Uh.... No? Did you see Select get raped in the 2nd to last game by Kiwi attacking once with a death ball? Terran loses that fight which is probably why Select is being so aggressive so it doesn't get to that point. I mean Select had a 3rd base up for like 6+ minutes before Kiwi's 2 base push and still got rolled.

Really hope for Select vs Idra, not because I dont like Huk, but simply because Select's TvZ is pure mech and is totally awesome, while its not Huks strongest matchup (as we could see earlier)

will finals be Bo3 or Bo5?

Select is such a hero OMG rly, big respect to the guy !

ghost when the opponent doesnt have any templars or immortal ??
its a LOT of gas for not much One immortal had 21 kills, another one had like 12 kills. Not because theyre so strong, they were simply more in the back and hard to reach, a emp wouldnt have changed much. Were talking about 300/250 to ''maybe'' help kill 2 units. To me ghosts are just like templars, sure they are both ''the best'' unit in PvT, but they reprensent such a big investment that you cant just get them that easily in a game where every unit counts. What?? What do you mean only kill 2 units? Well placed EMP take shield and energy away. The faster the stalkers at the front fall the faster you can deal with the immortal and no energy is no FF which would make sentries a pile of trash. Maybe you can only kill 2 units because you emp some standing alone immortal. It takes away 100 shield, over stalkers and zealot that is really not much for the investment. (for the price of that ghost, he can have 3-4 more stalkers, which is way more hp then what your emp will have done). Also, I think a big reason why Select doesnt go ghost is because he doesnt usualllly go for straight upfront engagement, and splitting ghosts with every little forces he sends would be useless. He needs all the money he can get so that his main force that goes against the protoss army is as big as possible (since its usually split in half because of drops on the side)
Do you people not see the forcefields that cut up the army and prevent Select from being able to stimkite towards the colossi to pick them off properly?
Depriving Kiwi of his ability to forcefield for a confrontation is absolutely massive. The damage the EMP deals out only makes it more worthwhile.

Im just blown away continually by the lack of HT's against select, he goes bio then ONLY bio from there on out.

Never seen SeleCT play before, damn. He is soo good. Crazy stamina to play so much and keep his play crisp. Was he this good in BW? He didn't play BW, he was a Dawn of war player. That's how sick this guy is. A dual WCG champion at DoW I believe. The guy is legit.
If this is true, this guy has some insane raw talent. SC2 is still a new game too, if Select stays active. Will be looking for him to be seriously dominant.

I would also like to note that I believe that Day9 + Wheat is the best commenter duo in starcraft 2 currently. Tasteless + Artosis is up there, but Day9 + Wheat just complement each other so well.
Thank you much Day and Wheat for providing such sick good commentary. Agreed. Wheat doesn't have the analysis of Day9, but the way he so appropriately puts in questions that are actually relevant to what's going on screen to be answered by Day9 is just too suave.
Exactly. I think that too much analytical casting(such as artosis + tasteless) actually devalues the experience. Wheat knows just enough to ask the questions and give some play by play while Day gives the analysis of the play.

No it doesn't, ff and cut that army in half. Dispatch 1 half then the other.

With the exception of IdrA and Select, Protoss had a pretty good showing.

That was after Kiwi baited him into the money forcefields between his third and natural ramp.

I wish I didn't feel jipped for paying $10. I really want to support MLG and eSports, but somebody screwed the pooch on the in-game quality for a 2.2mbps stream. I admit, the HD out-of-game stuff is better than before, and the interviews off-set the nauseating number of commercials. Nonetheless, I paid for higher quality games more than higher quality IdrA furrowing his brow.
The games are amazing though, but that's the players -- not MLG.

I missed Idra vs Huk, is there anyway i can watch it? I know this has probably been already posted but this post is already 237 pages long!
Thanks If you wanna see good games dont watch it. HuK not even close to IdrA's level. I would suggest you watch IdrA vs qxc those games were amazing!
Huk's got some pretty robotic play as well. When a robot meets master robot, master robot dismantles the little robot. Kiwikaki would stand a better chance pvz, tbh.
