MLG Raleigh Day 1 BLUE Live Report Thread - Page 21

Obligatory public note for all large tournament threads:

The following is a list of behaviors that will get immediate bans:

1. Whining about stream
2. Bashing other games
3. Flaming other users
4. Bashing players
5. Complaining about imbalance.

It is in no way complete. Keep in mind that there's a difference between pointing out that the SC2 and CoD streams were switched and whining about it (same thing on pointing out/asking about stream lag and whining about it, etc.). Also, just because you post something and aren't immediately banned for it doesn't mean you won't get caught. We'll be going through this thread very carefully.

That being said, enjoy today's games!

So apparently TLO was watching Idra vs Bomber from the crowd and missed his first match. Starting off 0-2... WOOPS!

I can't remember the last time Machine won a series. Maybe I am not watching enough games with him, but I honestly can't remember him winning.


Sc2 has not been Machine's sport thus far. He has done solidly in team play, he had good success season 1 of MLG, but no other great tournament breakouts, sadly. He has historically been a little overshadowed by iNc, so I am not so surprised that he has just been solid in SC2 and nothing more.

im pretty sure you are correct - I believe Dustin Browder said so in an interview (with Sen?) not long ago


Interview with CatZ I'm pretty sure. CatZ really wanted to push the point of making Spines build faster.

Well to be honest, seeing how DRG just defended it easy peasy really, they could actually reduce the spine building time.

In that line of thinking, they should nerf zerg all around, seeing how Nestea won GSL July easy peasy

Also if it became a problem, they could just tag a "An overlord must've been made to make a spinecrawler" on or something of the sorts like the rax/supply depot.

Well, you have an ovie at the start of the game though i get what you're saying, but a pool is already mandatory. Just reducing the build time slightly would be more effective imo.

Why can't MLG only DQ the first game and have TLO start 0-1 instead of DQing both if he's only a bit late? That's still a heavy enough punishment to discourage being late.

I think that's why top zergs aren't 15 hatching nowadays. It's pretty much a BO loss to 7 pool.

Kinda curious why Slush wouldn't place one of the spines just above DRG's pool (hugging the hatch) to give it less area for drones to surround it, but he certainly knows better than I do.

I disagree, I don't really think Nestea is that impressive (my point of view guys). And I think he got crushed by MVP too right?

And of course, it's only (WAIT A SEC: HOTBID AND TYLER WOO!!!) one game. But i was theorizing.

Yeah true. Wow. A year of playing zerg and that didn't dawn on me. Probably wouldn't be that big of a problem anyway, because you could build a quick defensive spinecrawler as well as soon as you scouted a 6pool.

This is not correct. A 15hatch can reset to a slight edge against a 7 pool + 2 spine. The 9 pool + 2 spine all drone pull is much more of a BO loss. Besides, if you want to 15, you should be scouting on 9/10 in 2 player or Shak, Temple, etc where you can determine precisely where the enemy Z is.
