Hey calm down and read this interview with TLO. http://www.teamliquid.net/forum/viewmessage.php?topic_id=182109 | ||

He's practicing using random, he's in a tournament playing vT he can choose whichever is his favourite matchup and play it. He didn't "switch to terran" he likes TvT on top of that, why would you care if he switched to terran. He's clearly still able to compete with top players. Honestly , why do you care? It's not like he went into the venue and just punched someone in the face. | ||

I'm just picking random clues from the stream, but that's what it looked like to me... I'm pretty sure they are having to shorten things because it's got so late, this is supposed to be a one day LAN and it's already 11:15pm here. They've been going for almost 12 hours now, rather unfortunate that they are short on time but I think it's better to have a shorter series than having it all drag out to like 1am or something. I'd imagine any live audience has been thinning out as well. | ||

I don't mind that much, but whoever won (sjow now) will be a little less exhausted in the grand finals than he would normally be if the tournament format was respected. You don't generally change those things at this point. =/ Ah well, gogo TLO. | ||

He played 1 game R (got T anyway) The shortening makes sense, bo5 TvT with mostly go to the final game between good players = 2hours 30 ish. Bo7 TvT = 3hours ish. Be going on towards 2am and I'm pretty sure all admins/players/fans really just want to go home now. I wouldn't be suprised to see the final cut short, (Only £250 difference) to a bo3. But i've got all streams on mute (FA cup highlights ftw :D) so dno whats being said | ||
