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!

I've seen HuK play a lot and I know he can do better. He's probably exhausted, and maybe he is just not in a good mindset. Eitherway, this is the guy that's beat MMA, Nada, and other top koreans. HuK WHAIGHTINGGGGGG
He's saving all his energy to win this GSL.

Agreed
Seems like they want the foreign scene to die, and only the top 20 or so foreigners who can afford it to go live in korea, and turn sc2 into BW2.0

EG 0-8 in first 4 games. Ouch. I still believe in Demuslim tho, he seems to be in top form! Desmuslim vs Beastyq a few days ago in EGMC was so terrible. One of the worst game I've ever seen. I don't have much expectation in Desmuslim after his broken arm tbh I dunno, he's #1 grandmasters with a pretty beastly w/l ratio.
North American ladder is.. T_T

But since EG is going to Korea, shouldn't we sea how they react to Koreans? And look at what happened

Haters gonna hate. Ignore them and life would be so much simpler.
Oh wait, this is an LR thread. I lied.

EG going strong. Happy days :D Still recovering from EG crushing IEM? Well, 'EG crushing' makes it sound like all their players did well. Puma won, and HuK didn't make it out of the group stages. More like Puma crushing IEM.
EG has 3 solid/good players, so no idea why anyone would focus on the rest anyway
e: oh demuslim too

Look guys, we are no haters but EG has money, players and a house. We expect results, so 0-8 is worth mentioning.

Ok so why hasn't Tester officially changed his name back to Tester by now? It is a much better name... someone should have told him by now. it's because he hates the name, i believe it reminds him of his time in BW, where he was just a practice partner (a 'tester') for everyone else on his team.
Wow, I never actually realized that Tester was for that. Always liked the name and didn't understand why he changed it either, it's like having a well known brand and changing the name. But at least it makes more sense now.

What was so bad about that series?
Demuslim won, against great TvT player in Beastyqt. Also beat Kas in TvT recently as well, Kas being a TvT beast.
His TvP has always been good. His TvZ has improved so much, with new Mech ghost styles being added as well as standard play. 80% win rate, rank 1 NA isn't too easy.

so what's the other game for pool D? should be going on right now i think?

So how is that EG training house going? You see the weightlifting video? The size of those arms should suggest its going great. Also the size of Huk's contract. As to whether $$ can buy championships in SC2, testing is in progress this weekend.
i think EG isnt looking to buy tourns they want highly known players with good buzz, no matter how much idra loses hes still more profitable for EG than who ever wins this MLG because he has such a huge fan base.... same for iNcontrol and Huk

Kiwikaki wins 2-0 against Nada.. WoW Not really suprised. Nada is decent, but no where near the other Terrans that had been coming over from Korea (MVP, Bomber, MMA) Kiwi looked great vs MMA last time as well. He lost but it was really close. Just some small things that piled up. But he looks great today. Protoss rediscovering colossi after a long period of templar play. Terran players don't know how to play against that anymore (all recent successful PvTers are back to using colossi)
If your colossus bay gets scouted your in for a world of pain
Nada both games did a build that is extremely safe against any kind of 6 gate or something like that and from than on went for medivacs,where as kiwi already had 2 colossus out at that point with more incoming.
Colossus off 2 base is pretty risky play,but it payed off in this situation.

Only person who uses Hydra's really well is IdrA with his hydra drop and hydra nydus push.
What? LOL!! Idra started using the Hydra drop after July used it against MC on Terminus at Code S Finals. Idra started using Hydra Nydus play after Losira used it against MC on Taldarim at MLG. Idra is NOT an innovative player.
Yea I think this is true actually, he said it himself in that interview with Carmac that he's not a particularly creative player....

sjow vs bomber or drg-trickster, decisions decisions.
Sjow has good TvT and can take games from random koreans, but Bomber is a bit much.
DRG -Trickster all the way.

Huk and Idra are the only ones who have winning potential right now on EG. Just because they lost their first set doesn't mean they are trash players. Give them a chance.
edit: Puma too

Because its funny. Calm down man, criticising EG is not equal to stopping esports growth
