yay, two awesome groups in a row!! Savior is so going to 2-0 this group!!!!!!!!!!! (He better >:-( !)
|
Savior and Anytime win the initial matches...
But Ruby will prevail with Savior to make it out! (Yes, I was crazy when I made this prediction)
|
sAviOr!!!!!!!! then i don't really care who else wins, but maybe anytime for a little nostalgia, or Kal for a new protoss spectacle, i wanna see him on bigstages more
|
Savior this is your chance to win now! Bisu is out of your way and the only one standing your way is Mind! but i kinda want Mind to win his 2nd MSL again :D but if you win this your gonna be the first player ever to get the 4th MSL

sAviOr plz don't lose like bisu

Yeah, I was thinking the same, but I made predictions purely based on fanboyism @_@.
Somehow my gut tells me that since Bisu didn't make it, Savior's gonna end up screwing up and not making it as well during possibly the ONE time that his arch-nemesis is already eliminated, thereby losing a critical chance for another MSL.

You dare speak of Savior losing in the RO 32? You guys are mad

Kal/Ruby can throw in an upset it wouldn't be completely implausible, so this group is actually gonna be pretty entertaining to say the least.
|
ruby > savior anytime > kal anytime > ruby savior > kal savior > ruby
|
I will be happy with savior and anyone qualifying.
I want anytime back in the leagues. I want to see Kal do something in individual leagues. And ruby is up and coming as well.
|
I'm thinking Savior and Kal, but I'd love to see Ruby advance.
|
...... just kidding. i totally did not see katrina there.
but still. i highly doubt savior's gonna lose to ruby.
|
Really now, Bisu's already gone, please Savior, don't leave us too.
I'm going with Savior/Kal on this one.
|
ANYTIME PLEASE
ANYTIME PLEASE
ANYTIME PLEASE ONE TIME PLEASE
|
I think maps will have their say here.
Both protoss will have a shot playing on Katrina, which severely benefits Protoss. Savior has a last saving grace with Blue Storm, but we all remember how it went last time he played on that map. My guess is that another crotchdance could send him in a murderous spree.
Anyway, here are my predictions:
Savior > Ruby Anytime > Kal Anytime > Savior Kal > Ruby Savior > Kal
Very conservative and stat based, I know. The only guess I might take is Kal beating Savior in teh last game. Frankly, I think Savior is in trouble right now, and now might not be the moment where he rebounds.

After watching Savior in his ODT group, I must say he has a huge chance of advancing- but then again, Savior has been really inconsistent lately, showing maybe one game of glory and then returning to his slumping play the next. This one is really up in the air for me.
|
SaviOr / Anytime
anyone else advancing wouldn't be right
Personally I say
sAviOr > Ruby
Anytime > Kal
Anytime > sAviOr (could go either way)
Kal > Ruby
sAvior > Ruby
|
This is a really really hard group to predict. I put Savior because its savior and Kal because of the maps (aka I didnt pick ruby because I think the maps work against him) and his win against stork imrpessed me. Any combination of players advancing wouldn't really suprise me though.

Ruby has expo up and2nd and 3rd rax building. Savior is morphing lair and has an evo chamber at his back nat. I think a spire just started behind the front nat.
|
Ruby adds a quick ebay after starting cc and is now adding rax. Savior gets an early evo to respond to the fast ebay. Savior adding a very very early spire. He seems to be going for a +1 ground army + muta timing attack. After Rubys third rax he adds a fact and gets his nat gas, which saviors overlord sees.
|
savior snaek a 4th base on bottom right corner. spire still morphing. getting a 2nd evo chamber. ruby builds a starport. 6 mutas moved out

Very interesting. Savior has a second evo down and a base in the far right corner. Guess hes definitely not going for a timing attack, but rather just light harass to try to keep Ruby in his base. Its not working however as Ruby moves out right away towards the far right base. Savior trying to add sunkens and stallingwith mutas.

