Its like saying this: Since Tester lost to a semi-unknown 2-0 after HopeTorture 2-0, he must be a terrible player. there is no other explanation. He is not having a bad month or week or anything, he's just a bad player. | ||

They f-ed up with the live stream and are now showing us what they recorded, but couldn't stream at the time of recording due to technical issues). You do realize that by guessing randomly you have a 33% chance of guessing the right result. This has been explained 2 times on every page, but since some people are too stupid to read some people saw practice games and mistaked them for tournament games. | ||

Obviously your friend was drugged and is being shown pre-recorded reality by Bobby Kotick's army of bloodthirsty imps. | ||

TLO lives in korea and has access to top tier skill, but still chokes in tourneys  TLO played offrace 2 mirrormatches in a row against two very very good zergs. You cant expect him to beat sen with his own weapons. And yes, i know TLO played zerg during beta month ago and he wasnt bad. But playing your race, after weeks of fulltime training with ogs in their teamhouse and serious gsl experience is something different then "Oh, i liked zerg back then during beta. Lets play it for a few days to get used to some timings". Picking Zerg made 90% if his practice obsolete, especially in ZvZ. On the other hand, he wasnt forced to pick zerg, so... | ||

He knew he couldn't let IdrA get his macro up in his MLG match and did some crazy harass and creative warp prism play to combat that. It almost worked. He used hallucinated phoenixes twice to great effect as well. HuK has better fundamentals but he's willing to get more creative and obviously wants to very much, so I can't really say if Kiwi is or ever will be a better player but if they both went to Korea, I think they'd make a pretty big splash. The Protoss scene is pretty wide open. | ||

Idra was far ahead of the competition in MLG DC, I thought that was pretty obvious.. Doesn't mean others are bad, just means Idra has the experience + his practice in Korea.. Fine, going to losers bracket. He was dominate, but it was not a steamrolling. His opponents until select, who was very tired, at the end gave him a reasonable fight, at least more then he had in the GSL RO64. | ||

MLG DC >>>>>>>>>>>>> GSL ro64 except for like 4 games. I mean seriously there were some embarrassingly bad matches @ gsl. Idra for example just flattened his opponent. Just wrecked. First of all, you're comparing all of MLG DC (ie presumably the semis/ finals) to the Ro64 GSL? How does that even make sense? And honestly even then, MLG DC was mediocre level of play from everyone but Select. | ||
