I believe you should download the replay and watch again, his micro wasn't worse than Squirtles.

this is awesome! If they tie again this will be more epic than the Syracuse and Connecticut dragging it out to 6 OTs

Its amazing how socke can make 100 mistakes in one game and then go on and play a perfect game, so inconsistent.


Maybe he isn't use to play long macro games. It just seemed like there where so many things going on at the same time in that game that he could not do everything at once.

It was a little bit like sanZenith against Nestea with the difference that those two actually could be everywhere at once ;-)

He's played plenty of great macro games. His nerves were clearly getting to him, it happens. When you catch yourself doing mistakes it doesn't exactly help your play that game either.

because all 3 players are equal. There is no way to put one player ahead of the others by putting him in the second game.

No they only need 2 in a row. The reason socke needs 3 is because his game against sjow was part of the first tie breaking set but they all tied again so they reset it.


So Sjow wins, then the series is reset and he has to win 2 more? I'm confused, why is IEM so confusing.


no..

a players needs to win 2 games in a row to pass.. thats just it

squirtle's 3 stalkers were 10x more efficient than socke's much larger force, is what he's saying

Because the loser of game 1 could potentially beat the 3rd person, meaning they are not technically the worst.

Socke has won 2 games in a row.

Or am I just completely lost and out of this?