Huge mistake by ruby as Saviors sunkens are up in time and with nice muta micro he stops the first marine force with only minor loses!

Nice defense by savior there and a gutsy move by Ruby, that did reduce the muta count.

HIve started as the mutas return to annoy the terran base. Ground armor is done. A 4th and 5th rax down for Ruby. He also has a vessel out and is very safe vs mutas. Ultra den almost done already! Savior looking so strong. If he scourges well he can take this easy. 2 port vessel with no fact addon. SK Terran for ruby.

A flurry of irridiates cover the ultras. Savior was definitely hurt by that. Dropship moving out. Defilier mound down. Amazing micro! Ruby targets saviors scourge to keep his vessels alive despite the ultras absorbing fire. A nic drop comes into saviors rear nat. But a swarm and lings save. Defilier is covered in green radiation. Wow ruby doing suprising ly well. moving in trying to breakthe sunks at saviours nat. Savior in trouble! Ultras helpless aginast the huge terran ball.

Anytime's fanbase is so imba

Honestly savior completely choked at the exact time when he needed to control perfectly. He lost his scourge, then tried to engage without scourge and got all his ultras irradiated without being able to press his advantage. From there it was all downhill. He really needed to keep those scourge alive and then just go ahead and engage and take down the vessels.
|
its kinda funny
losing the defiler mound was essentially the game changing moment
if savior had kept that, he would have been able to defend everything just fine haha
but, he lost that so GG hahahahaha

No, the best part was when his 4 first ultras were already slightly weakened and then were irradiated, and then instead of killing a few marines with them he pulled them back to watch them die with 0 kills each.

I'm surprised he didn't get a couple of scourge to patrol the area, or post overlords to keep a lookout.
The worst was when he dark swarmed it and it still died. Sigh.

i\'m reading alot of people criticize a bunch of other elements of savior\'s play
although losing scourge or having low unit count \"isn\'t very good,\" it didn\'t really have the most critical impact on the game. doing the fast ultralisk tech style savior is doing is a momentum play. you look really dangerously weak in the early game, but then you stabilize up, and you are good to go (w/ 5 gas yaaay).
however, since savior lost a handful of units in the midgame (again totally ok) he needed that defiler mound to stay alive.
sadly, it didn\'t stay alive. so, ruby was allowed to just walk up to savior\'s front and smash his face in half. simple game, but still very nice play by ruby from start to finish. excellent turret placement if i might add

Because all his larvae were making lings and ultras and it still wasn't enough to kill the mm? The vessels didn't matter at that point.

no hydra mount at all. Just mutas -> ultra

Ya not anticipating at least 1 drop when you know your opponent has 2 ports is pretty bad.
|
On January 10 2008 18:53 soccercop wrote: i couldnt see the game live.....didnt he have any lurkers?
I don't think he had an hydra den even.
He really teched very fast, did NOTHING with his mutas except defend an expansion (but losing 5 mutas in the process to about 12 marines, 2 firebats and 4 medics). Then he lost his Defiler Mound, and bad scourge use and Ultralisk use caused him to lose a lot of lisks quickly to irradiate. Ruby then proceeded to roll over.
A few lurkers would ahve been a good idea. I think Savior teched too fast.

The game sounded like this... sAviOr defends his fourth gas then Ruby drops and kills defiler mound. sAviOr dies Is that all that happened?

cause of that was ruby had army in front of saviour's nat. really couldn't pay attention to other things(dropship) since saviour doesnt know when he gonna just rush in.
after dropship owned his tech builing, ruby just rushed in.

yeah, savior teched too fast. the strat he used needed the defiler the most. without is is like fighting a brick wall.

savior went fast muta --> ultra tech (very standard) ruby goes fast expo --> 7rax 2port vessel (very standard)
savior is looking good w/ 5gas (6th morphing) but is low on units. savior is not worried because he has defilers!
ruby makes a big drop on savior's back expo, killing 2 evos and defiler mound. ruby knows there are no swarms to worry about, and attack moves savior's front.

