Lol what has July done recently to make 80% of Team Liquid pick him over someone who was just in the final 4?

Do people hate HongUn that much for whatever reason or does nobody pay attention?

TL, myself and most non-Koreans it seems, vote heavily based on personality and if someone is a character or not.

Someone who is relatively "boring" usually has to make some crazy plays (i.e. sC) to be brought into the personal preferences fold of TL.


I voted for July just because I'm a fan. His aggressive play is very enjoying and he never has dull games.

One thing about Liquibet; it's been going on for a while, and most of us have no chance in hell of winning. I've long since lost any hope of a decent finish, so fuck objectivity, I'm voting for NaDa.

It wouldn't surprise me if there were quite a few other people who've given up on trying and just resorted to fanboy votes as well.

LMAO love how TL puts HuK miles ahead of nada. I bet if they could all re-bet now they'd think otherwise

good to see the difference in opinion - espcially with nestea 0_o

80% of people picking July does not mean that people on average think that July has an 80% chance of winning. People seem to conflate these two. I picked July, but think it's rather close. Bomber should have 100% of people picking him, because he's just more likely to win, not because he's certain to win.

Nada's gonna roll huk hardddddd

even before 1-1-1, i've seen huk lose HARD to nada on his stream... not happening, ever.


Especially since huk has to deal with his ultimate rival in the same house >:C

Ever since I joined TL, I've just been fanboy voting, blind faith ftw!

I just vote for the better player, and WHO should win. People are like Leenock is good in ZvT and Marineking is barely winning, but I voted Marineking still.

Voted:
Genius - just because he favors PvT the most, virus lost to Inca in May as well. There's always 4 gate.
TOP - this was 50/50 for me but I like TOP more and he's been more consistent and Zenio seems like he can't make it past Ro16.
Bomber - Ok, its TvT and its Bomber, bomber almost makes MVP look like a noobie in this match-up.
MMA - tip top TvTer and if Noblesse didn't screw up polt probably wouldn't of advanced, I cheered for polt in the Super Tournament but I think MMA is superior now, (polt never makes it past Ro16)
July - HongUn's vs Zerg games are always sloppy! I honestly don't know how he advances so far each time, oh wait I know its because he gets supernova in his group each GSL group stage.
Puzzle - Ryung is probably the SlayerS terran most likely to 1/1/1 in a game, Puzzle used to stream on TL for over 20 hours a day it seemed like, hard work does pay off. I dunno what's up with his HT control vs emp these days though.
NADA - Nada is Nada and I'm Bias, no just kidding they know each others style real well, and I think Nada can adapt more quickly.
MVP - This guy makes Nestea look Mortal, and to top it off he's Nestea's weakest match-up and the only opponent Nestea has a losing record to (Terran Wise)
We got them GOM TvT's and them mlGG's

Well, sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose to HongUn. The way of the world.

Look, I know it looks like HongUn is way better than July right now. And he probably is. But do *not* put it past him to HongUn shit up: that is, beat MC and/or lose to July.

HongUn never makes sense.

lol all this shows is that the majority of people that vote on Liquibets vote on who they'd rather win versus who they think will actually win. The GOMTV poll is much closer to how the odds should actually look.

Especially in regards to 3 match ups. Hongun vs July, Nada vs Huk and Nestea vs MVP.

The liquibet odds are so off regarding these three its actually quite humorous.

Which is a shame because MVP is somewhat overshadowed or accompanied by other good T's. Whereas NesTea stands alone on his throne. I guess Liquibet is like 60/40 heart/brain.

Yikes, July is doing awful lately, I dunno why everybody thinks he has his previous form, especially with HongUn doing so well.
