why is the 3rd place matchup only the best of 5? shouldnt it be the same as the finals? i mean it is 450 bucks on the line with the loser going away empty handed.

GG IdrA, really well played. I thought it was going to be alot closer. But IdrA is just a damn solid player. Didn't expect him to win game 2 at all, but he pulled through. Looking forward to the finals, though I doubt WhiteRa will have anything to put up.

Don't underestimate White-Ra please, if he gave Sen a run for his money, I think he's capable of taking games off Idra.

I don't doubt he can take games, but I highly doubt it will be close in a bo7. Don't get me wrong, I wan't the final to go all the way. More fun for us spectators. Will be interesting to se if either player diverge from "standard" play. Not that I have watched a TON of games with then, but they both strike me as solid standard players, rarely doing the unexpected. But sure hoping for some funky builds.

Nony had a really bad day and it also seems he was taken aback a bit by Idras consistency and maybe some nerves; and he also stated that he havent been able to practice vs Zerg-players at Idras lvl. Im fully confident that Nony did not play at his best and will remedy that in the thirdplace-game.

I dont think whitera should have these problems. He wont be suprised by Idra going massive macro into massive hydra, and the newly found flexibility in Idras play. He wont be taken aback by the moment, whitera have been in intense situations like this many times before, he has played alot of asians, not least Sen just the other day. So whitera wont be a pushover. But he has to be at the top of his game. If he could push Sen to a 2:3, he can do the same with Idra.

The finals will be absolutely Epic.

Next HDH invitational I really hope they invite some Koreans though, because Im sure theyd be more than willing to play; and it would just be awesome.

It would be interesting if idra had some lag during playing, since he is in korea - right?
Does Battleping work for korea? (from korea to US).

Couldn't agree more if someone loses first 2 matches he is virtually out of competition
And further it would be nice to see Nony and TLO duke out in best of 7

Hope Hd and Husky make the necessary changes

Have you guys seen Ace play? Damn that protoss is so amazing. Whitera's win vs sen was really boring, and I really dislike seeing whitera in action. When Sen got his base up and going and the game evolved a bit, I did not really see Whitera stand much of a chance.

Ace on the other hand is so damn good and fun to watch. It's like he breaths protoss, you feel empowered watching him. He wants the game to evolve, unlike these 4-5 gaters that is zzzzz.

Yeah that's a great feat and all, but man this tournament feels like it's been going on for a long time lol. How many patches has it been going on? I think that's what really contributes to the huge number of views and posts in the thread (not bashing, because the matches indeed have been some of the BEST so far in SC2!).

Are we going to see some kind of replay pack from this tournament? I know there are youtube channels, which i love, but i'd like to see some actual game replay to check build orders and stuff...

Two gate zealots seem to demolish FE zergs, why dont we see more of it?

Because they don't if played correctly by Zerg. One very viable counter to 2 gate push is actually a 14 hatch 13 pool opener.

They will probably release a pack after the whole tournament is over

Atleast we hope so.

That's pretty funny the Chinese audiences blame ACE some thing like he just can do early cheeses etc

@ Prodtoss
What does the Chinese audiences say about Zergplayers, who's the top 3?^^
Would like to down some replays, but can't hardly find any idra reps and don't know zergs of equal skill.
