I thought this exactly.

Can't get gas if he intends to keep it hidden though. No idea how soon/late he's going to get the gas but it's worth considering.

Also, provided this turns into a long macro game Nani is going to have one less base, while Select will have one more. In a map divide scenario.

Nice macro games so far :D
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

That'd get sniffed out as soon as anything touched the xel'naga tower, though.


I think xel'naga range is only up to gas

so as long as he doesn't mine gas there, it'll stay hidden

Fast expansion.

Cheese most often refers to an unexpected strategy that relies on large parts on secrecy and/or psychological impact on the opponent.

TLO going CC first IS Cheese


This is so wrong.

Actually it's not wrong, CC first is cheese, but their's nothing wrong with it.
Flash did this a lot.


Idiocy ensues.

In what universe is CC first cheese? Stop making up your own definitions for things only to justify your feelings.

Just to refer to liquipedia:

"Cheese is a pejorative expression which refers to a strategy that is highly unconventional and designed to take one's opponent by surprise. In general, cheese is hard to beat if not scouted but easy to defeat if it is scouted."

..that sounds exactly like CC first, man..


oh yeah, CC first definitely takes one's opponent by surprise, it shocks and frightens them... no wait.. they see it and go "oh i can 4gate/3rax/12pool and win"

As much as this blows for us to sit and listen to talk about absolutely nothing, it's gotta suck for Day9 and Wheat to try to think of shit to talk about while they wait an interminably long time for players to set up, as well..


No man. They're already set up (the players) thats why this is so infuriating. They're playing right now while the commentators are forced to talk about stupid shit because of MLG.


The irony behind all of this was the hate MLG garnered at the first event with sc2 when they had a small pool of players. Everyone bitched at them for not making it the premier event immediately. When they responded that they did not want to add everything at once to make sure it runs smoothly, they were again met with the venomous attitude of TL elitists.

You guys are ridiculous, were you there when sc:bw first began in S korea? you are comparing their events in quality when one has had YEARS to perfect their system. MLG, whether you like it or not, was the first major tournament to feature SC in the U.S., there are going to be kinks, especially since there is no lan functionality.

Naniwa is still setting up, this isn't gsl with one game being played at a time. They have to pick matches to observe. this isn't gsl, how do people not see the huge differences between them? Or the differences between MLG and online tourneys? It is three days with a massive player pool, together with dozens of consoles and separate streams being played at the same time.


Are you serious? It's not like MLG is blazing the technological forefront here. They have been established and holding events for multiple years now, youd figure theyd be able to run an event without 7+ hours of technical difficulties. There are many other smaller, less funded tournaments that manage to run smoothly. MLG fucked up, hard, stop desperately trying to defend it.


Sounds like somebody needs a hug
There's no S in KT. :P

Can someone explain to me the end of the brackets here? Who has a chance of being in the grand finals?

The winner of this match goes to the finals.

The loser of this game then plays Socke/TLO (?? or whoever is still in the lower bracket) for the other spot in the finals.

We see alot of quality tournaments on the SC2 scene, GSL, TSL, some of the smaller tournaments. In comparison, MLG actually HAVE been a disaster, excuses or not.

We may be spoiled. But Id rather continue to be spoiled with quality content than to make excuses for MLG that have just been subpar, from tournament-format to execution.

The SC2 is MOSTLY better than this, and deserves better than this. Thats all I have to say about MLG. Hopefully it will be better in the future. They have alot of learn, and they have alot of great examples to learn from.


GSL, TSL and a majority of other tournaments DON'T compare to MLG.

Totally different event i.e. Huge LAN.

Because CC first is HIGHLY unconventional?
Because it's DESIGNED to take one's opponent by surprise (rather than securing an economic advantage)?
Because a CC first is hard to BEAT if not scouted?

CC first is by no means something that kills you.

Do you realize the risk of going CC first? This is before even making a barracks.