The purpose of the build is to get raped by SKTerran.

although losing scourge or having low unit count \"isn\'t very good,\" it didn\'t really have the most critical impact on the game. doing the fast ultralisk tech style savior is doing is a momentum play. you look really dangerously weak in the early game, but then you stabilize up, and you are good to go (w/ 5 gas yaaay).
however, since savior lost a handful of units in the midgame (again totally ok) he needed that defiler mound to stay alive.
sadly, it didn\'t stay alive. so, ruby was allowed to just walk up to savior\'s front and smash his face in half. simple game, but still very nice play by ruby from start to finish. excellent turret placement if i might add cause of that was ruby had army in front of saviour's nat. really couldn't pay attention to other things(dropship) since saviour doesnt know when he gonna just rush in. after dropship owned his tech builing, ruby just rushed in.
yeah that's exactly what i'm saying.
the front bustin couldn't have happened w/o the defiler mound being dead. pobre savior hahaha. he must be feeling so much pressure these days

Well, I think that in that situation where his harass was totally useless, he shouldn,t have continued on with that. But that's my opinion.
I know about the muta harass => Ultra build. However, if you can't kill a single SCV, try to stay alive before thinking about Ultras. That's where i think Savior made his mistake, in not adapting to Ruby's play and the flow of the game.

drop have 12 marines and 2 medics, evo was getting armor and defiler mount wasnt doing anything.

wish savior could use the mutalisks more effectively like Jaedong. remembered how Jaedong used mutaliasks to halt Hwasin very much in the game at Tau Cross. that was amazing...if savior could do that.

fuck, fuckign WoW. i typed fast cuz hydra den response was way behind.

BlackSphinx
there was very little wrong w/ savior's play that game. muta-->ultra is very standard. savior played completely fine against ruby's opening. savior likes to expand alot and have thin defenses until his momentum can kick in. That is, savior relies heavily on defilers to defend himself and key times. That "key time" was when ruby had 3 bases and the large MnM army at his front and the 2 dships. Savior simply needed to toss some scourge at his back and not lose his defiler mound. had savior kept his defiler mound, he would have been able to fend the front push and then would have had 5 secure gas (6th finished, but not very secure) to pump out very upgraded ultra+ling+defiler.
now THAT would have been scary.
if savior had just kept that mound up, ruby probably would have had some good macro, and eventually lost and everyone would have gone "yup! that's savior"
but, again, who cares.
goooo anytime!!!!

i dont see any possible way why it was poorly excuted, when saviour stayed in base for whole time? ruby simply owned him

Anytime @ 9, Kal @ 12.
Both are going reavers and have their expansions up. Kal attacked earlier, but Anytime won the engagement at his nat due to Kal not focus firing, w/ Anytime ending with 4-5 goons and Kal retreating his 3 weakened ones.

kal is red anytime white?

Kal's nat destoryed, dt's standing by, wait, they are dead. anytime still reinforce goons
|
Archives started for Kal, and Anytime with noticeably larger army.
Anytime charges Kal's nat! Probes to defend and both lose their reavers. Kal left with 1 goon and Anytime blasts away at Kal's nat nexus, which is destroyed. Anytime in control now with Kal stuck in his base w/ few units.
Kal had a reaver and dts out, but Anytime manages to snipe the reaver and had well positioned obs, and maintains his control of Kal's ramp.

