Because it's the BLIZZARD battle.net invitational.


but they are using MLG metalopilis...your point?

Meta is out of the ladder pool.


for what? 5 days? Didn't they get invites based on season 2 performance anyway?

Naniwa should have just never attacked and just stoped the 3rd for Ret with proxy pylons and warp-ins while taking his 3rd in the corner, saved with cannons while teching up to a 200 supply army. That is the real trouble for Zergs on closepositions not the early timing pressure, with warpgate the timing on bigs maps isnt much later anyway.

naniwa is an idiot, before the game started he wrote "hehe" in the ingame chat after he found out that close position is possible(rotterdam mentioned it). Now after he lost he whines. Pretty lame imo.

Now I understand why they don't interview the loser of a match. Seems so brutal to do so. Hope Nani battles through that lower bracket.

Nani got outplayed on g3. While I agree it's a shit map, don't bring up that excuse for losing.


He donated ~10 sentries, he fucked himself, he wasn't outplayed the slightest.


So isn't that the definition of getting outplayed? Ret played better than Naniwa, therefore Ret outplayed him...

Naniwa's fault for going for a 7 gate timing attack and losing to the common counter of burrowed roaches. Not the map or close pos fault, his fault.

I thought it happened all the time in pro sports. I know at least in professional soccer (football) it does.

No it's double elimination. He is in the consolation bracket now.

Except that unlike Blink it can be completely neutralised by the presence of detection. Opportunities to use burrow micro to it's fullest are few and far between.


Ret didn't use burrow micro in the sense you want to think he did. He just used it to wait for force fields.

The problem with Burrow is that when you burrow you can take damage during the animation. With Blink you take 0 damage during the animation.

Burrow will never be Blink.

To be fair Roaches are dirt cheap.


Mmm speed/burrow upgrade included?


That doesn't make any difference if they're dirt cheap. They take damage during the animation, Stalkers don't. It renders the burrow micro we'd like to have pretty useless unless they just don't have detection.


well to be fair with the animation.. they do have alot of hp to room that micro
There is no rest in the dark realm.

Yes, just like charge does not make zealots more expensive.

But ofc burrow will probably never be used like blink.
