But if you check now for Savior it says that If there was a savior slump, its over now. I think the Power Rank is going to change drastically. Yeah it propebly will change now but one of the reasons that it will is iris beating savior even if savior played shit in the first and third game ._. I could have just said "two players who before the tournament were considered propable finalists" My experience is that Iris always does well when the stakes are high. In last osl iris was considered a good TvTer but not much else by most people here. No one expeted him to win his quarterfinal but he did, then got savior to the fifth game in the semifinal that he might aswell have won. After that he raped Casy 3-0. I bet he would have won over nada in the final if he had a chance. Maybe Iris doesnt show much in the offseason but I think its a good idea to fear him in the finals if he reaches them. And its about time he gets a title. He deserves it. He so does! deserves a title shot anyway, I hope it'll be vs GGPlay, I'd hate to see a PvP and TvT finals :/
Well, Iris seldom makes his TvT boring. It's usually over really fast. If it were Xellos vs. Goodfriend... now that would require stamina.

My alarm just went off--three hours late. Turns out the piece of shit is broken.

I woke up a little after 4:30 AM. Both alarms had been turned off. I have no memory of waking up at any point before 4:30 or turning off any alarms. My roommate didn't stay here tonight, so he didn't do it; I must have been more tired than I realized.
So now here I am, lurking this thread until my man yakii comes and saves the day. Happens to me alot. I use three alarms(alarm clocks and my cell) I swear i turned them on but i wake up not remembering an alarm even rang. Surprised at results. Feel bad for stork abit but Iris deserves it too. Looking forward for flash vs. ggplay now.

doesnt your alarms keep rining til you turn it off? ~~ or hit snooze and then goes back on?
|
Not to derail the thread with more alarm clock chatter, but...
I usually set my cell phone alarm and stick it next to my bed (which would be easy enough to turn off in my sleep, I guess), but then I have an alarm clock that I purposefully stick across the room so that I have to get out of bed. That's the one that's broken. ahahah

why this mindless toss had to eliminate MANTOSS ! Fuckin no.Ob -_-;
IriS's something you can't understand ! How he could just rape a BIRD !
|
GGplay will be the winner for sure. He probably has the best ZvTin the world right now. And with only T's left, it can only be him. However I do expect the games to be good and close like 3-2 both of them.

nah id still say ipx has best zvt

I'd say DJEtter has a better idea of who's better than who than most people on this forum, seeing as how he's been consistently in the top ~1-5 of Liquibet. Sure opinions are opinions; but his opinions match results better that most others.

im so happy iris won
i think iris really believed he was going to win Shinhan3 and was kind of on a mission this time
what does it say to savior if iris eliminates him and then immediately gets raped by stork, someone savior beat in the msl?
now i'm not as mad at iris for beating savior, still a little because the OSL won't be as entertaining, but not as much
here's to hoping he wins the whole thing against GGPlay

Yeah Nada tied with GGplay but i GGplay plays againts Flash like he did vs Casy or in that one game vs Nada, then you know what I am talking about Sebasta.
And Iris's TvZ is not really godly, he's only good againts the likes of Savior but againts other zergs, I don't think he stands a chance really. Remember that game vs that noob zerg Odin?
..you are an idiot. No progamer ever considers losing on purpose. No progamer MAYBE considers losing on purpose.
Odin is not noob, he has good ZvT. Just because Iris lost to him once doesn't mean shit.

Waoh Iris.. i'm impressed.
He's pretty much my favourite to win the whole thing now. lol at those saying iris isn't that good tvt...

Ruined my day. GGPlay fighting, I guess.

Just watched Game 1, Iris had a bit of luck with those early vults, Stork was to blame too with his lacklustre scouting.
roll on game 2 n 3
|
This semi-final really made my day.

If sAviOr tells Iris the truth about what's going in his mind when he faced terran in his dominating era and Iris successfully manages to fully understand what sAviOr is talking about... he MAY beat a Zerg like GGPlay.
Well, I'd say i don't see any chance for Flash to get into the final...