Yes the game would have turned in saviors favour, but the way it ended both sides were still pretty much equal. If they had done more, then savior would have gotten an advantage depending on the extent of the damage. The deciding factor of the game was not saviors muta control, it was the loss of the defiler mound (as pointed out by Day very well in his post)
|
um, big battle both lost their reavers.
|
Kal attempts to harass w/ 2 dt and shuttle, but cannon and obs stop it as Anytime uses his reaver to crack Kal's ramp defense of a few goons. As Anytime finishes off the last goons, Kal ggs.
Anytime versus Ruby for winner bracket!
So far: Ruby > sAviOr Anytime > Kal
Winners: Anytime vs Ruby Losers: Kal vs sAviOr

WoW really nice game by Anytime, his forces just steamrolled Kal like nothing even though both side lost their reavers.

I'm going to go 0/4 at this rate. -.-

ugh, i guess i will post some epic screenshots until someone find them annoying.

and as i've been saying, ruby is the new mind. he's going to come out of nowhere (offline qualifiers) and win this MSL.

if anytime wins, savior will likely to face ruby again.. great if savior can pound him..
|
keep it up with the reports plz

Ruby is terrible. He'll be lucky to make it out of the Ro32.
And he's been around long enough to not have been out of nowhere anyways.

Terrible? No. Will he win MSL? Extremely unlikely.

why would he need carrier micro? Anytime didnt lose much units for the whole game, he was building up his ground force while his carrier was harassing the 3rd base, the whole army all he needed was to attack move ruby and he won, which he did anyway =/

Whats the difference between the red and orange Gom Player buttons to get it to play?
|
It's funny how well GOM player works when there are commercials... (maybe not streamed in the same way though)
|
|
i think red is higher quality stream, not sure though

red = high quality, orange = low quality. i recommend the orange button if ur not anywhere close to korea

Amnesty: red is higher stream quality so choose it only if you're sure to handle it (slower)...
|
anytime ............. GOOD JOB
|
GOM crashed on me, but I managed to get it working again after relentless clicking on the orange button. Please don't let my effort go to waste, Savior...

Why does Kal want a name like GooJila, at least Kal sounds cool, Goojila totally ........ just........ ?

after seeing Savior losing to Free in the proleague, i have slight doubts of his ZvP matchup. but i hope Savior can take this one.

SAvior looking for a painful revenge...
|
Thisis a contest to see who has the bigger balls!
|
cannon rush succesful! very nice by cal, used 4-5 probes to stop the drones from taking down the cannons. Savior cancels hatch just before it finish
hmm now he seems to double expand.. just outside cals base??

What's he building at the front nat? Is Savior faking mutas?
|
1 sunken up stargate up
4 mutas up but kal already have 3 sairs defending
|
i think he's faking hydra
|
Kal heavily cannon both main and exp when seeing the spire
|
Savior with mutas, Kal cannoning up everywhere
|
Scouted by corsair in time and Kal is adding cannons everywhere. Savior had better do something fast.
|
definitely a fake. Savior and his mind games.
|
|
savior sacrifices mutas in attack, no econ, no overlords, just hydras
|
|
gosu engage by savior, keeping ground forces low
|
Savior trades overlords for zealots in his hydra attack
|
Savior refuses to build spore colonies under any circumstances; I think I've seen him build a spore colony in 1 game, and in that game it was way too late.
|
kal FP shows 7 sairs, hunting a lot of overlords
savior drops with 2 OL at cliff
later morph into lurker but Kal got HT and stormed the eggs
|
Savior's play in recent times make me scared. makes me like...."hope he doesn't do anything stupid and wins"
|
Kal successfully defends, and moves out with mostly zeal army, looks over soon

|
sAviOr no confidence anymore.
|
He's just playing like shit recently. He goes the exact wrong strat, picks the worst times to attack, leaves his overlords idle to die to sairs, spawns new overlords exactly where 8 +1 corsairs are sitting, doesn't pick off the sole obs when he goes lurks, doesn't cancel like 6 dying eggs morphing into lurks, etc, etc.

i thought everything was fine till he morphed to defenseless lurkers. and sairs was doing a lot of collecting. damn neo toss build.

wow.. that just made 1 of my prediction wrong, thought he was going to win this round.. failed even more LOL.
what kind of excuses do we have now saviour fanboys? poorly excuted strategy again?

