EPTAs stated on the Starcraft stream, they are having internet issues at the venue and players have chosen not to play until they are resolved to allow for the best matches. Grubby and DDE played one game, started the second game and then paused the game due to a massive lag spike, no games have been played since or are currently being played for Starcraft on the mainstage.

I feel confident in any build I do, as long as I dont mess up (forgetting pylon, etc).. but I alternate between standard K4G and 3stalker, along with mixes inbetween and I almost rarely ever get caught off guard with a K4G. My PvP win rate is over 85% (above 3500, but I was top 200 for a month when I played most, with wins over most of the protoss currently in this MLG event) Its the only matchup Im actually good at lol It really comes down to unit control like you said, but what you can get away with in terms of the build, and when to attack, is the key to the fight. Anyways, my point is, the better micro and smarter decision making will always win in PvP.. You MAY lose a game to a lesser player, but if that happens its 100% your fault, most likely a micro misclick.. A good player will never do a build that dooms him from the start, thats just silly. My point being, theres MUCH more in PvP than just a build order.. Although I understand why people think that when they have bad control.. I'd agree tht the early game is based on better micro and decision making. However, i think the main problem of PvP is not the 4gate shit in the early game (not tht i like it) but it's after tht. It becomes rock, paper, scissors. U choose either a robo, stargate or blink build, most of the time without knowing wat ur opponent is doing. Thts when the build orders really come into play. You automatically get an advantage or a disadvantage depending on which one you choose. | ||

Of course we can, any possibility of this happening would be gone with LAN support. They introduced the internet as a necessity as a huge variable for tournaments and stuff like this happens. | ||

As you may have noticed, we are experiencing additional internet problems in the venue. The match between Grubby and DDE has been moved off of the Main Stage in order to better monitor the internet connection. We will be bringing you updates from the match as it happens. DDE currently holds a 1-0 lead in the series, and the winner will take on Sixjax Mihai in a battle for the final spot in Pool Play. | ||

I like how you keep posting, as if we care about Halo, or as if streaming halo would be difficult. Please stop fanboying for MLG, it's pretty pathetic. | ||
