I think everyone here can pretty much agree rain didn't beat ret that last game ret beat himself

he knew what he was going on yet still he wasn't pro active about blocking his ramp and I would have like to see the evo at the natural to hinder hellion harass

ret should have won that game


lolwat, I don't "pretty much agree".

That's like saying "oh, my favorite player didn't take a fast enough third base or he would have won, the other person was just lucky". No, the other person won by capitalizing on the other person's failures. There is a winner and a loser, Rain was clearly the victor. But anyone who harasses Ret before the 20 minute mark while Ret makes nonstop drones and has about 4 lings 10 minutes into the game doesn't deserve a victory.


That's not quite what he said. Looking at the winner / loser is an incredibly simplistic way to look at how a game could have potentially turned out, which is the whole point of what he is talking about.

I didn't watch the game but it sounds like Ret made an obvious yet small mistake after scouting Rain's build, whereas, avoiding that, he would have been in a good position to win. Feel free to tell me if I'm wrong though, I'm just going off of secondhand information. It would be like if you nuked your own army after being 40 supply up and lost the game - would you still be saying "hey, guys, c'mon there is a winner and a loser the winner clearly deserved the win"? I mean at some point you have to say, okay this guy was in a good position to win but he really botched it in a way that normally he doesn't allow to happen.

If it was one BFH attack I might agree with you, but Rain went in like 5 times. After the first or second you should get some better defense.


Well, yeah, but that kind of goes back to the point of Ret losing the game for himself doesn't it? Or are people thinking that the decision from Rain to come back with hellions a 4th and 5th time was intelligent play? Don't mean to sound demeaning, legitimately wondering

I am in Australia atm and have no idea what time it is in the US or what time MLG will stop, so I'm gonna ask you kind forum-goers what time will MLG be finishing up tonight? I was hoping WhiteRa wouldn't have to play any more games cause he must be pretty wrecked, whereas drewbie has played what 4 best of 3s? Well if Ra has to play tonight hopefully he will tear shit up and be able to take a well deserved break after. Gogogo WhiteRa!

LAST GAME for today

DRG after finding out he's playing MVP: "ARGHHHHH!". MVP's reaction after: "Bye bye!"

DRG afraid of playing MVP!?

DRG just tweeted this too but translate completely botches it, dunno if related.
시차란거... 나한텐 해당 안될줄알앗다... 하지만 나도 사람이엇다...


Can't say I blame him. He is the 2 time GSL champion.


No, it's just MVP's TvZ is still considered top 3, probably top 2 in Korea. His TvP might be shaky, and his TvT isn't unbeatable anymore, but his TvZ is still scary as hell.

Look at this: http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft2/SAGAcity_Invitational_2011 which happened a month ago.


And you also can't forget that he has IMNestea and IMLosira to practice with xD I think DRG is kind of screwed tbh.

After that Rain let his natural get devastated for absolutely no reason.