savior should stop hydra rushing except vs bisu and just play normal -_-
And i liked it when he lurks not just straight into ultras

Summary:
Toss @ 6, zerg @ 3.
Savior exps to natural outside his main, kal then very nicely uses 5 probes and a cannon rush to force a cancel of the hatch. Savior responds by taking the 1 o'clock expansion and the expansion outside kals main(!).
Kal takes the 4 o'clock expansion and builds corsair from 2 SGs. Savior fakes hydra but kal sees this and builds a lot of cannons both at main and 3 expansion. Savior realises mutas are a waste and goes heavy on hydras, tries to break the main cannons, but is forced back by zeals,cannons and corsairs, losing his whole muta force in the process. Kal starts to build a ground army of mainly zeals.
Savior tries to break main with only hydras once more, but kal pushes back, barely saves his main but loosing a lot of zealots. In the meanwhile Kals 6-7 corsair kills a lot of overlords in Savior's main.
Savior applies more pressure by dropping 12 or so hydras in Kals main, causes some havoc but new forces from Kals Gateways rather easily clear his base again. Savior's attacks runs out of steam as his hydra count is low and he is hurting from all the overlords Kal has killed.
Savior does one last attempt to break the main of Kal, but now kal has a nicely mixed army with a lot of zeals backed up by 2-3 archons and a few goons. He easily kills the attacking force and then proceed to saviors expansion just outside his base...
Savior does a short last stand but realises he has no more forces and GG's.
Well that's about it... No more Savior in MSL

But why is every 1 wondering savior losing to Kal suprising ? If i remember Kal's PvZ was quite good, maybe 4th or even 3rd behind free. savior made bad choices in attacking and using the muta, but i still believe this Msl will be promising with Mind around .

Savior needs some rest really. i think the team overplayed Savior or Savior over practised and is losing sleep....which means he lacks strength.

Judging by the way things are going My Prediction + Show Spoiler +Ra will win this MSL by his recent records

loooooooooooollllllllllllllllllllll
1/4 definitly

sAviOr drops then a friggin lag fest with total freeze until he GG's. Goddamnit! This is so sad I just can't believe it he's out way too soon. Or maybe not with the way he's been playing. It's just sad to see the Maestro go down like this. Guess he can hardly play his game anymore...
That intro looks "funnier" now with both Bisu and sAviOr out. Who's next as the say, Mind perhaps? Would be ugly to see that opening everytime with the first three out of the picture. Haha.
sAviOr may be slumping but Jaedong is stomping! Luckily I and all Zerg can still depend on that sick gosu gamer to take the title I think

One word: LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL!!!!!!!!!!!!

Im 1/4 today My liquibet is fucked

It would be better for my liquibet if Ruby wins

Kal win for 3/4 :D

Ya I think he should rest first and if that doesn't work, then perhaps do what Xellos and Much did.
o ya 2/4 tonight. Both votes I got tonight were from Anytime and bothed points lost from sAviOr.

savior is easy according to fbh, i doubt he is happy.. probably not even watching. hes new toy is mind.

both players standard so far. all buildings in main. oh kal gets a 2nd pylon before assimilator, so we'll be seeing so zealot play. ruby scouting after he starts his refinery. assimilator for kal now. i thought he might be going for 1 gate expo before gas, but i was wrong.

kal's zealot is unable to do any damage as ruby has 3 marines by the time he gets there (along with a nice depot rax "wall" beside his CC. fac and machineshop done for ruby. kal going with 1 gate range, expo started. his zealot dies after killing 1 marine. machineshop researching something, probably FD build for ruby, CC started for him as well. robotics for kal.
|
ruby pushing a bit with his marines/tanks, forces kal back a bit, then retreats his units. some mines going up at the blue area above the min only. kal's expo is up, he sneaks probe into ruby's main and he sees a 2nd fac coming. 2nd gate and robotics done for kal. shuttle out, robotics support, so we'll see some reaver drops. SCV gets into the main of kal and he'll see the robotics support as well.
|
holy shit, kal with great reaver shuttle micro !!! kills off 2 gollies and a tank.
|
wow that is some nice micro kal
edit: wtf. he loses his reaver and then someone ggs?
|
LMAO. That was possibly the worst handling of reaver harass I've ever seen by a progamer.

