Yesterday's broadcast has had its issues. We all saw it. There are 10+ pages of whining. There is an entirely new cast going on now. Please keep whining about issues experienced yesterday to yourself going forward in the thread and allow other people to enjoy the games. |

That is a pretty silly thing to suggest.

Yay Tyler. You can do it!
Also...NASL allows close positions on metal? Huh.

Tyler Hwaitiing!!
You're about to witness Tyler break his slump!

There's nothing wrong with going all-in when there is (lots of) money on the line.

And why is it silly? It's not a coincidence that ads go on every time that an interview is on.

I hope Tyler get's it together! He seemed so depressed post-TSL3.

Blind fanboyism. Socke could've done a 6-pronged attack off of 8 bases, and people would still be saying it was noobish all in play. Heh I agree that there is a lot of blind IdrA fanboyism in this thread, but seriously? Socke did the incredibly cheesy 5-gate Nexus Cancel attack 2 games in a Bo3. The guy obviously either wanted to piss off IdrA or just really did not want to play a macro game. The Hydra drop was sort of an all-in, but if Socke had been paying attention to his Probes he could have easily stopped it. Nothing even remotely close to getting your ramp FF'd and subsequently losing the game. Regardless, a great series that was exciting from start to finish. Not all ZvP's have to be giant, 30 minute macro games. I think he was playing to IdrA's weaknesses more than anything. He knows that IdrA will generally make few units until he's up to 80 or 90 drones and also knows that he tends to tilt pretty hard, especially in ZvP. Socke was playing pretty poorly in game 2, I won't deny that.

You could just not all in off one base? As IdrA said himself, if he safely expands he would have been in big trouble because it was an all in.

Idra is really the best person for the western esports community to become a total baller and beacome the next jeadong. Hes got the charisma the storyline and the respect for his sponsers to make it a really legitimate thing for sponsers to get into esports and have big money going around.

lovin' the post-game interviews

Wait, out of curiosity, how come there tends to be lag in NASL? Thanks ><
|
Wouldn't close positions not matter anyway in PvP?

Sounds like you're playing pretty low down on the ladder then, no offence but 'all they have to do is make roaches' makes any other criticism you have sound totally invalid.

Just turned on my adblock after "trying" to support esports. set up two streams one with adblock and one without. mute the stream without adblock and put it on 240. Not trying to be an ass, but as a "customer" to them, they should be putting the effort to make the viewing experience better for me, not the other way around. What would you like them to do, have 30 second pauses during the stream for the people who paid? Then run a commercial during that? Just be glad they aren't coming during games.

I love both these players. Guess I'll have to side with my country. American-Toss fighting!

That is a pretty silly thing to suggest. What? It makes perfect sense. You know, something to actually pay for.
