sick series.

boring as hell game 3 though, sit back on two base and let the tech choices made blidnly without any scouting decide the winner irrespective of macro, micro, or positioning. a game that doesn't show anything about the winner unfortunately, i felt a lot better about Nani in game 1 where he outplayed MC as opposed to this crap.


Naniwa didn't outplay MC in game one. It was a build order win. That's why PvP is so stupid, most games aren't decided by skill but by which build order you blindly picked, the reason MC is so good in PvP (as opposed to basically anyone else) is that he is able to win often when his build order is worse than the others guys (see game 2 in this series).

I agree with you, first game came down to decision making but in the last game Naniwa just out-microed MC tbh.



The only reason naniwa won was because of the +2w upgrade. Pure BO loss since they were just massing army for the whole game.

Didn't you see the micro? Naniwa focussed on the colossus with his colossus. MC was focussing on the Zealots. No buildorder loss...


It's not a build order loss at all cause they did the same openings, but the upgrades helped Nani win that fight so much faster than normal.

Go MC! COME ON! U can still win it! (wow naniwa, wow!)

Indeed he can. The Grandfinals don't give a large advantage to the winners bracket player. Only 1 map in a bo7.


Wait, what?

Double elimination tournaments have their rules for a reason. If it's 1 BO7, then if Nani and MC meet in the grand finals, that means that MC could win that BO7 and win the entire tournament after losing a BO series, while Nani hadn't lost a single one until then.


TaKe already said the one coming from the Loser bracket will be 0-1.

Is that 0-1 in games in a BoX, or 0-1 in series, with it being a Bo3 BoX?

>.<..
Imagine MC wins everything in the loser bracket and gets to play Naniwa in the Grand finals, then Naniwa will be up 1:0 in a best of 7.
Hopefully now everyone understands it!

Ah ok thanks. I think it would be better if the winners bracket player had to win 1 series, and the losers bracket player another series. That way seems to embrace the double elimination format better.

I also agree, maybe 2* bo5. But i guess this way it's less confusing.

Wow, you people are acting completely pathetic. omg MC loses 2-1 in close games in PvP, time to mock him?


Well a lot of people are very sad that over the last two months Koreans have proven they are well in advance of foreigners, so when the one Korean at the tournmanet loses a bo3 2-1 (having previously not dropped a map) in the most build order centric matchup they get really excited and act like it means something.

If Nani is already capable of beating MC...then wtf how good will he become when practicing in korea?


Any pro player is capable of winning a PvP against another pro. It's PvP. Do some people even play this game?


If that was indeed the case, then how come MC lost his first PvP series vs Alicia in ST, and how come Inca NEVER lost a PvP series ! Nani beating a PvP beast like MC is a huge deal !!! Mad props ! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This thread is full of a disgusting amount of trolling for a Korean player losing 1-2 in a bo3 PvP lol.

Still, I suppose it's more significant than a ZvZ, ZenexCoca got knocked out of today's TL Open by a Plat Zerg 7 pooling him rofl xD

Naniwa should stomp his way into Code S. Hopefully Thorzain does too.