Pardon me? Haven't see that movie, maybe you could enlighten me about your point plz?

shuttle moving out toward ruby. probably 2 zealot and reaver. ruby has goliaths out already though, so he's probably safe. nice micro by kal takes out tank 2 gol losing only 1 zealot. not sure if the reaver got damaged at all. SCVs forced to maynard back to main. ruby started CC at min only (earlier than toss lol) but SCV is building the CC is dead. lol ruby's own mine kills 2 tanks and a gol. CC at min only is done. he gets 3 vult into kal's main and he sees 2 stargate carriers. still 2 fac only for ruby.
|
i seriously dont know who to cheer for. Coz they both defeated sAviOr. May the best player win.
|
Kal's micro was ok, but it was mainly ruby just playing like shit.
Thankfully I didn't go 0/4 though
|
kal moves down with something like 8 goons, min only floats, and he just continues down to ruby's nat which is defended by just 2 tanks and a few gol. drops his reaver simultaneously, and takes out defending gols while losing his shuttle+reaver. goons clear up the tanks and ruby GGs.
|
seems like pangshai was wrong, ruby aint the new mind =( Kal has been playing so good recently. Lets hope this MSL will still have the quality without savior/bisu/stork.
|
Ya, so pangshai, you were saying?

1/4 Atleast Bisu and Savior are out together

Get a chance and watch it. Cinderella Man is based on a true story. Russell Crowe was deemed too old to fight and was rusty like heck. People wrote him off and looked down on him in the start. So Sad. Just like how i feel for Savior now. But Russell Crowe come back and brings America to its feet. Hope Savior came do the same.

ty for the reports <3
cheers!!

There are two good things with todays results:
1. Now that Savior, Bisu and Stork are only in OSL they will most likely concentrate harder to give use good games in that tournament...
2. Anytime seems to also be able to bring his A-game from proleague to the big leagues.. his play vs Kal was extremely solid and vs Ruby he wasn't a bit stressed by the fact that terran had his 2nd multi up before he did, he just got his carrier/ground army combo and crushed ruby.
|
thank you for the reports as well. my first time to stay for the whole qualifications. Disappointed that sAviOr lost. But had great time spending in teamliquid.
|
I'll miss ruby throwing up everytime he miss micros somtime
|
sAviOr should need some counselling from some fellow teamliquid members. like to be advised to take more rest and stop bashing himself with over practising. I definitely think his over-practising took a toll on his body and mind. I bet his dreams has starcraft in them even when hs sleeps....just like me sometimes.

so bye Savior c u in offline quallifiers EDIT: wow, I actually gained 3 LB places with 2/4

It would be great it i can see Savior inn both the leagues...like how he was in participating in Shinhan OSL 3 and GomTv Season 1. So we get to see him playing frequent. But he just couldn't do it this time. Now that sAviOr is out, i guess its can be less stressing for him. In a way, he doesn't get shoulder heavy.

Savior... that was... so damn bad! :-( ZvT, ZvP... against new bloods, are you serious?! at least Bisu lost to Jaedong :/ Now I'm pissed Ruby didn't make it, I hope Kal will play well in the next stages. Both Bisu and sAviOr get 0-2, well thats just super! and Stork didn't even make it to Ro32 so... OSL is going to be nice in that aspect since they are all there.

savior needs a ums where there is no hive... Playing risky with Bisu is ok but with Ruby? just make tons of lurks and kick the shit out Ruby, you dead-head! ...

