I don't wanna burst ur protoss OP bubbles but select could have won that game EASILY.
Colossi take a loooong time to build, when select won the battle and pushed kiwi's 3rd he should have just backed up.
Protoss can warp in 10 units at the same time indeed but those units suck vs a big group of terran units.
Instead Select runs in, suicides his army + all his VIKINGS.
He could have just gone back and come 2 mins later with a HUGE army and be up vs 3 colossi at most.

cool

Kind of sad that Naniwa only has to win 2 matches and this is over... compared to Kiwi's 4... But that's the joy of extended series I guess... Good luck to both players and hopefully we don't just have a super fast conclusion...

It's the unfortunate nature of a losers bracket... It wouldn't be fair if Kiwi could win the overall tournament if he and nani both have 1 tournament loss...


It would be 2 Bo5's for a finals then or 2 Bo3's or 1 Bo3 and 1 Bo5, so 2nd place player would have 2 losses no matter what.

i agree that SeleCT played much better and is the more skilled player, but this game just showed how TvP late game is broken, kiwikaki could just move attack and eat all EMP and still come out evenly in the battle, even if SeleCT wins the 200 vs 200 food battle kiwikaki could just warp in +10 chargelots to cleanup the rest and make SeleCT retreat..


Select did not play better

Kiwikaki had superior upgrades and better macro. that's why after their army engagements, Day9 kept talking about Kiwikaki's supply being higher than Select's. Kiwikaki set up infrastructure to resupply a whole lot faster than Select and it eventually reached a point where Select could not keep up.

also, watch Bomber vs WhiteRa to see how badly a Terran can beat what many consider to be one of the best Protosses in Europe.


I agree, and I would add that we saw Kiwi use two separate deep tech paths (Colossus, DTs). We basically saw marines, maruaders medivacs and vikings out of SelecT. A PDD or two in those battles could've also made a pretty huge difference. I'm not telling SelecT how to play, far from it, I'm just suggesting that we basically saw him on the same tech for a REALLY long time, and its hard to suggest huge balance problems when there were lots of options select had that he didn't necessarily use.

You'll never get better being an angry nerd sitting alone in your room.

Your exactley right. ASelect won each of the first 3 battles, crushed Kiwi, but because Kiwi could warp in 10 more units off of Cool Down., Select had to retreat while his units took 30 seconds to build and join the force. Select could never push his superior play because of a game mechanic. The player who [played best in game 2 lost.

Good thing they changed the bunker and stim timing in the latest patch.


I could probably say that has nothing to do with the protoss domination atm.

I don't know, but I do know that a 2nd win by a fellow swede in MLG would be nice. Go Nani!


TLO,Socke>Sjow. and shouldnt forget Hasuobs and Goody.
Its pretty close between them.
But sweden is Top 3 in europe 100 percents
And furthermore nani doesnt rock europe.he won against many americans so he had a run.

Sweden, Germany, Ukraine top3 probably.

Seriously as much as i hate complaining; extended series kind of delegitimises this in my mind.. The final of a tournament for $5k and Nani is 2 games up from winners bracket round 1 hmm

If Kiwi pulls this off it will make it so much more epic though

Yeah I agree. I would have just won that battle and retreated, keeping the viking numbers up. Kiwi's army really depended on pumping 3 colossi at once and just having those vikings out there would make the battle so much easier.

Don't know why people are discussing extended series. We all went into this MLG knowing extended series would be there. It's a non-story.
Do an arranged marriage if she's not completely minging, and don't worry about dancing, get a go-kart, cheers.
