Theres no shame losing to the players who made it to pool play as well like Drewbie Idra CruncheR Slush and Huk... You need to understand who the MLG pool and point system works. They are removing next season because it is broken and allows undeserving players (Gretorp, Machine) to be in pool play for too long. All of EG besides IdrA/Puma is mid-tier. That is just a fact, and I like EG in general. | ||

I don't think Axslav, StrifeCro, or LZ have even ever made it out of the open bracket at an MLG, and IncontroL is only in pool play because HuK didn't go to MLG Dallas in January or whenever . . . | ||

Interesting... The interesting thing about Destiny is that although it appears as if he only does one style, its not like it isn't adaptive. His style is so thoroughly understood that if there were things did too consistently, he wouldn't win. Destiny is in a way really similar to Philbot in WC3. Philbot was a professional WC3 player with some huge success is online leagues, and he would only use a single build order every game. He just knew how to adapt it to more situations than most people realized were possible. I had been thinking it is somewhat gimmicky, as a Protoss player myself, but the more I watch it, the more ways I see him react to a lot of different situations really well. For example, in game 2, Incontrol made quite a few HT. However, it was clear Destiny was really familiar/comfortable doing that dance of HT vs Infestor. He had a really good sense for the ranges, certainly more so than you see out of even a lot of other pro zergs. His consistent use of infestors has definitely allowed him to refine it, not just spam it the same over and over. | ||
