I dont think Day[9] needs to be so heavy on iNcontrol for his strat choices.
I think he played game 1 straight up and saw he was playing someone who he felt was less skilled so he didnt need to play drawn out games.

Sorcery has yet to show up and has officially been replaced by VT|Spades.

Well they tell me i replace, make me wait 3 hours, then sorcery shows up randomly so they let him back in. I'm not mad at sorcery, i just think this is stupid from an administration standpoint.


Lets clarify this.

Sorcery was the original player that qualified for the final sixteen. He mistakenly assumed the bracket times were 100% accurate and had not received our emails stating otherwise. Spades was fortunately granted the opportunity to play in Sorcery's place because we had not heard from Sorcery for a few hours, but before the match between Spades and PainUser was to take place, Sorcery showed up.

The end.


I told you guys I didnt want to end up waiting hours for him to show up last minute. Admin said "DONT WORRY SPADES YOU OFFICIALLY REPLACE" Thats why im angry, you guys are indecisive for no reason, and you made me wait hours.


Yeah they should have either made the replacement official or at least inform you that you were on standby. It is quite sloppy and unprofessional of them to leave you dangling for so long only to basically say 'sorry he turned up. thanks for wasting 3 hours'. They should at least own up and apologise to you.

The unfortunate thing is they did officially replace him, both in public (on this thread) and private (in ventrilo).

I basically begged Spades to stay around and play in this and he wanted to leave, now he can't play. Overall bad situation. I have to stand by Spades in this situation.

Wow i did not know they actually went back on their word like that. That is very unprofessional and i completely understand why spades is upset. I hope they at least apologise to you.

Anyone know why they are using the term "octo-finals" instead of "round of 16"?

actually I dont think he completely understands the voidray play. Ps do that to punish teching/greedy terrans or to harass wall-ins.

the 4gate was the same story: he stole gas to delay possible banshees so he could hit the timing with his rush before the banshees could get cloak. It was a very very very well thought out strategy and the execution was almost flawless.

If gosu actually played safe and made strong stimmed MM armys then he would have been fine in those games. Instead he opted for banshee shenanigens which incontrol exactly exlpoited with his strategies.

Incontrol is a baller. I'am very impressed.

Thing is, generally speaking, straight up games favor the better player, whereas cheesy builds are much more luck-based, such as if SiN reacted well to the 4gate, it would have been a free loss.

That's why Day9 is disagreeing with incontrol's strats. It's probably because he thinks he's making it too luck-based instead of just rolling him with macro-based games.

Because octo-finals sounds cooler? I guess they don't want to say round of 16 then quarter finals, semi finals, and finals. This way its all something finals.

guys lol

Sin did same strat 3 times. Worked 1 time (xel naga) then I did 2 strats that directly counter it.

He scouted my 4gate unfortunately but what do you expect me to do? KNOW he is going banshee and cancel some gates and FE or robo? Come on? I had to go forward and count on low unit count to work and it did.

VR destroys 1-1-1 no prob.

Cheesy lol.. it was me playing a tourney. A lot of you ladder newbs need to expand your horizons past your own perspective a bit.

That opening series was awesome, and watching Machine devastate his opponent was also scary and good for other reasons.

I support incontrol, buddy your opening game really made me a fan (aside from your general demeanor and attitued).