If it isn't for Jaedong, i would think this Msl is over already. I was rooting for savior. It's just sad to see the Maestro go down like this as 3nickma said. This Msl won't be as interesting as it should be to me to be honest.

Maybe sAviOr, Bisu and Stork will get the same offline quallifiers group next season :-P Where only one can make it. I can't believe they'll all have to take it! Thats either really hilarious or truly sad.

haha. that would be really funny. crazy as it may seem as they will be playing each game like the MSL FINAL. Can be Sad too...like how the strong teams are grouped together in the Soccer World Cup and only 2 teams would advance when we want 3 teams to advance.

this sucks... msl always was the less important of the 2 starleagues but now without all the top players it will feel almost meaningless :[

Wow, that Liquibet Matchup portrays what i have in mind too. that was one major upset with sAviOr pulling the most votes. If i betted heavily, i would be groaning..

Becoming like nada is actually pretty good Since Nada slumps and makes a comeback and wins something Most players when they slump, they slump forever...

i learnt that sAviOr should not underestimate the new players. just like how OOV should not have underestimated sAviOr when he sprung from no where and owned him 3 - 0.

Nada is quite talented. he comes then he goes and then he comes back. he is the one who can adapt to the new styles of playing. that is why his is still around in OSL and MSL at the same time.

Ra is the man. he is like no other. The one who can smile even after he loses. i remember he played sAviOr in the Blizzcon 07. Even after he lost 2 - 0, he smiled. Those 2 games he played really won applause from me. Though Ra lost, he gave the crowd a good thrill.
And i remember when sAviOr did a one hatchery build to defeat Stork in game 3 in last seasons MSL. In the back room, Ra was like laughing his heart out when he was chatting with sAviOr after the game about the strategy he used. I was already laughing my heart out when i saw sAviOr's one hatchery build, but when i saw how Ra laughed about it, it made my laughter grew even bigger. LOL.

this is anytime's msl. no one will stop him. he probably practices with jaedong a lot so he can potentially have just as strong a pvz by the end of msl.
|
this is not a boring MSL so far we have very good player : sea, mind, jaedong, anytime
kal and july can make good games if they are not in a bad day
|
Saviour getting "firebathero'd" is always amusing to watch... the guy hasnt been doing very well lately. : (
|
Eh, shouldn't you be telling sAviOr/Bisu, 'See you at Survivor'???
Surely they don't drop immediately into the offline quals.
|
I think I just lost interest in this MSL... I'm obviously forgetting a few other big names, but wtf no bisu and savior?!?! anyway, think I said this last season, but there's still the OSL, but if B and S keep playing like bs, that won't be worth watching either :|

Bisu had some nice moves vs Jaedong, I though he was gonna win till the end....

Guys you gotta stop saying Bisu is slumping, he aint even slumping, he just got outplayed by a better player OR screwed up in micro (see yarnc vs bisu game). I gotta admire jaedong for actually even beating bisu UPRIGHT IN zvp. Whereas for savior, ppl can definitely argue he is actually slumping, he should start considering going back to team B with Iris like xellos/much did.

*cries*
Just take a 1 month break from Starcraft, Maestro. Come back and own everyone.

Yeaaaa Anytime is BACK!! GO ANYTIME <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

Stop saying MSL is meaningless with Bisu/sAviOr eliminated. Face it, they're both on a steady decline, shadows of their former selves. I wouldn't be surprised if they (or well, at least sAviOr) fail to even qualify next season. The guard has been changed, get with the times.

I think that's a bit presumptuous to say the guard has changed already. Wait for them to go to the offlines, then I'll agree.

wtf SAVIOR!!! noooooooooooooooooooooooo
is this karma for making fun of bisu getting kicked???

Savior

Just what I predicted. Jaedong should dominate, but who knows.

