Alright, its truly time to stop whining. Stop caster bashing also. Be warned. |
Btw. is anyone betting ? or is there a betting thread ?
i´m putting a few bucks on pinnaclesports ( http://www.pinnaclesports.com/League/E Sports/SC2 MLG/1/Lines.aspx ).
My Bets :
IdrA vs SjoW (+1.5) for Match. 1.704
SLush (+1.5) vs Socke for Match. 1.671
RET vs MMA for Match. 1.329
CrunCher (+1.5) vs IdrA for Match. 2.140
GanZi vs Kiwikaki for Match. 1.337 <<<<<< took this one just for the epic odds :D
Rain vs MMA for Match. 1.345
Tyler vs DongRaeGu for Match. 1.143
Kiwikaki vs Moonan for Match. 1.725
Any Thoughts on the outstanding pets @ Pinnacle ?

Can someone please explain Slush's TvZ style we've seen at this MLG?
- Basically no creep spread
- Double roach warren but doesn't timing attack when upgrade(s) finish, seems to be enough time for both roach upgrades to finish from one warren
- No attack/armor upgrades until very late
- No transition to hive
- No capacity for pressure
- No macro (Rain takes both his 3rd and 4th before Slush)
I'm a Terran player, but I don't understand how this style can win, or what it is supposed to achieve.

Rain beats Slush while engaging with half his army...

I think he's just playing poorly. So much energy on the queens. missed a bunch of injects

He wins by the Terran not realising he is massing up roaches. It is a massive gamble. Pretty bad build though. He is a hugely overrated player. Finishing high up in old MLGs wasn't hard yo.

Consistent top 8s disagree with you...I think it was just 1 bad game for him.

He finished 5th last MLG, and that had Koreans in it too so I don't what constitutes "old MLGs", he's been pretty consistent.
He is playing pretty badly right now though.

I believe he placed 5th @ last MLG as well? Behind the Koreans & IdrA afaik. He isn't overrated imo, at least I never see him get any credit, while he definitely deserves some.
