Would love to see Adelscott vs Z or P
And Kas vs Z or P

Kas TvT is pretty damn solid, hardly any problems. I mean did you see those sick sick sick missleturrets? Omg those were so solid.

Adel PvT is strong aswell, Im trying to adapt that style a little, its hard but its doable. You need some proper control tho. And constant constant production. Cant wait to see him play a protoss or zerg.

Very inpiring so far, both players.
KCCO!

Kas already played one Zerg in this tournament so half of that wish is granted

He's playing Adelscott next so he'll get to show off his TvP as well. He recently beat Hasuobs and Axslav in the GCPL Individual Tournament so you know he's scary good in that matchup as well.

Kas' play was bulletproof in all those sets. It wasn't just Nada crumbling, Kas was ahead at pretty much every point in every game. His turret placement in the first set was pure win. I really hope to see more of him in the near future.

Nada played very bad. Under no circumstance can anyone state Kas played a good/solid game as long as the opponent was sub-par.

You can replace the names if you're fond on any of those players but the context remains unchanged.

Yea regardless of the reasons nada played the three worst games I've ever seen him play. He didn't build scv's consistently in any of the games. He fell behind 30 40 supply without any major engagements (that is so rare a player has to be playing really really poorly for this to happen especially in a mirror matchup) in game 3 they both expand at the same time before any engagements nada is around 30 or so supply behind 11 of that is in workers. He had units queued 4 deep on alot of his production structures. That's alot of missed scv's. I don't see how anyone could say wow kas played so well when nada played so poorly. I would like to mention I've never seen nada play this poorly in a LAN setting before its just so uncharacteristic for someone with 3-400 apm to be queuing units in his barracks missing 11 workers building 4 supply depots at once fairly early in the game mis microing on quite a few occasions when he is known to have very
Consistent micro. I dunno something Is up here I think a low level masters player would have stood a better chance against kas judging from those games. I rewatched them a few times so painful to watch

Edit: if you don't agree with me go rewatch the games and see for yourself it was really disappointing watching nada play the three poorest games of his sc2'career and probably brood war career as well. More than once you see him walk into a siege tank line and siege up while his units stand there ><

His PvZ is his weakness so far, it's good for him no zerg are left in his part of the bracket.
And for the vP one, he usually does some heavy macro/upgrade stuff, and he likes to create more paths to harass or backstab the enemy's army (because he doesn't make a lot of colossus in this match-up either ah hah).

No, that was just Nada playing really badly. This is someone who can macro pretty much perfectly in BW, which is much harder than SC2, while microing his vultures to kill every drone on the map, and we saw him getting repeatedly supply blocked and not building SCVs, even at times when there was no pressure at all. I really don't think his macro failures were because of Kas being a genius aggressor. Kas outplayed Nada, yes, but that's because Nada played terribly. I'm not saying Kas isn't a good player, mind you, and I'd love to see him play against someone who isn't completely off his game, but you can't just look at him winning in these games and say he played incredibly well - anyone can look unstoppable when their opponent is bad.


Agreed. The fact is that in this series (Kas vs. Nada), Kas got completely outclassed by Nada because Nada was playing like lower class so that means that Nada was stronger in lower classness than Kas, so Kas, in class level, is higher than Nada, although I'm not ready to put Kas as one of the elite players of the world who have a membership in high class. Sup.


moderator where are you


Are any of those posts really worthy of a warning? Sure they are diminishing Kas' victory, but they aren't saying that he's bad. After all, it's not Kas' fault that Nada didn't perform at his best.

Also, it's not like any of them are satirical... or anything...

Considering that yesterday people were getting 2 day bans for comments like the one you made I would be counting my lucky stars it was only a warning. Although, I suspect this latest comment of yours will remedy that.

MC is on a totally different level to FD and Tyler (especially the godawful Tyler who is currently impersonating him). Not to say he can't lose, but those games don't really mean anything.

ehh... what?! so if the opponent plays bad, you can't be playing good/solid yourself? that's one of the most ridiculous claim I've ever read on TL.

Anyone in their right mind will agree that Kas played superb games and also that Nada pretty much crumbled throughout the series.

Not gonna go into the Nada vs Kas controversy. Despite all debate, TSL3 has been one hell of a tournament. Excellent games and excellent casting. I don't know if the Husky + Chill pairing have casted any games in the past but so far it's been excellent. They're easily up to par with any other duo out there in my opinion. Obviously DjWheat and Day9 are amazing too, but we all know that.

Now, let's hope this tournament will keep surprising. I've got a hard time seeing anyone touching MC as long as he's somewhat serious about it.

I know that MC is practising with a lag of 3 seconds at least... and still winning 3-0 ... so if he lose he don't have any excuses. :-D Nio can avoid lag... in matrix is only a matter of will! ;-)
