way to completely ignore select's incredible micro and decision-making!


I just don't get why you can't complain about boring MMM-tactics AND appreciate selects play at the same time?

I mean, I think select is one of the very best terrans in the western hemisphere when it comes down to micro....but still I find his gamestyle/overall-concept very predictable and boring; why does everything has to be black and white? why must it always come to either be 100% in favour or 100% against a player? there are aspects I admire about select's play and aspects I don't like; same goes for pretty much every player; what's wrong with that?


if those games weren't interesting to you simply because they featured a bio ball (reading this post of yours i don't think that's the case for you, but certainly for others here) then you (using the term "you" loosely here!) are missing out on incredibly important aspects of this game and simply seeing 'well he made some marauders', that makes you a bad player and "you" should keep quiet!

I fail to see how me having a supposedly "Greater understanding" of the game would change my opinion of the games i saw, i think its an elitist argument on a base level and on a greater level its not really a counter at all to what im saying, its sitting in the camp of "well you just wouldnt understand, its a bit over your head". I have said again and again that just because i thought the game was boring doesnt mean intrinsically it was to anyone else, but im allowed to have my opinion regardless. I appreciate his micro and i think he deserved the victory, but so far as being a spectator is concerned if the whole tournament was like that then id be sorely dissapointed.


i don't understand how you can completely seperate yourself into two entities like that. the 'spectator' who is easily bored by seeing the same units over and over, and the 'player' who appreciates the tremendous display of skill that was select vs nony. i don't understand how ANY competitive player can be bored of a sc2 match simply because he's seen marauders before.

Again you can have that opinion all you want, but if feels like you're trying to bash people over the head with it. You've had a ton of posts in the last few pages complaining about it.

I think i made two posts about how it was boring and the rest are trying to defend myself from people who seem to assume that because i said it was boring i have a lesser understanding of the game, regardless im done now, but i felt the need to defend myself from the people who called me out on it.

KK v Select should be a crazy good matchup.


Selects looks shamelessly fresh considering how much he has played.

Schedule? Now you're just being ridiculous

Anyone want to take a guess (or a bet/raffle) on the exact time the IdrA vs. ____ Grand Finals will start, assuming commercial and food breaks?


I'll guess about 6:45 DC time

Protoss 'core' units do pretty well against MM, man. Forcefields are super powerful.

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


You are giving alot of people on here so little credit. I think most can see Select's incredible ability, its just a minority that find it boring.


as a moderator and all-around starcraft all-star it is my job to make broad, sweeping generalizations about the tiny little villagers down below my mountain fortress & dole out justice accordingly


Oh i did not realise you were an all-star! Well just be careful with those lightening bolts you're chucking down mount olympus because there are many righteous beings amongst the wicked
