So happy that Boxer won! What a legend he is. He's going to need to fix his macro though if he wants to remain at the absolute top in the future.

I see sc1 scandal all over again in sc2. Someone was speaking about staging games so boxer would move forward to boost ratings and i thought its retarded, but now it looks more and more legit

If you disagree explain why instead of playing normal solid game that is proven to be a winning strategy against boxer (see game1), he switches for something completly random and makes silver league mistakes. But i am sure even silver leaguers would make a viking against banshee after seeing same build over and over again

it's called pressure ever heard of it?

Nah, NesTea will build some infestors and Foxer can't spread marines.


Have you actually watched any of the games?

Why in gods name would Nada throw a game vs Boxer?

He is very well respected in the community, very well mannered and he is an icon for gamers - and he knows it. he isnt going to through a game, ESPECIALLY not vs Boxer.

To make such claims against such a legend, you need more than a few mistakes in a game or 2.

They must of paid off NaDa to throw the game! Next they are going to have to break NesTea's fingers for boxer to have even a slight chance since their is no way he could do it on his own. That must be the only explanation, because their is no way boxer could possibly do it on his own...

Boxer vs Nada was super entertaining. My fav. tvt yet. I think the play is the best i've seen? Atleast the whole spectacle of it was brilliant if that's not true.

I don't know how closely you guys watched these games but man I'm not sure anyone else is up to the level of nada and boxer. I no other match (and i've watched them all) was it so blatantly apparent that with one misclick or mis-move the game would be over.

To the person that said that the match was rigged to get ratings...re-watch them. Nada makes logical decisions every time. Boxer almost beats nada the first game and that was a macro vs macro battle. Nada makes the decision that crap, this guy can beat my macro so I better try something else. He also always stops the banshee and does logical steps to defeat it. In the final match I really liked the ghost idea for anti-banshee play. Very logical and unexpected, completely shut down banshee play. Boxer beat him fair and square. I was a little afriad of the thrown games idea as well.

If Boxer has bad macro but continues to win, maybe our definition of bad macro is fundamentally wrong?

I really liked boxers stim timing when NaDa was dropping his first nuke. And the game on Caverns, it really shows something that boxer was talking about, with less demand on mechanics, players can do super decision making and execute different tactics to gain an upper hand in the match

I just watched today's games....

NaDa is definitely a top tier Terran, but Boxer is just too good. What more can I say? insane harass, insane defense, insane attacks & pushes. I think sc2's gameplay suits very well some player's styles, just like boxer's: the man doesn't have 400 apm but the mechanics of the game still allow him to pull off tight strats and extreme tactics.

Honestly my knee-jerk reaction to NaDa's play was to think about matchfixing, but there's no way with his reputation he's going to endanger his career.

Now that APM isn't the only factor Nada's looking at little weak. Epic games from both players, though. I liked Nada's strat in game 4, although I don't think he was aggressive enough.

Don't any of you think that if they wanted ratings they just wouldn't have put Nada and Boxer in the same bracket until the finals?

To suggest that this series was fixed is just absurd. Both players put forward excellent games, and most games were close enough to come down to one crucial decision that could have gone either way. Just because Nada is known as a macro player and didn't do the exact same econ build every match against a player known for wild strategies doesn't mean it was fixed.
