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.

He played like shit as in he only lost to Idra? Did you even watch those games? Lol his jetlag is well documented. I eagerly await a rematch between them so MC can roflstomp IdrA on even grounds like Dreamhack Invitational. People act like the guy who is 1-7 against Minigun lately is some kind of ZvP monster now. MC is a bit better than Minigun. By "well documented," you mean he claimed it as an excuse after his loss? All the Koreans did fine, including MC in every game after Idra.
By well documented I mean Milkis the Korean translator saying it. I mean Tasteless having to stop casting to take a nap in the back, Losira almost falling asleep in his booth, MMA sleeping for two hours inbetween his matches. MC came to Columbus later and on much shorter notice than everyone else. MC faced Ret and Tyler after IdrA, not exactly difficult opponents for him.

This MLG is a bit disappointing. I loved watching MLG because it was a tournament to see the best Western players battle it out live. Now that they brought in the Koreans there is no more chance of crazy upsets like we saw in Dallas, where an unknown comes to win it all. It is already looking like it will be all Koreans in the final, BORING!!!!
I would have rather seen epic matches like Idra VS Naniwa or other western vs western matches. As it is it will be korean A i don't care about vs korean B I don't care about. Your fault for only "caring" about your own countrys players then.  Open your eyes and appreciate that the BEST players can battle it out in MLG, or would you rather prefer a B-league where the trophy has no real meaning since koreans weren't allowed? I don't only like American players, I like EU players as well, but I just don't care much about Korean players. I know I am not alone, perhaps I am a minority in a hardcore community like TeamLiquid, but there is a reason SC1 was never (really) popular in America, and it is because the average western viewer has no desire to watch Koreans roflstomp everyone. There is also a reason that so far SC2 has exploded in the west, because so far Western players have played each other and had a good chance of winning. If the Koreans start dominating everything then I think a lot of western viewers will get bored and stop watching. You should probably stop being some weird racist and just enjoy good play.
He's actually right about BW, but that's a topic for another thread, not this fast moving LR thread.

HuK is better, sorry sweedie! Huk hasn't done half of what Naniwa has accomplished recently. Code S is great and all but he hasn't won anything since the very first MLG. Sorry but i really don't think they are comparable It's just that Huk can't accomplish the things naniwa has accomplished. Not sure if he could do it, but at least his PvZ is way better than what we've just see from Naniwa vs Losira.
You know, I'm a pretty big HuK fan myself, but Losira 2-0'ed him in GSL too...

What are you talking about? There's now vastly more people that got introduced to SC through the second part. 70% might be an exaggeration but it's a lot a lot a lot a lot a lot
Actually there was a poll on TL not too long ago about the age of the users, and something like 80% were 24 and up, so yes, almost everyone here was born in '95.

Slick defense by Idra. Cool as a cucumber (never understood that expression tbh).

Bad harass, bad multitask, bad build from MMA

HuK is better, sorry sweedie! no lol Has Huk beaten anyone in Code S that wasn't a really shitty player? He usually gets a shitbag of players for his up and down matches too. He has beaten MMA in the up and down matches actually. But I still think Naniwa > HuK easily. Until Naniwa goes through Code A, gets to Code S and stays in Code S, you cannot say he is better easily. I am a huge HuK fan, but I don't think that is a fair statement for Naniwa. I think a fair statement is to say that there is 3-5 top foreign Protoss vying for the best Protoss title, and Nani has an edge in some peoples books, whilst HuK has an edge in others. White-Ra and Kiwikaki might also have a claim to this as well. Either way, I think it is fair to say they're all close in skill, and all very good.
And thats my point. Its close. I was just saying you cannot say Naninwa > Huk easily like the guy I quoted said. None of them have the advantage easily.
