He was straight up tackling FOUR colossi backed by mass gate armies with nothing but MMM and actually breaking even. Do you have any idea how ridic hard that is? Colossi are THE counter to bio, and Nony had 4 of them. Versus any lesser player that would have been a complete slaughter. Instead, Select's insane micro, targetting, and use of stim/healing/pickup with medivacs allowed him to wipe out all the colossi and almost all the gate units. Respect Select. His skills are insane. Yeah people really need to give credit here.
Select's battle micro was really impressive, controlling multiple groups to pick off colossi and cripple Nony, and get huge value out of every unit during the whole series.
If you think T is going MMM 1a here you're insane.

Sen lost to Select in a BO3. I think he could possibly beat Idra. Really? Hmm yeah that spells trouble for Idra. I think Sen is better than Idra. Tho this is based of Play of Sen i saw a couple months ago. Not sure if Idra has pasted Sen..probably not. Sen's style is very different than Idra's so it's hard to compare the two. Sen is more harass oriented while Idra is more defensive and macro oriented You need to watch Sen stream. Sen's marco is as good as Idra. He beat Silver and Painuser like beating Silver players and beat Idra 2 games in a row...all that in 2 hours of his stream Anyone have a link to his Stream? Sen was my favorite Zerg, before Husky casted that series of Fruitdealer crushing Maka in a B07 series. Lol i remember in a Europe vs Asia Showmatch Sen and the Most epic comeback vs TLO on Scrap.
It appears in the TL stream list when it's on.

Maybe because in GSL the guy only have to play one BO3 or BO5 each day.... and not play games all day like in mlg so get real...

Why are people upset that Select played out the ideal composition against Nony's?
Do you expect him to randomly make stuff to be cute?
Select played straight up and didn't try to rely on tricks to win, and that's 100% respectable. because watching stimrauders rape everything is boring
If stimrauders are raping everything, it's just as much Tyler/Nony's fault for making units that get raped by them, since I can't help but think that SeleCT's choice of unit composition may have had *some* relation to the units T/N/Mr Wasieleski was chosing to build.
Oh wait, I'm forgetting the fact that to build Rays that have recently been buffed against tier 1, Protoss need to build a factory, I mean Lair, I mean... oh.

Man MLG giving breaks for losers bracket? :D Being in the pro section and gonna be broadcasted helps when asking for a break, there aren't 300 other games that need to be played, the amateur halo bracket is such a grind it's ridiculous non-stop games while in loser's until you get knocked out.. get so hungry/tired

yea as it stands now its not exciting if huk goes to the finals as he needs to win 4 games without losing twice. pretty hard imo
winner of kiwi/select has the better chance

Sen is a featured streamer, so when he's on, you can see on the right hand sidebar.

Just found out the Tekken 6 stream is really entertaining! No need to watch commercials when you can watch Tekken 6, right?

you guys are total chumps, way to look at the unit composition and decide thats the entirety of what's going on in the match
hurp durp mmm is boring if u do it every game
way to completely ignore select's incredible micro and decision-making! please refrain from making comments if you don't know what the fuck you're talking about. i realize that applies to 99% of you and there's no way i can enforce it, but i'll sure as hell try

Good Terran execution isn't as exciting or fun to watch as Zerg or Protoss. I don't understand this. How is stim kiting boring to watch? They're constantly balancing DPS versus survivability when doing this, until the medivacs are out. Tyler got cute with too many Phoenixes and just had a smaller army.
It's probably a psychological thing. When you see similar micro in broodwar with medic/marine against lurkers everyone gets a nerdgasm. That's because of how frail m&m is against lurkers without micro. However, the mentality of 'mauraders are OP' just piss people off when they see them microed the same way.
