Okay we're going to start cracking down on people bashing players for no reason. You don't have to like every player, but at least show some respect. (as of page 402) |

Bring back running battles that go on longer than 2 seconds imo. pretty sure you are the only one

Players like Dde, Moonan or Stalife are overrated imo. They have good stats on ladder but mediocre results in tournaments. Far from being top players. DDE 4-1 Idra last week or this week. Some tournament. That's why people are all excited

Its not like MLG kept the entire community and the players waiting in Dallas right? You dont think CatZ could throw a player off-guard who havent heard about him? have you seen catz playstyle? And yeah I do believe thats the case because yesterday they waited 3 hrs for someone, in older MLGs theyve waited for hours aswell but when its July you can only be late 15 mins to go up vs him So you're claiming Catz would win simply because he 'plays weird?' That's basically the dumbest thing I've read in a while. Its a valid point. Catz is one of the best NA Zergs, and its unlikely July would know what to expect from him. Also Catz is a fairly big step up from the players July has been stomping in the open bracket so he might have underestimated him as well.
Dude, are you still arguing this?
This is no subject to argue. Catz displayed a lack of profissionalism not expected from any pro player except himself. You must be a lot like him if you think MLG overreacted to this situation.

As it is now, just micro your stalkers to the best of your abilities, and hold off the ground forces with your force fields. Watch Nani vs Moon for a good example.

It's pretty pathetic from ROOT that they think MLG should change their rules because Catz can't wake up in time.

Axslav 2-0 Cruncher! Nice.

I would have agreed with MLG had it DQ'd Catz after 30 minutes, but 14? Really? They schedule 1 hour for matches that are typically ending in 10 minutes each time then have to waste time talking while waiting on a match to start.
How they continue to be as unorganized tournament after tournament is just shocking. So...they should charge him a game...then wait longer? I like that you use their decision to award a forfeit to a late player to somehow demonstrate unorganization. ?!?! Yes? That's kinda how you run tournaments. Shit happens. Apparently depending how you read the rules. 5 minutes late = game loss. 10 minutes later AFTER game loss is match loss. If Catz was 14 minutes late, he should have been able to play with 1 game loss based on their rules.
Not really
8. If a Player fails to report to their Station within 5 minutes of their Match’s announcement, they will Forfeit the 1st Game. 10 minutes after the announcement, a Player will Forfeit their Best of 3 Game Match or the 2nd Game of their Best of 7 Game Match. 15 minutes after the announcement, a Player will Forfeit their Best of 7 Game Match. If both Players Forfeit their Match, the higher seeded Player will win the Match. If a Match is announced prior to its scheduled start time, the Forfeit timer will start at the Match’s scheduled start time.

This really sucks, because I thought Catz had a chance. I know July's the favorite, but Catz could've at least made for an interesting zvz match, and July's play can also be risky and/or innovative. I'd assume an event like this is run on a tight schedule, so you can't really blame them if they did give Catz 15 minutes. /sigh, we all lose

On the topic of Koreans Jet Lag
I don't think anyone can argue whether or not they are suffering from some sort of Jet Lag. Anyone who has traveled 10+ hours on a plane can attest to the mental exhaustion it can cause. In addition nutrition/diet is a huge factor in how your body responds to the trip. I wonder how they prepared for this. That being said... Jet Lag is not a reasonable excuse to cite in any of these losses because all players volunteered for it. coming to the MLG was a huge opportunity for each of them ( whether it be CODE S possibility or just fan exposure which I think most would say MC is after). They knowingly decided it was worth the trip ( and its side affects) to play in America in front of an amazing audience and fans. As it has been stated multiple times, jet lag is nothing new. To cite it as the only reason X player would ever lose to Y is just taking away from the value of the production, not to mention ESPORTS as a whole. A player losing who has an enormous amount of skill such as MC or a Nestea etc. of course has multiple factors influencing his game play. Current state of the mind, wellness, timing etc. all factor into the various important parts of the game.Give credit where credit is due and move on. I promise you are promoting nothing but negativity to the game by all this QQ even if it has some merit. Let's get over these factors and enjoy a great product.