So what if the MSL doesn't have Bisu and Savior. I want a Anytime Jaedong finals. If Kang Min shows promise, then ofc I have to pour my heart out to Kang Min too. He's just too great.
And GoRush. GL to the terrans too but hf on katrina guys... Ooooo man, I'm hoping by the round of 16, this MSL will look like a 2005 MSL. It very well could, minus Boxer and Midas
That would be a serious awesome for me. I won't be missing Savior or Bisu terribly much. Savior has been really on and off the last half year and I never liked Bisu.
And it seems the only real T win I've seen on Katrina is still Upmagic and Vulture dropping. I'm glad he's still around.
I think this MSL is gonna be awesome. But every MSL on paper looks so crazy T.T
|
NOOOOO NO SAVIOR AND BISU T_T
|
lol @ savior
|
What the fuck 0/4 fuck this shit fuck msl sAviOr's gonna take OSL instead.
|
i want bisu and savior to set up their own bo5 with some outside deal with kespa.
bigger than msl?
|
Well, now, so far, 2 terrans, 2 zergs and 2 protoss in group A, B and C respectively made it through.
That'll give some quite varied gameplay, and that's good.

Yeah, I was thinking the same, but I made predictions purely based on fanboyism @_@. Somehow my gut tells me that since Bisu didn't make it, Savior's gonna end up screwing up and not making it as well during possibly the ONE time that his arch-nemesis is already eliminated, thereby losing a critical chance for another MSL.
I hate myself now. Why did I have to say it.

during the selection ceremony he insulted fbh for not having enough skill to achieve a seeded position during GOMTV S3, and now he goes out 0-2 in the Ro32.

0/4 lol. Savior, what the fuck -_-

can't wait to see this month's PR... wtf savior T_T
|
savior's out but july is in o.o. 2/4..i got raped but looks like some of u got raped worse
|
|
I dont know why people are whining? Sure Bisu and savior is out but we still have: Mind Jeadong Anytime Xellos Nal_Ra Gorush Oov Nada July
It is a good mix between veterans and the newcomers. It is going to be an awsome MSL I hope Anytime takes it down!
|
lol all the X-generation bonjwa players (Bisu, Stork, Savior etc) are getting wiped out clean.
|
i hope jaedong wins.. so sad to see savior's sad face though....
|
wow! first bisu... now savior... Damn! Nice way to start the year.
|
I'm glad savior didn't make it. He does not deserve a chance at a msl title if he can't overcome bisu.
|
|
lol kal....
this is an awesome MSL so far, im assuming the people lakrismamma said have qualified, its almost all old school. i havent been keeping up with this round.
|
Did anybody else think Kal's micro against Ruby was AWESOME?
Reaver drop madness
|
#2 and #3 seeds are out... got fucked in the ass...
since everything is soooo unexpected...
TERRAN: GOOOOOOO NADA!!!!
PROTOSS: GOOOOOOOO NAL_RA!!!
ZERG: GOOOOOOOOO JAEDONG!!!

I agree, Nada should win this MSL!
poor savior, but somehow i think he didn't really care that much. obviously neither he nor bisu practiced very much. he lost against ruby and kal. yeah, kal isn't bad at all but zvp is savior strongest mu... same with bisu, who lost zvp... really strange...
|
Woah msl and osl start of so nice. Last season i watched finals and proleague only. But this time i'll try to watch osl & msl as much as possible again. Go Nada for MSL & GO Xellos or Sea for OSL!!
|
Kal is looking really strong this season, I wouldn't call it an upset if he won the MSL.

Bisu played amazing vs Jaedong, saying he didnt practice is a total cop out.

I dunno about that, things like this have happened plenty of times before, doesnt mean that they wont return to being great players.

Fuck Kal and fuck Ruby! They were too good. 8[ I wanted nobody to ever become as good as Savior was in his prime and now they are making him look like a Noob who can't multitask.
Somebody who plays as good as Savior shouldn't lose a game. Ever! =/ I demand new rules!
