We will be moderating harshly in this thread. Think twice before you post. Things we are watching for: image macros, balance whining, "eagles", player bashing etc. We encourage civil and reasoned critique of our moderation - please post it in the website feedback forum.

Please don't complain about MLG stream quality or MLG itself. They work very hard to provide you with an enjoyable service.

Enough with the racism discussions, this is a LR Thread. Cut it out.

A move? He was microing all that time. He did dual attacks, kept on microing everything during that time.

He just did a crazy strategy that involved 3 base drone pumping into just a bunch of roach lings. I mean, he had 4 hatcheries BEFORE he had his lair. How crazy is that!

During the entire time he was attacking he kept macroing, and reinforcements just kept on swarming in. His entire strategy was beautiful.

It really wasn't. I'm not gonna detract from Losira here because he DID completely outplay Naniwa, but his play was anything but beautiful.

Idra against MC was beautiful. This was standard.


*Note to self* Zerg can only play "beautifully" if they use drops. Doing the same thing with multiple Zergling harassment just doesn't cut it.

It really had nothing to with balance this game that Naniwa lost. I mean Losira's on a different level, and like the tastosis said he only practices with koreans. I mean if you were zerg and practiced with NesTea best zerg in world of course you'll be godlike.

I think Nani would still learn a lot by living in korea and practice against them - still I don't know what teamhouse might suit him best.

Hurray for Ret!

Did MC already 2-0 Thorzain or is that just from their previous series and it's going to be extended? No way Thorzain can take 4 out of 5 from MC....
Apologize.

I love the fact that Naniwa is not trying to do some all-in/cheesy moves. He is playing straight up macro games

he is showing why if you don't chese or do a timing atack (all in) you just lose vs zerg

I kind of agree. It shows Protoss can't win in a straight up macro game. You need to harass, you cannot let Zerg macro like that.

No it shows that Naniwa fell behind significantly in economy and paid the price...

What do you suggest Naniwa doing? Taking a 3rd so he dies even earlier?

Perhaps doing something during the time Losira is making 1231231 drones ?? You can safely get a third up around the same time as a zerg if he just sits there and masses drones like losira is doing.


He tries that first game, it didn't go well. It's hard to win when your opponent is just a far superior player.

Losira going all CheckPrime on Naniwa's ass, hahaha. Just roaches instead of blings.

The standard composition against Protoss for a long time was roaches... Zergs almost never went Banelings until recently when all the Baneling drop play started.

I don't hate Gretorp at all, I am sure he's a really nice guy

but it's just funny to me he wins next to nothing at MLG and seems to always be seeded lol. More to do with MLG's system than the player I guess though

That's really not the case, they are just much better, that's the harsh truth.

Yea its not that they play better its that their opponents arent on the same caliber.

Important news friends, after seeing that Bing commercial countless times both on user Streams and at this MLG, I just realized that the band at the beginning is the same group of people that go to the spa, hence that is why the girl who received the fedora at the concert finds the band in robes so amusing. Repetition does work, and that commercial has lodged itself into by brain unfortunately. Go Idra.

WE CAN'T BE DEFEEEAATEEDDDDD!!!

Have recently realized this as well. I blame Justin tv and Cella's stream

There are so many things Naniwa could have done so toss'es should stop QQ'ing.
DT's would have royally screwed Losira since he had no lair. Also Immortal's and Archons would have ripped Losira's composition. Instead he tried to stick to Colosus deathball like a typical ladder player.
