah it's different for each individuals. But we must keep in mind that if this gets casted, it's still a D level competition so mistakes are more than likely to happen so no one should take it personally and start to shake whenever something like this happens. | ||

Lucky for me I play better when I have that nervousness/adrenaline. | ||

Anyways, been getting some quality coaching from a swedish b- dude so i hope ill do okay, or at least not as bad as i do against him (he rapes me in every match up) I don't know dude. You were a win away from C- on week 3 as well But you're in the finals so you've proven yourself already. Good luck! ^_^ | ||

Same for me, but mainly because I'm not nervous at all and the other guy is, giving me an advantage I think. Sometimes I say I'm nervous at live local tourneys (SC2) coz its fun to hype it up with friends, but its nothing like playing a musical instrument in front of a crowd or anything like that. I think Jaedong said it best "what's the point?". There's no point being nervous, especially when there's no money on the line. First and really only time I was ever really nervous, was playing a game against G5 on his stream. Mainly because I knew people would just see me get owned and somehow thought it would be a bad reflection on me if I didn't at least give him some competition (which I didn't) :D On February 08 2012 09:07 Skeggaba wrote: Very true, i just cant seem to reach the yellows yet...

I will say for me the key to nerves has always been focus on the task. Your nervous because your thinking about all the wrong things: "people watching", "making a fool of yourself", "letting your team down", etc. On that note there are really too kinds of nerves. Everyone is nervous before a big match, its the type and how it's channeled that matters. One type is just the intensity and expectation for a big match, your pumped up and want to do well, whereas the other variation is where instead of being excited in a positive way your scared shitless and worrying about "Oh god I'm gonna mess this up". What then, does one do? In my opinion the key is your focus. You channel the nervousness to being solely focused on the game. Upon your execution. One thing to this end that I have found really helpful is a pre- EDIT: If anyone needs a protoss practice partner message me. EDIT2: Yes, I plan on casting the finals, hopefully live. I have an 8km race that morning, which between travel and WU/CD I will be at that from say 12:16 GMT (+00:00) to 12:16 GMT (+00:00). Anytime around that will work. | ||
