when has MC ever called any protoss unit imba? Every other unit in the game yes, Protoss units no.


he does it all the time.. "stalker, imba".. "blink , imba" "forcefieldu, imba!"

I do love the feel of Homestory and how it goes back to the days just getting people round to the house for a tournament. But I still think we should stick with keeping eSports looking professional in its own right and NOT have casters drinking at the casting table. Don't agree with alcohol being on their desk and them being drunk while casting. Took away a bit from certain casts, sure its great fun for them but some of the casting was poor. On the other hand some of the casting was amazing MC and MKP and other casting combinations, but sometimes they just went too far in my opinion. FYI im not saying they shouldnt be allowed a drink at the bar, of course they can just that if you are casting dont be drunk and do not drink while casting, think it makes esports look a bit less serious, love the story behind this tournament and how take has brought it through, like esports should be run by gamers for gamers <3

He did last year with the infamous "penix imba" comments, was quite funny. I believe at least one of the times was at IEM3 on stage. Could be wrong my memory is a bit fuzzy, I just know it was at one of the big tournies.


It was @NASL S1 finals after his games against SeleCT I think?

Watched HSCIV, and I loved every minute of it.

I don't think you can really classify anyone as being a loser.

The Cloud interview is I think one of the best ever done. So much insight from the broodwar perspective, so honest, open and direct. And good questions.

It's about the caster / player controversy from some time ago.

HOWEVER, the nation had to suffer the shame of having a Barcraft broadcast from an Irish pub.

Having a barcraft is winning. Period. There never is shame involved in having a barcraft.
All is fair in love and war. Starcraft is both.

I would just like to add, since there is no mention at all about good manner MKP asking for re-game when his game vs Violet disconnected. Doesn't matter what the players' positions were when the dc happened, that coming from a pro is very respectable.

Great write up overall! Awesome tournament, truly fun to watch. I think the small feeling isn't quite hitting the proverbial nail, I believe more important is that you can tell the players are truly enjoying themselves.

LOSER=Blizzard: LAN MODE.
QFT!

I'm a bit perturbed by the fact that you argue NA is treading water when I could easily argue NA was not truly represented by our best.
P.S. I'm nub. If you'd like you can follow me @xthurst but its not worth it ill be honest
