no.

Yeah just no.

Nerchio is good but hes still young. For now ret is the best EU zerg.


Ret is prolly top 5 zerg in the world in this form, behind NesTea/Losira/DRG and I personally think he's better than idra, coca is pretty good also.


Dimaga just won Assembly so right now he's maybe slightly ahead of Ret in my book. And I'm sure there are quite a few korean zergs that are better.


I named all the top korean zergs. That's true Dimaga is up there also, so it's like NesTea/Losira/DRG/Dimaga/Ret/idra/coca(?) can't think of any other zergs from gsl that have shown more skill than Ret or Dimaga

Sen deserves to be in there as well. But a lot of unknown zergs from Korea are really good as well. (Did you see Seal against Bomber?) Just look at the WCG Korea Qualifiers. So many good players who don't get a lot of air time. And of course we are a little biased towards foreigners.

why are they interviewing the loser?


because why not?


Because there's a reason why this doesn't happen in other sports/events?


It happens all the time?


No it doesn't.


do you actually watch other sports?


Yes, and play them. If you've competed in anything serious your entire life you would know that a lot of people don't want to be interviewed straight after a defeat. Adrenaline is still going through you, you've put a lot of emotion and effort into to the game you've just lost. You're not really thinking straight or composed.

Seriously, pro gamers within in the community have commented on this many times. And always say they'd want at least a few minutes to calm down and compose themselves.


What kind of sport does not interview the loser(s)?


They usually interview them after they've had time to at least compose themselves. Go down the tunnel, have a talk down from the coach etc... You don't exactly see them sticking a mic infront of the players while they are on the pitch. That's for the winners. And they don't HAVE to give interviews either unlike the coaches, it's to their discretion whether they want to or not. Very often in sports you will ask somebody for an interview and they'll say no not now. I know this because i write a sports column in my local teams programme.

Why did they use the blizzard shattered temple? Close position.....................


Because it's the BLIZZARD battle.net invitational.


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

Meta is out of the ladder pool.


in the tournament, they are using mlg metalopolis, not the blizz version. I dont even know what the hell made you think about the ladder in that conversation. please dont talk like an ignorant, in which case, just dont post.


The point that was being made is that all the maps that are currently in the ladder pool, Blizzard wants to show the ladder versions of the maps. Metalopolis is not in the ladder pool, so it doesn't do anything for them to use the original version.

(please dont talk like an ignorant, in which case, just dont post :p)


They are using season 2 maps anyways so Metalopolis is legit. Whether we like it or not the tournament organizer chose it that way. So lets just chill about this

Naniwa is a player that practices maybe 10 hours on day on about 5 different maps, because he expects these maps to be the ones he has to play during events. If an event uses one of these map but with a terribly different design then it's sort of expected that players get pissed if they feel it really affected their series. Of course whether it actually did is a different question, but it might not be so easy to be completely rational after taking a loss in something you are extremely dedicated and passionate about.

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...


Can't you read?

He completely gave away ~10 sentries, that's not getting outplayed, that's him screwing himself over.

If i kill my own hatch at the beginning of the game, that's not getting outplayed.


Killing your own hatch can be a misclick

Losing 8 sentries because you are too slow to force field is naniwa playing really badly.


Which is why it's nani fucking himself over, not getting outplayed.


If you fuck yourself over, and the other person wins because of this, doesn't that mean the other person played better. Granted, nani may have played badly and ret just played standard, but this means nani got outplayed. Being outplayed does not mean that you have to get out-macroed or out-thought, you can just make less mistakes and outplay someone.
