Cant believe theres so much hate in these threads while we're so blessed with a wonderful event, with wonderful games. Last warning, whine and insult the players or commentators? See you.

I don't see how people can complain about an SC2 TvT finals. If anyone has watched a ZvZ finals in a BW OSL or MSL, then you can watch fucking anything. Nothing worse than BW ZvZ, and that's pretty much an objective fact.
A sound mind in a sound body, is a short, but full description of a happy state in this World: he that has these two, has little more to wish for; and he that wants either of them, will be little the better for anything else.

Other then this I love MLG and the games where I can see my favorite players compete with great casting / production.



Thank god, all major tournies started inviting Koreans.
I simply don't watch when a tour is consisted only by foreigns.


Same,. It's like watching minor league baseball when its all foreigners, and watching Major league baseball when watching GSL. I prefer a mix of both players, however.

i'm pretty sure the people that hate tvts are the terrans, because of how long/frustrating/tiring/confusing/HARD tvt is

just like how zergs hate zvz and protoss hate pvp
i actually really enjoy tvt, as a protoss myself


There was probably 15-20 posts in the last 10pages or so calling tvt a coinflip, which is why I asked where people got this idea since it's so wrong

TvT is one of the most stable matchups out there, since both races have to get constant scv and unit production (instead of one or the other iow: a coinflip) and no lack of defender's advantage.

It basically means we're ensured a midgame.

People are just being really stupid thinking it's a bad mirror.

DRG loses to MVP and MMA, suddenly he's overrated. LOL, people really have no idea what they're talking about. DRG may be Code B, but he clearly exhibits play capable of hanging with Code S-caliber players.


I don't see anyone saying he isn't Code S quality, but people treating him like a god when he has similar results to MMA makes him overrated (not because of the comparison to MMA, but because he is treated like the best player in the world when he's not)

Yes he is a VERY solid player who has a lot of potential... I don't see anyone denying that.


He's treated as a top 5 zerg player in the world, because he probably is.

Terrans make up over 50% of Code S, so it's hard to say whether MMA is similarly in the highest echelon of them (he probably is) because there's Bomber, Mvp, Byun, Clide, MKP, sC, Ryung, etc. etc.

This. MMA and DRG are about equal. But because there are about a billion incredible Terran players in Korea, and Zerg have a few (ridiculously) good top tier players, DRG gets all the attention. For me, in Zerg rankings it goes Nestea, who is a long way above Losira, who is a long way above DRG.


DRG isn't overrated so to speak, just a bit overhyped up for this tournament. MMA and DRG from what I've seen are pretty much equal in skill. MVP is just a whole step above DRG, but that's a given granted he's a 2 time gsl champ.


Overrated and overhyped are pretty much synonymous. Either way, I just hope people stop treating him like a god, and start treating him like a really good up and coming zerg with a lot of potential.

It has raised my interest in MLG. Quite frankly if they didn't invite Koreans, MLG would be falling behind. People want to see the best. Thats why they stay up to ridiculous hours to watch GSL. Thats why NASL had 80,000 viewers for Puma vs MC. Its why DreamHack invited Koreans. They elevate the level of competition and give the best games.

IPL is boring to me now. I love the production and casters and love the foreign players, but its just not the same. I would say IPL is losing more interest than MLG.

Oh and MLG didn't bring any more Korean players over, other Koreans just decided to come over for Anaheim.

Ok. I guess people have different preferences. I love MLG and always watch everything and I don't watch GSL at all since I'm not interested in the Korean community.

I might be wrong on this but doesnt Koreans get their qualifying spot from previous events plus the 4 GSL invites effecively increasing the number by 4 every event since they always get top placements?

I think what tips it is the current metagame and the fact that there are so many Terrans with good skill working together to come up with crazy inventive shit.

Hahaha @ Incontrol and Machine still being seeded into pools for Raleigh. Drewbie too, if someone from the top 16 doesn't go.


?!

Why would Inc + Machine be seeded that high when they've both failed miserably, to the point of being completely outclassed, in two entire MLG events? Doesn't seem fair to the rest of the players just below on ranking points. The pools should have the top 20 skilled players in, its pretty boring when a player is there who just goes 0-5 every time.

Does someone has (or knows) an overview about how well each clan currently does in this MLG?
