 heheSeriously though - 1,024 person tournament is brutal! It is going to be really cool to see who can surface in the Top 8! Xeris, you were fun to listen to today haha but you really look so confused as to where you should be looking haha; down at the screen? No at the camera? No at Gretorp - i am not saying this negatively it just looks funny | ||

Even Morrow has a better record against MC. July's path to the finals was not exactly that difficult, and he frequently all-inned (baneling busted MVP twice). Inca made it to the finals, does that mean anything? I've never found him remotely impressive, it's fully hype from his Brood War career. GG to July though. GSL Finalist, CSN's CoTH winner, top of his group in NASL. Truely an overrated player. -.- | ||

Obviously it was imbalance that lost Incontrol that game and not the fact that he literally didn't use his chronoboost once It's an interesting observation, in a way. Protoss isn't helpless (definitely no imbalance or anything), but there's definitely been a growing trend of Protoss just getting rolled recently. Actually, I'd say it's more of a trend of Zerg just absolutely demolishing everyone recently. | ||

Inc was building pylons specifically to spot nyduses. He missed a spot. Was it because it's some sort of pylon black hole where protoss never put any buildings? Nope it was just an accident. I understand the concept of blind spots, thank you very much Mr Condescending. But that's not one. sorry mister scary you are completely right you arent aggressive at all yes it was a complete accident even LUCK and a FACT that july didnt build a nydus in sight of where incontrol had buildings this is also a completely unknown phenomenon in esports. Incontrol is clearly the better player and not at all outwitted can i go now because frankly im a bit worried. | ||

I'm not saying he's the best player in the world, but there is no way in hell anyone could come up with 4 better zerg players than July I think it was more like when you have an aggressive zerg versus a timing attack based toss. It is not the best "style" vs "style" matchup either. July perfer his toss opponent to try to mass those deathballs then just punishes them for being immobile(hitting 3rd or keep your colossus ball tied up chasing roach ling) and hope to induce a mistake like a missed ff and just win. Or he also seems to like to punish players for staying on gateway for too long. His fast hydra build would get decimated by standard 2 base colossus but players have shunned those builds because they tend to be a lot weaker against mid game mass roach/ling timings and switched to a more gateway+ff centered style which is really bad versus ling/hydra. July just played better and read his opponent both game 2 and 3. | ||

Actually, I'd say it's more of a trend of Zerg just absolutely demolishing everyone recently. Protoss have FF. Use it well and roaches won't be such a big problem. I can point to several games where well placed FF stopped roaches cold. | ||

Truely an overrated player. -.- Cool, thanks for quoting my post that addressed those points then repeating them exactly. Rain and Inca were both finalists, this NASL group is probably one of the least scary imaginable minus WhiteRa who I don't think they even played, and he all-inned a ton in CoTH and went 3-2 against Taeja who isn't even Code A. | ||

I've seen plenty of times posts saying you need Blizzard's permission to charge fees. You need permission to charge fees to tune in to the broadcast I believe, not to participate in the tournament. | ||

On June 03 2011 12:42 Mailing wrote: Don't other protoss build more colossus and less gateway units, and use c-boost on the colossus? Every time July attacked incontrol had no DPS because it was 1 or 2 colossus vs 100 army supply. Seemed very late each time No... Seriously, do you actually play this game? Going fast Colossus is the easiest way to lose to these builds. There is a thread in the strategy forum about it, going fast Blink or building up Colossus slowly is the best way to do it as you actually need an army to stop them from bum rushing the Colossus.. | ||
