Ok, i have watched 2 days since 9 am till 8 pm....and im wow
Ace 10-0 is ridiciules, but he played very well Idra very good as well Morrow one game up to be 3 in group, only one game better then Tarson GSL players owned
Moon 10-2 today skyrocked everyone WOW Moonglade 4-1 in group skyrocked everyone accept Moon WOW WOW and....2h or 3h tie with 3 players....ending GSL player again on top
Diffrence is kid a huge tbh, but Koreans got diffrent style of living i would say, in EU is a little big diffrent world than Korea  But they play very well i have to say. But what North America had to say? 0-10 Fenix? omfg thats ridiciules; QXC 2-10 yesterday.... i dont even know how to comment that i will say n/c
WhiteRa done a little bit bad tbh i expected ( like most of ppl ) a little bit more of him... but in the end GSL players are better in overall
i miss players like Strelok Mana Nani Dimaga Kas Bratok here, i would love to see how they compare to gsl dudes but u cant have it all

Yep, agreed.

Seeing the repeated baneling bust on shakuras was a bit painful. He likes to open speedling/bane which is the same style as Morrow, but Morrow's control is just as good if not better than Glade's. It will most definitely be some short baneling wars tomorrow between the two if the ZvZ's today and yesterday were any indication.

ZvZ is way better than pvp imo.

PvP is bad too, i admit. ZvZ might have more potential for future development, but i find the standard pvp better to watch than the average ZvZ.. they're both bad matchups, we'll settle on that okay >?

Very very true logical points you have there. My local hairdresser is from japan and speaks Danish very well but with a Japanese accent ofcourse, and his voice and whenever he pronounce the words it's very high pitched up and down, because the Japanese language basically is like that.

I had to stop watching right after sjow defeated socke on delta quadrant. Can someone tell me what happened in that group later on?
|
Watching IEM all day including the entire tie breaker after pulling an all-nighter has made me feel like i never wanna watch starcraft again.. what a quagmire that tie-break was.. i enjoyed it at the time to a degree, but in hindsight i think it made me sick of Sc2.. I'll prolly feel different by tomorrow..

if u kno nothing about the language, then dont shit about it. it make u look much more dumbass.

So, now I'm rooting for Morrow. Gogo Morrow!
If he drops out of the tournament -> moonglade (if he drops out) -> idra (...) -> moon
I hope for an Idra vs Morrow final, it would be epic.

At least if ZVZ goes past tier 1, things branch out a bit. 4gate wars into colossus wars.

Thanks, I'll be a little optimistic then. Morrow did win one game against Idra in a ling bling war (the other two involved roaches) so if it turn out that way tomorrow, he's probably got a chance.

I still stand by my theory that it's just shyness. Look at MC and Cella, their english isn't the best but it's still fairly easy to understand them, and MC's interviews in english are still better than interviews with a translator who still doesn't have the best english and with a lot of stuff lost in translation.
