Lol demuslim is such a baller, saying stuff like "Battlecruisers absolutely RAPES hydras" in the event like this.
I wish i could've seen other guys face when he said that :D

Couldn't they have told TLO to smile when they showed the player sheet thing? XD

They were like "Hooray! It's TLO!"

The fact I believe Madfrog was the wrong choice for such an important showmatch doesn't mean I wasn't cheering for TLO by any means. Again, why picking Madfrog over Dimaga or any real top zerg player?


Because it's a Blizzard showmatch, the purpose of which is to draw attention to the event and the game and Madfrog is one of the most well known and well liked players in Blizzard game history.

It's similar to when glhf.it arranged an invitational tournament and invited you on the basis of your nationality, when there were clearly other better, more deserving players around. Of course, you weren't complaining in that instance.


probably gonna need some ice for that burn

but seriously it's a warcraft 3 tournament and what better way to celebrate the game then to pit the legend madfrog against TLO.

Madfrog just started playing beta at phase 2.. he hasnt been around since the very first patch like TLO or Dimaga.. yet he was still #1 on the Euro ladder at the end. Give him afew more weeks to catch up with experience like the rest of the players have, and he'll be dominating like he always does soon.

Madfrog said he started playign a few weeks after beta came out.
He just felt like he was good enough to announce his presence in phase 2

Definitely became a huge MadFrog fan here. His game on Delta Quadrant was absolutely unreal. I coulda sworn you cant do what he did without dying immediately but he proved me wrong. Although I have an admittedly limited understanding of WC3 (aka I've played like 10 games), it doesn't seem to be very economy oriented. But Madfrog just takes like 6 bases like it was nothing which seems especially weird for a WC3 player.

After watching the bo5 series, I retract my previous statement about TLO being the better player at the moment. FroG is better, TLO won purely by his race choice and map imbalance.

FroG made some stupid choices in the first series but still managed to take a game off TLO purely by outplaying him. He outplays him in multiple games in the second series but still gets gibbed by how ridiculously unfair LT and Kulas are not to mention bad luck on starting positions.

Mech solves, spam thors and press E for victory.

How do you not give madfrog credits for his games ? He played extremely well.
Also when madfrog was terran he used to be #1 pointswise in beta with the nick UnknownArt right ?

I think in a few patches madfrog will be near the very top in sc2. His game 4 in the 2nd showmatch was super awesome. Tlo had no chance in that game whatsoever. Wich is really rare in that matchup. Ok Tlo messed up a bit with his tricky expo but still awesome awesome game.

Hold up let me get my zerg tear collection equipment out.

Before War3 MaDFroG was a very strong BW player as well. Also he introduced a very economy oriented style to the otherwise more aggressive or tech oriented play of the undead race. So he's not as far out of his depth as you might think.
