You are telling me that a pure stalker ball needs to be opposed by 3-4 different types of units in order to have a chance? Ok now the game makes sense.
Protoss just builds blink stalkers the whole game and still has a shot at winning.
I understand perfectly.

Does MMA get to code S if he wins?

I was almost certain idra had that game when he attacked. But apparently there were DTs hacking away at idra's army that the casters didn't notice... and those of us watching on the low quality stream probably didn't notice either in the midst of all the action.

If it weren't for the DTs, I'm 100% sure idra's army would have dominated the blink stalkers.

For everyone seeing the Koreans as dominating force, yes they are. But remember that these (Losira, MC, July, MMA) are the absolute top Koreans. It's not strange that they dominate, it would be rather strange if they didn't.

I think we can take some conclusions from MLG now:

1.- Koreans are the better SC2 players: All koreans (except for moon) performed very well on pool play, while dealing with jetlag. Koreans in the championship bracket were only eliminated by koreans. Top 3 is all-korean. I think it's proof enough, even if I think the foreigner pool could be a bit stronger, I don't think the results would be too different.

2.- Nani is best foreigner protoss, hands down. Idra's position as best foreigner zerg is kinda doubtful, you can't be the best with that terrible mindset.

3.- Thorzain is a great player and TSL3 wasn't a fluke at all. Sheth shows TONS of promise, as do Major and ViBe, for the foreigner scene.

4.- Koreans are better showmakers as far as gaming stuff go. This whole "MC SO BM" thing is ridiculous, he's putting up a show. This is why MC's "BM" is different from idra's. He uses it to entertain the crowd, not to randomly dish shit like Idra does all the time. We could see how MC actually feels about his opponents. He very respectfully hand shook with nani and moon, and probably T-zain as well.

5.- Tastosis is funnier that Day/WHEAT, but the latter can make games a little more exciting.

6.- This was, all in all, a GREAT EVENT. Props to MLG for surviving the Dallas disaster and becoming a lot better. Really, congratulations, you've shown balls.

You do understand that the players here at MLG at easily the top 16 Code S players right? IdrA is still better than 95% of the korean progamers.
