Extended series is le suck. It's an awful rule. But that doesn't mean Tod didn't deserve his win, who knows how he would have played given different circumstances.

They're like Blademaster, on wheels, with more speed, an AOE range attack, no lumber or gold cost, you can have more than one, and they come from the future. Scary shit I shit you not.

They are kind of like motherships, but don't fly, move three times faster, shoot only one beam of blue destruction, can actually do damage, have wheels instead of floating, aren't protoss units, don't come out of a nexus, can not be chronoboosted, but can be reactored, cost 2 supply, don't have spells, are less vulnerable to templar, are lower tech, are designed for proffesional play and cost only minerals.

MLG: We're taking a look at the upcoming Pool Play matches to determine the schedule. We'll have a revised hour by hour broadcast schedule for the afternoon up shortly.

Looks like I'll know if I should keep watching for a few more hours or call it a night. I'm hoping to catch Tyler-DRG and Ret-MMA.

So you'd rather Alicia advance over Tod with a 2-3 record?

Would I rather the over all better player advance if it was 2-3? Yep.


That's an opinion, results are fact.

It is not an opinion. ToD has a 51% over all winrate in foreign events, that is, against far worse players. Alicia has a 58% win rate against koreans.

Fact is that ToD beat him in a straight up match this tournament. You can pull out statistics all you want but that doesn't change the fact that Alicia lost to ToD and thus played worse than him.


As long as tod loses next round, i'm happy. Couldn't care less who he beats. Just want him to lose

Lol isn't ToD French as well? Did he steal your girlfriend or something what is up with the hate?

He beat Alicia. That's almost as bad, dude.

Hahahaha, yeah. Anyways, I don't get the hate. I'm as big an Alicia fan as the next person, but ToD deserved his win, and I hope he gets all the way through to the finals, personally. He's a cool guy and was such a great WC3 legend back in the day. I've been waiting for him to put up results for a long time, so I'm glad he's performing so well at this MLG.

Well maybe ToD has improved lately and he's now better than Nestea and MC combined.

The player who wins games should get the place in the tournament. If only that actually applied to MLG events instead of their ranking system basically making it near impossible for a person new to MLG to get into the groups and making it equally difficult for a player who plays decently at best to lose their group spot.... Players like SeleCT, drewbie, and TLO have successfully played horribly 2 MLGs in a row, yet I'm sure that a couple of them will still be in the groups next MLG. Yay for your broken system MLG!



agreed


its retarded how people who play badly in groups 1 tournament get to be in the groups next tournament



some kind of system needs to exist to possibly take 90% of the group players from each event and throw them out and replace them with winners of small mini tournies or something, which group players can play in


Or perhaps they are the weakest of the best players. They stay in the groups because they then subsequently also wreck the guys that come from the open bracket and are in the losers bracket. You guys are probably the same people that complained when the GSL was too volatile. You can't have it both ways.

ah well thats fair enough really. ToD is still 4-2 overall, and 3-2 at the point you are saying.

Fact is that ToD beat him in a straight up match this tournament. You can pull out statistics all you want but that doesn't change the fact that Alicia lost to ToD and thus played worse than him.

sc2 isn't as black and white as that. Lets look at the best example, Inca. Inca is capable of beating the very top protosses in pvp, yet he is barely a code A level player over all. He is only good in that match up. When Inca beats a top protoss, it is a loss for the tournament over all because that sort of player cannot beat the other races. Now I am not saying ToD cannot beat other races, just that Alicia across the 3 different match ups is proven to be a better player, so it is a loss for the tournament as a whole.


But it's a win for ToD. A win he deserved. By beating Alicia.

Anyone who watches the tod vs alicia reps would know that tod utterly outplayed alicia; don't look dumb saying alicia is better, at least not in PvP.


PvP is almost completely random. MC beat Nani, Nani beat MC, Huk beat Nani, Huk beat MC, Mc beat Huk, Alcia beat MC, Tod beat Alicia.

Anyone can beat anyoine in PvP. It means nothing.


Not so sure, But you have to admit, PvP is a fuck load more interesting these days, actually along with TvT starting to become my favourite matches where as before I couldn't stand watching them for the boredom.

WTF they're nothing like Carriers! Definitely more like Battlecruisers, but on ground, don't have lasers, shoot blue flames, move faster, don't cost gas, take up less supply, don't come out of a Starport, and weren't in BW. No idea where you got Carriers from...

What sports do the commentator say their names before and after every commericial.

Its quite annoying imo.

Pretty much every commentator says their names right when they com back from commercial. And before the commercial they always say something like "this is the NFL on Fox" or "Your watching the NBA on ABC"

Its just a little sign on and off, happens everywhere dude.
