Because they produce awesome matches? That Desert Oasis match between Jinro and Socke was epic. And I think you'd have a few Protoss saying that Scrap is as tough for them as Kulas is for Zerg. MLG is doing a great job picking the right series to broadcast today!

It's not like just anybody can be successful with that strategy. It takes really good blink micro, and Nazgul definitely had it.

Gz for natzgul abusing blink stalkers, and I seriously mean it. I don't know if you can compare it to something like marine vs lurker micro in broodwar but it was amazing to watch.

Tyler/Nony, Nazgul, Socke and now Huk - makes me a happy protoss-nerd

He isn't out completely yet.
But Nazgul my man! I know he did 4gate blink stalkers every game but who cares, he took down the gracken with minimal playing time.

Yes, you can also blink into the blocked 3rd.

Yeah, don't you know, everyone on TeamLiquid is pro at SC2 and could easily beat Idra using the same strategy.
Idra got outplayed. He likes to play macro heavy economy based Zerg and Nazgul punished him for it.

would be so cool if the 2 dutchmen would both knock out 2 heavyweight players :D
|
Winner of Ret vs Huk may will face Jinro next if he passes.
|
IdrA should have pulled a Day[9] and punched his keyboard as hard as he could.

And ss didn't win idra his win? Do you actually play on Kulas now that it is no longer a ladder map? I don't, but it was in the map pool, idra has one vote down I believe. idra picked ss in the same way that it is very zerg friendly, just like nazgul picked his to be friendly to his strat Try downvoting every map that is extremely unfair to zerg with 1 veto... Delta, LT, Kulas, Steppes. The 1 veto system is kinda lame (I think its 1), you can't possibly eliminate every bad map for zerg, but you can eliminate every zerg favored map (Scrap). (Blistering might seem zerg favored after watching Sen)

Amazing how like 20 pages of comments were created with just that one series O_o
Though it was the same build 3 games in a row and I don't think I like how you can blink up in Kulas with control of the tower but it was still very well planned by Nazgul, he knew IdrA was better then him so he prepared a set strategy with maps that complimented his build. It's how you beat an opponent better then you so people need to stop calling Naz a noob or blaming map imba. He just prepared so well and with the help of IdrA's mishaps he was able to take the series.
Maybe it wasn't as fun as watching Jinro play Sock but it was impressive to see Nazgul's micro and his ability to effectively use the same build 3 games in a row.

I really want to see some TLO zerg action, I think there is a lot that could be learned from whatever he cooks up.

He did, Nazgul just had excellent positioning and blink micro. If you notice in games 1 and 2, he always tried to back his stalkers into a corner or choke so that the lings could not get a surround. There were never more than like 12 lings attacking at a time. Excellent micro by Nazgul.

Wow looks like HuK vs Ret next!!!
