Iris owning it up. Love to see him playing like this.

I'd be happy with Iris advancing. Effort (I think he's more of a lock against July than Iris is), Iris, Savior and Flash at Blizzcon would just be incredible.

Why is everyone so confused? They are TEAMMATES, if anyone knows effort's weaknesses, it would be Iris.



Exactly this. Not to mention Berserker is living up to his namesake and going apeshit.

I did not expect this. Maybe Effort is tired after all those games? Or perhaps it's like one of those inner team battles like ForGG vs Jaedong where the lesser player wins.

hahahahahahahaha is Flash really going to catch the luckiest break a gamer has caught in a long time???

Not saying it's a sure thing Flash beats Iris but given that it's all he has to play for and a BO5, he has to be considered a heavy favorite.

Effort and Savior were also heavy favorites over iris
Iris can pull out miracles against his team mates apparently so maybe he might be able to conjour up something against flash

Iris winning one more game would mean so much more than effort. Let's face it, effort is a fucking monster and will win many more titles and have many more chances at making a title. This is pretty much iris's last chance. After Shinhan 3/Daum he really fucking deserves another crack at a title.


Eh? SC2 is coming out shortly. At best, there is only 2 more years for pro SC1. There is going to be so much money in SC2, its going to be ridiculous.

Yeah and iris is actually at 62% winrate in 2009.... not as good as effort, but hardly a pushover

but I'd rather make excuses for effort

This is exactly what I was thinking. Totally finding an epic way to celebrate if he does indeed win. I may have liquibetted for Effort but I'm cheering for Iris.

I'd love to see him at Blizzcon. Effort will be raping face and winning titles for a long time to come I think.

OMG GG!

That first push was very good. Killing the entire expansion areas of drones and following up with good defense and thus delaying tech and then a nice contain.. Wicked game tbh, GG

Terrans are favored more in teammate vs teammate battles imo.
for example forGG vs jaedong

There is no evidence to support that statement. Forgg was playing out of his mind v everyone when he beat jaedong, he deserved to win that msl.
OMG you nasty gurl

Not the best example. More like ForGG just choked Jaedong with the map Line up more than him exploiting Jaedong's weaknesses. Also ForGG was, similar to Mind and Luxury when they won, destroying everything in that MSL. Apparently anyone who wins an MSL who isn't a Bonjwa or Bisu ends up sucking. :>

Effort seems to have trouble with Iris's crazy aggression and pushes. The maps aren't that bad.

SC2 wont be out for at least 6 months. Knowing Blizzard probably longer.

What are you talking about Yes SC2 is coming, but in all likelihood it won't be marketable as an esport product properly until the last expansion. SC will atleast live until then

it might be a practice issue

Effort has been pretty good with using his overlords / lings to scout in Proleague, but he's been caught off guard by a vulture drop and MnM push against Iris in GOM.
