Did you make that? I was hoping you could make another one with the first shot saying "Abusing tricks in other matchups"
and then the juke..... "Except being bad in the mirror"

People are taking the coinflip thing way too literally. It's like one of those things somebody hears on a podcast or an interview and then keeps repeating to himself and everyone else because it makes losing easier and somehow justified (similar to the way many Zerg players take the game nowadays).
There's a lot of mind games going on in PvP, but more than one player (MC, Socke as others already stated) proved that you can be really good at identifying all the small tells, getting that extra bit of advantage by sniping 1 more Stalker, having better positioning, and if the game progresses to later post-4gate stages, you can still just play better, smoother and micro better than the other guy.
Can you open with a generic build and be safe against everything for 13 minutes and smoothly expand and transition into a longer game in a PvP? No. But that doesn't make it "luck based" or "coinflip". People are just overreacting to the fact you need to play PvP with a slightly different mindset.
Players who played better will still win in 9 out of 10 cases. Just like in any other matchup.

Is it 5.20 AM local time now?

Why isn't HuK being disqualified for talking in the beginning of the game?
Not only was that against the rules, but what he was talking about could throw IdrA off his game.

Can someone please sum up Idra vs HuK games, I'm really interested to here detailes of those games?

Is there any word on a rebroadcast, similar to yesterday? I kind of had to sleep when shit finally started (Destiny replays).

Do you really have to bring this up again? There is probobly more than 50 pages in this thread about just that. And your opening statement is also WRONG. The rules does not state that you get disqualified for talking, you forfeit the game. That game had no outcome on the placement in that group whatsoever.

So Huk vs Idra was broadcasted after all?

If they inforce that rule they need to bann 80% of the players. This was an issuie last year.

so what time is it now in dallas?

Please Teamliquid, NEVER and I repeat NEVER postpone your own tournaments again for this MLG!
Seriously, it is just bad, for sc2 and for you. When I imagine, we could have seen some great sc2 games by watching TSL and when I imagine, we would actually have had a site a forum and an irc channel where we can get information, man this weekend would have been great.
Day1 I stayed up til 4 am, to see 20 mins of sc2. Day2 I waited the whole day, and all I saw was 1 replay serie (that started with day9 saying how it ended), but then I went to bed, this time I will only wait till 2:30 am.
So now Day3... they make it work? I don't know, honestly, I don't care.
This was the worst weekend in sc2 history I can remember. Every different competition made a break to give the stage to MLG, everything was Dallas, and Dallas was really really bad! The way they give us information is bad. And the way they treat their viewers especially from Europe in my eyes is just unrespectfull.

Would you prefer to have a clash when (if) MLG gets their shit together? Fuckups are bound to happen eventually, guess MLG are the ones who had the first major one. You didn't expect every tournament in SC2 to go flawless, now did you?

Day 3 is always the best and they usually fix all the problems by then.

There won't be a rebroadcast because the stream is down while they upgrade their equipment during the night. I think it was on Sundance's twitter or something.
Poor tech guys
