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. | ||

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). | ||

PvP is just so random that any of the 3 could beat each other. Stop spreading this false rumor that PvP is random. Good protosses consistently beat bad protosses, their PvP record is a testament to that. | ||

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. | ||

I'd say special taktiks have a better chance 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. | ||

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. | ||
