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. -- updated 7:55 KST | ||

Well that isn't an entirely fair statement. Most people aren't suggesting that they remove extended series and replacing it with nothing... the idea is that there should be a bo3, and then if the person who won the first time they met lost this time around, THEN they should go to a third bo3. This means that Thorzain would currently be going into a completely new bo3 with MC now, which is FAIR... but instead Thorzain still has to win 4 games to beat MC, but instead of MC having to get 2 games in one of the bo3 series... he can get those 2 wins throughout his games against Thorzain. | ||

Not knowing how old idra is, i'd guess 11 or 12 based on his immature behaviour. it's just so off putting I like how Huk's grammar is so bad that people actually thought MMA said that. | ||

You guys can be as apologetic towards MLG as you want, but if the Wimbledon Finals were to be played at court 3 while at the same time the third place match were to be played on the centre court and broadcast instead of the finals, everyone would be up in arms about the poor organization of the tournament. UTTER FAIL MLG! because the match started while Idra-MMA was going on. Your killing me with your lack of knowledge about the situation. Also July moon was on the other stream. They could possibly play it on the blue stream just for the internet viewers thou | ||

IdrA then thinks that MMA has an early third, while IdrA has 4 bases (just got his fourth up i believe?). MMA drops on IdrA and IdrA pulls some of his drones onto the drop and some to the gas, at the same time the battle at the middle starts and when IdrA looks back he then thinks that all his drones at the natural are dead, rather than stacked up on the extractor. He sees that MMA is taking a fourth, wich is a gold; he taps out. Even though it was ridicolous of IdrA to tap out I seriously doubt that he thought MMA was only on 2 bases with a third building, imagine yourself being in IdrAs spot for a while. You face one of the best terrans in the world, you see a third CC inside of MMAs base at like 9-10 minutes, it would only make sense that this super good player would move this somewhere to use it as an expand. You get your fourth base up etc and then he drops you, from what it looks like from your point of view you only have like 1 remaining drone at your natural and you see that the opponent takes a FOURTH base at the gold expansion, all your Zerglings are dead, all your banelings got killed before they even reached the marines and more marines will come any second due to the economy that the early third base provided. Your mutalisks will NOT clean up the tanks in time, thus you have to retreat with the mutalisks, build up additional zerglings, morph some to banelings and then hold the push that will most likely come as fast as MMA is back on his feet, all this while MMA is soon to be sitting on 4 solid mining bases. You tap out From a spectators POV, this looked so one-sided and it seemed like an easy win for IdrA. From a IdrA POV, not so much... there's no way that he could've expected MMA to kill his own third base, thus he thought MMA was gearing up to take a fourth. While this may be the worst ragequit GG from IdrA from our POV, it probably isn't from a player POV... Either way, it was silly of IdrA not to play it out and I hope that he stops doing this, even tho I really doubt it ![]() How does he think MMA is making a 4th? He had an overlord over the only other place I could assume his 4th base would have had to been (south of his main). If he assumes he has a hidden expo, why didn't he try and scout it with his mutas? | ||
