She traveled from Ontario to Las Vegas while Demuslim only came from Arizona (at least I think he'd been at the EG house)
everyone deals with traveling and jet lag differently its impossible to arbitrarily say whos more or less tired

Are you seriously suggesting that the simple solution to jet lag for busy pro gamers is to get up during the night and sleep during the day for a week before every event involving oversea travel? Furthermore, commitments falling within 5 days of each other aren't the exception for these guys. They're the norm. IPL4 ended late night Sunday. At which point, if I've got the timing right, Polt, Oz and Parting had around 48 hours before their next Code S ro32 game (at 6:10pm KST, Wed, losing 17 hours time difference). In which 48 hours getting from Las Vegas, Nevada to Soeul, Korea would figure centrally.
In this sort of context, where exactly does resting up for a week figure?

thats ignoring online events, loss revenue since noones gonan watch your stream so late and barely getting team practice in

Of course Hindsight is 20/20 as Demuslim is now being painfully reminded of. He did a gentlemanly offer, by allowing a re-game when he had 100% rightfully earned his win, so there is no need to bring it up negatively now. Who knows, he may have lost 2-1 regardless, I'm just looking forward to watching the games. Does anyone know if they released any replays?

One will not experience jet lag from traveling to Nevada from Arizona.

It's her friend (who is high GM). She says she occasionally plays that account but it's not likely her, especially since she said she was going to the hospital.

How you compensate in my experience is you slowly change over. You don't immediately sleep the whole day, five days before. You go to sleep one hour earlier each night or so depending what your body needs. I have traveled like this before and you have to find whatever works for you. Point being pro gamers who travel should find a way to get themselves well rested before a tournament (unless like I said before they are traveling to another tournament in less than a week, that seems really hard/impossible to do).
Also I've never heard Polt, Oz or Parting blaming losses on being tired.

thats cause they rarely lose and when they do its to Koreans
NesTea is always saying that he has extremem problems falling asleep when travelling outside Korea

(edit: addressed to Chytilova)
Well, if you've got the solution to jet lag, then you apparently know something that the smartest business people and the highest paid athletic doctors in the world seemingly have yet to figure out. Nestea was practically falling asleep at his desk, in his final matches at IPL4. And I don't think that's because he was stupid about preparing for the match, or doesn't understand how international travel works.
But back to Scarlett: pretty cool that we got an inadvertent Scarlett game streamed there. The first since IPL4, I guess. Wish I'd caught it! I'm just a bit more inclined to watch NA GMs laddering, given the remote possibility that Scarlett might pop up here and there.

I guess I never got bad jet lag and when I did get it, I could easily get around it by getting ready for traveling. I guess I'm different than most.
Back to Scarlett: I could try to find it in Idra's VODs if you want! :D

Saw that game on Idras stream too. Dunno what Idra was thinking just skipping baneling nest. It was lings vs ling/bling from Scarlett.
Maybe he is tired streaming 10 hours straight.
But anyways Scarlett was looking good from what I saw. Even going 100% safe win with building roaches even though she was way way ahead after that 1st exchange with blings.

Sick win ratio. I seen some of you replays. And you remind me very much of Stephano. Is he a player you are being influenced by?

Scarlett said she watched a lot of Stephano and Nerchio vods which she learned from and was influenced a lot by
