I agree with that they should send worser players, but not out of some idea for fairness or saving face, but because Lecaf can use the depth that MBC and CJ has, exposure is good for the young. That said, I guess ACE's potential to randomly pull out 3-0 wins makes teams wary of looking too dumb

Let's see how Ace's 2v2 holds up.
|
purple and orange are ACE right?
|
|
|
...
|
NO ACE
close though
white and red both had no peons at the end of the game
|
so uh..... what happened?
|
Man, I'd like to see backho paired with a better teammate sometime. It seemed like tosky almost cost them the game a couple times there.
Shame we don't get to see Daezang play.

Is this already friggin over?

rage kills a few drones early
gate gate gate pool hatch core double sunken spire goons zealots zerglings muta
big battle, ACE doesn't have range yet and gets pushed back, range kicks in and they push forwards
clon and lecaf protoss expand
clon breaks sunkens with mutas and lings shred, drones run to protoss
muta/goon shreds clon, then expo, clon out
rage sends infinite goons to toss, denied by probes / drones / goons on ramp
army comes back from shredding clon and denies rage's army
rage gg's out

In broodwar you should absolutely send your best players every time because even the weakest pros are still strong enough to win.
Ace also 3-0ed some strong teams this season.
So ya you're full of shit

Nuuuu, was the 3:0 by ACE earlier in the season a fluke? It can't beeee *trails off*
|
These reports really make me want to watch these games!!! And btw, Meriadokk, the song they play after gg is "for all these times" by Lostprophets. Hope it's the one you were talking about.

Personally, I would have thought Coaches would take ACE as an opportunity to play a strong first three player lineup, with a newer/weaker/experimental fourth. Neverthless, ACE's 3:0 of MBC shows even a strong lineup isn't failsafe.
