Im obviously exaggerating Arguably the most exciting thing in the foreigner SC2 scene right now is an underdog foreign white dude topple a Korean. If either foreigners actually did by any stretch manage to take out their Korean opponent, it would fulfill someone's fantasy because of the how nationalistic everyone is about this game's tournament scene. | ||

I understand that during these tournaments sponsored by large corporations they have to show lots of different games and lots of advertisements, but it really hurts the viewer experience. I think the long-ish breaks are fine, its tough to really prevent them altogether at a live tourney, but when there is mixed content on a stream it really gets confusing and hurts the viewer count I think. This is not a tournament with advertisements... it's a trade-fair with a tournament | ||

MC basically figured out mana isn't going to attack him so he gets his expo earlier every time and he looked so comfortable that entire game. Easy to outmetagame someone like that If mana attacked in Mc could stop mana with perfect ffs and micro, but of course that is super hard to do. It is simple, Mc won the mind game and he is more confident about his skills than his opponents as usual. | ||

The attitude of 'we won a few games, we can be proud of ourselves that we took 3rd instead of 7th' is just the complete wrong attitude. Making excuses such as 'MC blink luck, puma stim luck, puma luck not facing mana, Socke unlucky...' gets old quickly and instead you should be asking, why did MC and Puma 6-0 there way through their games, with not 1 game being close except game 1 vs mana (with there being 0% to lose, unless lose army). | ||

I think he meant like a Winners finals (MC vs Puma), and a 2nd, 3rd placing (Puma vs MaNa) which doesn't make sense. | ||
