TvT is awsome, actually the best mirror in BW. The problem is many of those matches were played by mediocre players who wouldnt take an initiative even to save their lives. If this occur, reluclance to beeing aggresive can turn a TvT into a slugfest.

I think ZvZ is a lot like trying to hold in a fart after a night of heavy drinking and eating too much white castle. One wrong move and you're knee deep in shit.

I agree with TvT being like chess.

I want to fuck Soulkey with a Zelderan.

PvP is just two people hurling imbalanced units (high templar and reaver) at each other's defenseless probes, so I'd say it's kinda like bowling.

Zerg versus zerg: Knife fight. Up close and personal, one slip up will end in a lethal blow.

Protoss versus protoss: Jousting. In this slug fest between two brawlers, they need to build up a some momentum to end.

Terran versus terran: Sniper duels. Two pussies trying to get a positional advantage and try to camp the living hell out of each other.

Wow, i read Flashftw's post before falling asleep and thought bowling would be the perfect answer. So this is a well timed post and Im glad i wasnt alone in thinking that.

LOL commentators with top profanity quotes - "goliaths are good for clearing mines" "they are good against vultures and tanks" little did they know player build them for anti air purpose against wraiths...

Now about the games, after watching the sloppy jaedong vs best i get the feeling jaedong is not yet ready for the competition in BW, his army control was just terrible. After it, i just see Jaedong becomes the most lucky player ive seen, getting 2 free wins in a row.

Mind vs Best - All Best need is goons to win vs mind :D
To be more serious mind throw this game by underestimating opponent as he did numerous times to weaker opponents. Glad for best and Jaedong to advance, but they are definitely the weakest players in this group.
Luv ya BroodWar!
