Considering that this is a tournament with a 5 figure prize pool and there is no way for the commentators to detect a map hacker, it is not without reason to assume that, in this tournament, they could exist. I think, for the sake of the legitimacy of this tournament, the replays from this series should be watched from Naniwa's vision to determine whether or not he map hacked. While I agree that it may be a little rash to outright accuse Naniwa of map hacking, it would be naive to just assume, that in all of those circumstances it was his intuition that prepared him for those non obvious attacks.

Although its heavily dependant on map and positions. I would not compare IdrA to StrifeCro. Even tho I have very much respect for Top NA players, StrifeCro is not even in the Top30 Foreigner Zergs imho. And IdrA is like #1 or #2 or #3 (dunno exactly  ). | ||

The same holds true in Nestea v. Goody. You haven't read anything in this thread, right? Cause there's loads of posts, one from Jinro, about eu->us having way less lag than kr->us. | ||

If that was the first game, it was because Ret didn't notice a Zealot at the watchtower and did not kill it. It saw everything coming for quite a long time, shouldn't have been too hard for Nani to do something about it. Big mistake by Ret unfortunately. | ||

"Terran is pushing in, but zerg has a ton of units streaming in, tons of reinforcements, I don't think terran can defend this, zerg is gonna clean this up... Wow, wait... is terran actually gonna win this? I can't believe this, I don't know how he just defeated the zergs whole army, this is incredible!" Yep. That's a very very familiar feeling Husky.  | ||

Maybe catch some zergs in a triangle and choke them out with the applied pressure of tank shells and thor munitions ? Is it time to flying scissor heel hook a Protoss and twist until he begs to be roasted by blue flames? Hehe, Ive been trying to mech a little again (I mean, Ive never stopped meching completely vs zerg, but its not like how I used to play back in mid 2010 when I only meched), but Im not doing so well with it right now. Dont have any of the timings down, as is to be expected, and Im in terrible shape right now for a whole bunch of reasons. | ||

If you think about the drop on game 2, he actually SAW the roaches and OLs with a suicide lol-immortal. On the third game, the only possible way that Ret could attack was the backdoor rocks, altho it was indeed weird to see him moving like that, he didnt have his whole army at his backdoor at that point, so he was also prepared for a frontal attack. Just game sense. | ||

This is such a stupid post. I guess getting too many cannons when ret took a fast third was just to throw the viewers off then? Ffs... | ||

To actually imply that Goody would go into the GSL and destroy everyone (especially TvT) is astounding. I must applaud my fellow forum users for having the balls to say such a misinformed statement. How is it misinformed? Europe has soo many top terrans like Kas, Strelok, Cloud, Sjow, Bratok,... yet noboy is able to stop Goody lately in TvT. in various tournaments (and Goody literally plays every tournament there is). Cloud (who lost his last 14 bo3's against Goody) said lately that Goody has the best TvT in Europe. I would expect him to do very well vs Koreans in TvT, too. | ||
