guys can someone explain to me Drewbie's strat? Why did he not expand at all?


I have no clue what he was doing.

He's usually macro oriented.

I think nerves, was visibly upset when he GG'd.

Choked that ret.
Pity those blueflames are ridiculous early game.

I hear that ovies are good for scouting the hallway, but that could just be rumors.



add that to the 50 other things hes handling. 1 mistake and he chews through 20-30 drones?
Every single zerg is getting obliterated by this opening. Don't make roaches? Dead. Make roaches? Get forced into making them the entire game which makes the marine/tank followup a lock. it's been said a billion times before, but a flamethrowing motorcycle that costs no gas. And let's upgrade the shit out of it with some gangster blue flames.

There are alot of options the zerg has to do the same amount of damage to workers, but none of them come out nearly as fast and they tend to be 'more fragile' (infestors or bane drops). That kind of pressure so early in the match just lends itself to mistakes down the road.


Did we not just have a ZvZ final in GSL? OH RIGHT THERE ARE NO TERRANS ALLOWED IN THE GSL.



Dawg, over half of code S next season is Terran.

Could sarcasm be any more obvious?


Well, to be fair, SC history has always been terran favoured. 4/5 bonjwas are terran, now >50% of GSL players are terran. It's history rewritten.

At the very top the line is thinner though, Nestea, MC and MVP are still the top 3 players imo, and between them it would always be a tough call.

It's not a tough call at all. Nestea is clearly the best. But according to TL Nestea is imba and Zerg is SOO underpowered.


Hmmm... I'd agree NesTea is the best but they'd be very close series. For instance, MVP's TvP ain't so good so MC might have a decent chance (even though MC's PvT is less than stellar), while NesTea would probably roll MC, and get owned by MVP as per usual. It's a closer triumvirate than it looks like.


MVP is quite bad at TvP relatively speaking. Kiwikaki took a game off him and protosses are what sent him into Code A. MC probably has the best, or at least one of the best, PvT's in the world so that either says a lot about other Korean protosses or says a lot about the matchup at that level.


Alicia has better PvT than MC. MC's always been very shaky in PvT, although lately he seems to be recovering with heavy gateway play. I still think he'd have good chances vs MVP though, since his TvP is by far his worst matchup. All in all, imo

NesTea > MC > MVP > NesTea

The top 3 are really close in skill, so it's a tough call. NesTea wins by consistency though.

just a thought. what happens if Rain should win? he has a 2 season ban from GSL for giving up his code S spot, so... would it just go to 2nd?


whoever's eligible in the top 3.

no idea if none of the 3 are eligible though.


If Top 3 end up MVP, Huk & Rain, then there's no Code S spot being given out.

Seriously.


i would lol if this ends up happening

It can't be just Koreans. GSL made the deal with MLG to get foreigners in their tournament. They want don't care about having more Koreans.

Dustin is there yes, when DjWheat said idra plays on Low and ultra textures he can see "invisible" units easier he actually said , oh nooooo according to MLG Staff


What the... Is this for real? Dustin Browder had never heard of that before? It's been common knowledge for like a year.

It's scary to think that Blizzard can be that uniformed


It's more like oh nooo now everyone knows that bug.

Day9's analysis has been really bad this MLG. I mean, I love the guy, but that is the 4th time he mentioned White Ra's "4gate opening". He 1gate expo'd Day9.



Dude, hes been casting all day with like, no breaks :/ I think hes allowed to make a few mistakes here and there and to be honest 4 gates following total after 1 gate FE is really really weird. its usually 3 gates 1 forge with armour ups into chargelots


Not really. It would be a mistake imo to go for tech like that when his opponent wasn't expanding and was putting pressure on, the extra gate was the right choice.

One has to. The group selections are tomorrow night. Someone from MLG must get Code S.


pretty sure rain isnt in code s anymore. so he would get it.

He's been banned, prett ysure he can't get it.

wait why?


He didn't show up for the group nominations. He's banned for 2 GSLs i think.


Well, he's left korea to live in the US with his dad, hence why he joined fnatic, I don't think he gives a shit about code S

Why are we immediately crying imbalance? Lets give Zergs some time to try and solve it first. If all the upcoming GSL TvZs turn into marine/hellion drops then we'll revisit the subject.

I do feel bad for Drewbie but Cruncher deserves any booing he gets. Wish I saw it.


I don't understand the Cruncher hate. A bunch of bitter jealous nerds if you ask me.


...jealous of cruncher? in what world would this happen?

Tyler won 2-0 vs ThisIsJimmy. Next he has Cruncher.

Also, sucks that we have MVP vs DRG and Rain vs Boxer. Two better players matched up first

Very different i think. No one booed drewbie here. It's not like the crowd hated him. White-ra is just always the sentimental favourite.

I'm not gonna go with the "ruining esports" thing, but booing on people is just... not good at all imo. I don't mind IdrA not shaking hands, not beeing manner, but when the crowd boos on a player that really ruins the mood.
