First time watching the IEM (through GosuGamers), and a few questions:

Is anyone else having a problem getting a video feed? The audio, however, seems to be working fine...

Do they normally switch between German and English at the beginning like that?

EDIT:

Nevermind. Video wasn't working because I had two instances open. Dumb me.

I guess at this moment we cannot say that they are players from GLS code S one level above othere top korean, na, eu players. You can see this GSL lot of "above level" players left the torunament, MVP, NESTEA, MKP. They are better but not with a "level". You can see for example Squrite-Socke-Sjow tie brake, showed us how equal are the top players from europe with the top korean players. You can tell me now that ok, Squirtle is not MC, ok but any time he can put problems to MC, what i want to say is in an overall league MC will make lets say a score of 10-4 and Squirtle only 6-8. Direct match would be irelevant. (Squirtles PVP not so good).
Anyhow lest hop Jinro will win a GSL this year, or maybe HUK if he managed to go code S after this season.

Any special thread for IEM day 3 already?

It's at a German tradefair (just like gamescom), because of that our host talks sometimes directly to the German audience, which needs to be German.

So I can't really read hundreds of pages...

anyone care to give me a brief synopsis of what happened in the tie-breaks? It looks like there were billions of games, how was that possible? :|

it was because socke always wins his PvP vs squirlte, but lose to sjow. and sjow lose to squirtle... and that like 3 or 4 times total...
so they had to play it all over again.

as far as i remember, everybody had a chance to "win" but missed... socke even 2 times. he won 2 times vs squirtle in first game, but lost to sjow...

all games were rly fun to watch, and even between games was fun, cause of statements from day9 rotterdam and tlo like:

"i just saw idra sitting there smiling and telling something like: i like this... you know i have to play the winner of this, tomorrow morning"

that said with a wink on the fact that you need a lot of stamina for all thies tie breaks....

was rly rly fun to watch!

So basically Socke > Squirtle > Sjow > Socke then?

How was the chain finally broken? ^^
