nerchio - very strong zerg

The stream is very laggy, only audio working fine. Not really watchable over here. A shame.

You think Root>EG? hmmm

Nerchio,Happy amd Kas won a shit ton of smaller tournaments in the last month.(just take a look at the tournament roundups.)

Like idra explained , the new mlg shakuras is just like the ladder version but the ramp is unable to be bunker blocked.

Please only discuss the tournament. This is not the thread to talk about teams that are not in the tournament. Thanks!
Stop.

they changed it to the ladder one with an unblockable ramp instead of the old version with cross only.

Yep, you're right. We're working on this at the moment. Sorry for the frustration it may cause! We should have it flowing more smoothly by tomorrow's games. Thanks for pointing it out.

It was recently updated to the Blizz ladder version with a few minor tweaks

ROOT has shown strong result against EG in tournaments and clan wars.
I believe they're 6-2 in clan wars and in recent tournaments, ROOT players often beat EG players.
They're both the top 2 teams in NA and have a good rivalry going on though. I choose ROOT over EG, but it's close no doubt.

Anyway, IdrA is predicting strategies like crazy. Also this looks like this game has potential. edit: spoke too soon, slush just took huge losses

Empire have Nerchio, who's arguably as good as both MorroW and Dimaga at this point in time. They also have Happy who plays ridiculously consistently at the top level, and they have beastyqt who while a level down, is also still capable of taking games off most people. Finally they probably have the best 2v2 team out of anyone.

That push for Strelok did so much damage, things are looking very good for him (and Mouz)

No. The image score is for the overall teamresult. The number is the best of 3 result

is there any restream to this or something of the sort, for some reason this stream does not seem to work for me at work. Kinda sucks, I needs my SC2 to have the nights go faster
