O_O I like the extended series concept since it means that every single game in the tournament is meaningful, and throwing games or not revealing your full strategy would probably never be a good idea ><
Don't know why so many people are bitching about it since it's not like Naniwa hasn't earned his 2-0 lead vs Kiwi. I think it's a much better concept than automatically awarding someone a bo5 series lead since they're from the winners bracket instead of the losers bracket.

Any reason for no Ravens in the Terran mix there? Between DT detection and point defense drones (to protect the vikings) it seems like they'd be a good addition. Would it just have been too much gas?



No. You're absolutely right. terran just needs to catch up strategy wise. When you go bio, and the other guy is goign colossus heavy, ravens become really good at saving vikings, because they can place forward pdd's while vikings chase the army.


It's not an issue of strategy, it's an issue of execution. Being able to stim kite, drop PDDs, control vikings perfectly, cast perfect EMPs, and macro well at the same time is simply not possible with even 300 apm.

We could only hope that Naniwa would say something about the garbage that extended series is since he does have the balls to be honest. I love Kiwi but I see Nani winning two games before Kiwi can win two. Oh wells....

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

The vikings thing is a great point. He landed his vikings like 5 times. Every time he lost ALL OF THEM. If he had kept them he could have produced something else instead of MORE VIKINGS.

Naniwa gonna 4-0 KiWi easily
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. ♞

YOu people don't understand, how fair would it be to Naniwa, if it weren't for the extended series, that he could have gone 24-0 until then finals then lose 2 out of 3 and be 2nd place? He needs to be awarded this sort of advantage, he deserves it, as everyone who comes out of the winner bracket in any tournament.

Im a Zerg player. Though could someone inform me as to how Select lost that game? I don't have a player in this race anymore. Thought i am quite perplexed as to how he lost.

Select seemed to crush so many armies of Kiwi. While Select took losses him self, i figured that his rax units would be easier to replace than the Colossi Kiwi was loosing. Though it always seemed that Select had the smaller army.

Did Select not macro properly, or did he not build enough rax to replenish his army as quickly as he would have liked?

Better macro. Better upgrades. Awesome map vision. A lot of the drops made by select were intercepted very well, an drops are critical mid game for terran to expand get upgrades etc. the drops just didnt work out for select, without this kiwi moved ahead easily and could macro up an army as soon as he lost one, due to 3 robo and 8+ warpgates with 4+ bases to support it. Added to this the dts made select use all his scans, preventing him from getting those mules. so ultimately I think it came down to map vision and macro.

have you guys never seen a double elim finals before? this is how it is.
how fair would it be for the undefeated nani if he lost the finals 2-0 to a player who he 2-0'ed in the previous round? this is double elim, you cant make an exception for the finals, nani has to lose twice before he's out, kiwi only has to lose once.

im actually glad this is an extended series. who the fuck wants to watch a bo7 pvp.

hopefully nani wins in 2 quick games.


There would be a max of 5 games either way, though i guess the minimum would fall from 3 to 2.
