Coming from WB shouldn't get such a rediculous advantage. And then to get so many map picks due to redundancy in the multiple series system they are using just makes it worse. I know I'm biased, and I know it's BM, but I'm going to say it anyway... NonY deserved this spot and nothing but system flaws got it for Tasteless.  Oh well, gl anyways I guess. WCGs USA has been pretty wacky this year after the very typical online qual gayness, so I guess we should expect no less. | ||

However this 2 BO5 thing is about the only weird format where he wins because he won 3 games out of the last 5. Also it was setup so loser picks map (even carried on between the 2 BO5 series, so he got to pick the first map of the 2nd series) and you can pick same map over and over. He had practiced especially for Estrella and so we played that 4 times, Azalea 2 times, Gaia and PA only once. Anyway I didn't focus on training for PvP as much considering the lack of Protoss players in the US, I figured my PvP was good enough. However going 5-3 against someone still lets them slip through the cracks of the WCG organization. Anyway I apologize for my frankness (I know everyone at the qualifier is reading this) but I'm just saying what is on everyone's mind. A competition is still a competition and Tasteless took advantage of what was presented to him, so still I say congratulations to him. You can be sure that if anyone in the USA wants practice against a Protoss player I'll give them as many games as they want... except for Day of course, but somehow I don't imagine he'll have a problem beating Tasteless when the time comes. GL <3 that makes zero sense at all nony : P the winners braket gets the advantage, this was true at the other wcgs besides ours. further more i ended up playing the exact same people that you did at WCG and overall came out on top. I went 2-0 with the same person who ended up knocking you into the losers bracket 2-1 (manner kiss). I also went 2-0 with distant who went 1-2 with you. you were the only person i played who i actually lost to. While i do think 2 bo5s is excessive if it were 2 bo3s the results would have been the same with me winning. And no i didn't especially practice estrella, i kept picking the map because i noticed my build was more economical than yours when we played and you wern't changing it. The winners braket finalist always gets the advantage. GG's | ||

I already said, I'm a big NonY fanboy and I'd be pissed regardless of the conditions of his loss. This just makes it extra hard for me.  | ||

Nony did go 5-3 against Tasteless but Tasteless also 2-0'd Mannerkiss who beat Nony 2-1 Obviously Tasteless had practiced all matchups/maps if he went undefeated until finals. Nony played great, but obviously lacked in PvZ which Tasteless had mastered The system isn't flawed. I'm not taking away from your 5-3 nony - you're indeed a great player and it was some incredible games I watched. -Rose | ||
