Sadly after all this time with so many tournament threads it still is not clear to many users on this site. There are several types of posts that are not acceptable in tournament threads. Any form of:

Imbalance whine/Player bashing/Caster bashing/Stream complaining

Will result in two day to a week long bans even for first offenses. Please stick to the games at hand and enjoy yourselves with a beautiful event such as this and the free service that comes with it.

Sigh, it's kind of annoying to have a schedule and then not stick to it. Start cooking dinner so it's nicely timed before watching the matches on the hour, and then it starts early so I'll miss the one I wanted to see

oh well, go Bomber.

I don't think any EU protoss can beat Bomber and PvP vs MC is more likely, but still very hard. Idra or Sen can beat Bomber possibly if they meet, but in Idra's case that is highly unlikely

I can see MC losing to NaNiwa or white-ra in PvP.

I mean NaNiwa vs. MC at MLG wasn't exactly completely one-sided. The games were pretty terrible BO loses. PvP is just so random that any of the 3 could beat each other.


MC destroyed nani in colombus. PvP isn't as random as people think it is. It IS extremely unforgiving, but for players with near perfect micro like MC it becomes much less of a toss-up.

I'd say special taktiks have a better chance

He didn't destroy him... the DT game was pretty much a BO loss. Although admittedly I can't remember what happened in the second game... its been awhile

And it is much less micro dependant since it stopped being 4 gate vs. 4 gate. Now there are so many BO losses. Like even Tyler (who has been out of practice for so long and clearly isn't up to Naniwa, MC or white-ras level) managed to take a game off MC and should have won their series at MLG (if not for some terrible blunders).

Stop spreading this false rumor that PvP is random. Good protosses consistently beat bad protosses, their PvP record is a testament to that.

Yeah, it's a lot of PvP, but sorry, I can't control the future, only predict it.


4 for 4 so far!

:D


You sir, are crazy. Do you really think Hasu will beat Bomber.... and then beat MC? No chance


He beat Thorzain.

Well that sure is an irrelevant answer if I've ever seen one. He beat Thorzain. Hahahaha so what??? Thorzain??? What does beating Thorzain have to do with even being close to capable of beating Bomber? Bomber and Thorzain aren't even close in terms of skill. Not even close.

Bomber hasn't really looked that impressive in this tournament though. He's good but certainly not unbeatable.

How the hell is that tears? I just said foreigner terrans aren't doing well, don't be dumb. I never said anything about imbalance.

Bomber needs to cripple HasuObs early on, or he'll be dangerous.

Game one, Naniwa broke MC's front and danced his zealots pixels away from seeing the dark shrine, assuming he'd already won and failed to react to the game continuing past that point. Game two, Naniwa inexplicably did a build incapable of holding off a 4 gate and GG'd as soon as he saw the pressure. "Destroyed" is a very odd way of describing those short, very exciting yet terrible games.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

While Ret's ZvP might have seemed uninspired compared to Sen's and July's, he did get quite far in this tournament and lost to Socke, who has one of the best PvZs in Europe.

That's why Alicia destroyed MC in the GSLST (outmicroed MC), but he still has by far the best PvP at this tournament, that's why it is his tournament to win, if he can defeat Bomber


I thought that was one of the fascinating insights by artosis about MC vs Inca's pvp. MC's a mechanics based style generally where he just outskills his opponent. Inca develops all sorts of kooky BOs. I think it's interesting how at least this match up has this sort of dynamic (it's so noticeable because it is a mirror). This is not to say that MC doesn't make great builds or can't come up with weird mirror cheeses, but i think it's an interesting insight.

Clearly I meant random enough for any of those 3 to win against each other. I didn't mean random enough for anyone to win at any given time.
