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.

go ahaid brainwashed idra minions, whine about balance despite idra playing painfully bad

70 food lead = bad play? oh, wow, idra haters are just as bad as idra lovers.


Massing pure Roach = bad play. I'm sorry that IdrA can't win with one unit.


The problem with this statement is the "Idra can't win with one unit" remark, when that's exactly what MC did. Not saying there is necessarily an imbalance, just pointing out that your statement doesn't make sense.


If you don't believe forcefields kept MC alive in Idra's initial push near MC's expo, then I don't know what to say.

Also, that immortal did a metric fuck ton of damage.

That isn't one unit. That is using many units properly.

Also understand that people just can't wish units into existence. MC was trapped and had to all-in with blink stalkers because he couldn't get a 3rd. Infestors may have not been the ideal unit to get because it wouldn't come fast enough to make a difference.

But the hydra den probably should have come a bit sooner.


I don't think people are asking him to get infestors reactively. Just saying he needs to tech into *something* besides pure roach, especially when MC is on the ropes like that after his DT rush did jack and losing all his sentries to the burrow-move push

Exactly my thoughts.



Boring? Watching the better players win is boring?

You like the storyline rather than gameplay I guess.

you always have a story when MC is around.

Can I point out that Dreamhack is (unfortunately) mainly a LAN event. Sorry for the people that arent on site or not on vacation :<


Now that doesn't make any sense. Take Formula 1 for instance, they always try to get the timing to fit the most viewers (V i e w e r s), altough it is a circuit race with spectators on the spot.

In most sports the finals are always the Sunday anyway, cause of the viewers attendance.





SOoo yeah, so much for the finals, hope they will change their scheduling a little for the upcoming "lan" on the interwebz.



The LAN is the priority, not the e-sports competitions at the LAN event.

Yes they do, as long as the cost is equal, even if he has great blink micro the hydras will just eat the stalkers.


MC vs Idra game on testbug at MLG kinda show you that it's not the case. :/

He had 4 dts killing his hydras with no detection.

Did you even know that Stalkers beat Hydras in 1v1 even without micro? Or 5v5? Or 15v15?

Idra fanboys are just ridiculous. Idra got a huge advantage after playing like a boss with amazing star sense on the 1st half of the game.
Then he decide to mass Roach O_O.
If he tech to any tech path he would have won, even teching to overlord drop is gonna screw MC up big time, Muta will do as well, and ofc infestor and bane will own stalkers.

It will never change. Koreans will always be better than foreigners. It's not fanboyism or racism, it's the simple truth.


I don't think koreans will always be the best. I think the player that practices harder/the most will always be the best. HuK is not a korean korean. but he practices similar like the koreans so he is doing really well.

the general consensus is that koreans will always practices harder so therefore they will always dominate the scene

Well it is more of simple logic I would argue. If you play more, you get better! If you train with other skilled individuals you get better!

The foreign scene and the Korean scene most likely are just as big, it is simply the amount of hours put together that brings them ahead. Broodwar has nothing to do with the Korean dominance! It is simply just down to man hours and how much effort you put down in the game

Yes I am seriously annoyed by that as well. Can probably watch vods somewhere, but it's by far not as fun as watching live.

There is a guaranteed foreigner in the Ro4, since Huk vs. Socke will result in one advancing (I take the stance that Huk is a foreigner in Korea). If Naniwa and Sen can also make it, then it'll be 3 foreigners 1 Korean in the Ro4. It's not over yet, but it's increasingly looking grim for the foreigner's scene.

MLG Columbus seems to have been no fluke. Europeans are falling like flies just like Americans were


I would say that HuK is technically a Korean, but since hes white hes also a foreigner so if I root for him then he is counted as a Korean, but in real terms he is a Korean.

If you know what I mean :3

Huk would have been equally roflstomped by MC (and probably would be to any of the kroeans except for Moon).

The simple fact of the matter is the korean ladder is the strongest, they have the infrastructure to support players, they have tons of proteams with strict practice regimens.

There is no way foreigners are ever going to catch up without either a) moving to korea or b) developing similar routines.

And I don't even know if b) is possible.
