Creates a shield that lasts 5 seconds (or 50% of the Death Knight's health, which is around 60k HP) that prevents CC and reduces incoming magic damage by 75%. AMZ - Anti-Magic Zone, Death Knight skill. Creates a big purple bubble that lasts 30 seconds that reduces spell damage to friendly members inside it by 75%. Lasts a certain amount of HP before it disappears. Lichborne - Death Knight skill. Makes the Death Knight Undead, which makes him immune to charm, fear and sleep effects. Also allows him to heal himself with Death Coil. Fear - Warlock skill, caused by Fear, Death Coil and Howl of Terror. Forces anyone hit by it to wander around, unable to attack or cast or control their character until it wears off or they are attacked. Sheep - Polymorph, Mage skill. Turns the target into an animal, where they regenerate their HP quickly, but are unable to cast skills, attack or control their character. Breaks on damage. Hex - A polymorph-type skill, Shaman skill. Does the same thing as Polymorph except it doesn't regenerate their HP. Counterspell - Multiple spells cause this. Interrupts the current spell being cast and makes it so the person who is counterspelled cannot cast spells from that school (e.g. a Mage who has his Frostbolt counterspelled cannot cast Frost spells for a certain amount of time). Trinket - A 2-minute cooldown item that breaks any sort of crowd control (Hex, Fear, Sheep, Silence, etc.) on you. If I'm not mistaken, the finals are Shadowcleave (Shaman, Death Knight, Warlock) vs. Wizardcleave (Shaman, Mage, Warlock) so anything listed before is still relevant. This is for people who haven't played WoW before. I can't guarantee the quality of the matches, as I personally don't think WoW is a great spectator sport, but just in case you want to know what the hell the commentators are talking about. | ||

Thorpush was decent when repair genereated no threat. Other then that thats total non-sense. And no i don't count Ravens/Banshees as high tier Units. | ||

Tarson forgot siege mode, didn't cloak his banshee's after he picked off an observer (which after that he had quite alot of time to do damage before Naniwa's two other obs came over), and did he really have a raven? | ||

Just because a unit is T1 doesn't make it OP if it can be cost effective against T3, otherwise we should start complaining about Zergling/Zealot vs Thor, etc. It is irrelevant, game is balanced anyway, this is the way it is designed that Terran bio can be used all game provided that you upgrade and add ghosts/vikings to the mix. The same thing can be said for zerglings, zealots, stalkers, roaches are all used in the late game by their respective races, and are all cost effective against something T3. | ||

How can one feel so bad yet so great at the same time :D Feel really bad for Thorzain but real happy for Naniwa - I have a feeling that's a win he's been looking for for a while That being said, Naniwa deserved to win, even though Thorzain played excellently with his back against the wall. Edit: It felt like Waldner vs Applegren in 1982. | ||
