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!

Ret 0-2? :/
They were close. Beter than a 1-1 where the win was close but the loss was horrid.

Being criticized by a player 1/1000th their skill is a joke That was never a good point to be made, I have no idea why people keep saying stuff like this. You can criticize something you yourself can't do, that's what art/music/movie critics do. Yeah but Lets be honest Artosis has made so many wrong calls that people should really take him with a grain of salt That's not about him 'calling' something. It's about Hongun not playing solid. Artosis is an expert commentator who watches everything starcraft for a living. If he says someone isn't playing solid, He ain't playing solid. He might still do well though (bitbybit-effect) but it's not going to last unless he seriously switches up his play. The game is still young, and there are still people high up who don't deserve to be there in comparison to many in code B. Except that he may as well be arguing that ice is hot in some of those HongUn series and that destroys his credibility on the subject. Hardly makes him an expert if he's going to say something that is completely wrong and untrue. Go back and watch HongUn vs. MC. Look for Artosis's comments. You can't take him serious on the issue and if you do then you probably would agree that ice is hot. Winning a PvP series is great and all but it doesn't make you good. Hongun takes way too many risks to be considered good, and the only reason he's considered good in Korea is that there are so few competitive Protoss there. Okay let's not pretend that HongUn isn't rank 13 in the GSL. He has won more than just a PvP series. What does that have to do to refute my statement? You cited his MC series, one of the most volatile matchups against a player that is very good. Winning that series doesn't make Hongun great. The fact that he's 13th ranked in the GSL means very little. Jinro is 16th and Sanzenith is 11th. Edit: Changed bad sentence structure If MC isn't a great protoss, who is? I don't see anybody better than him in the race. Puzzle, Genius, Alicia, Trickster, Tassadar, but he was once upon a time the best. MC won't even get through up/down if he continues playing as bad as he does lately.
What complete bullshit. MC is still far better than any of those.
MC won 2 games to clinch the win in GSTL this week.

Some people have begin to doubt MC as the Protoss President, even himself said that in an interview. However after the GSTL win he said that he is more confidient now then ever and the so many losses recently has been most of all sniping tactics on him early game.
However, I have no doubt that he is the best protoss in the world. So I agree with you.

I agree he has been slumping somewhat - for his standards at least, but there is noone else in Protoss that comes close to his consistency or level of play when MC is at his best - e.g. vs SeleCT at IEM recently.

Just watch the rebroadcast and skip to the time you wanna watch.
Some vods are categorized (VOD button on bottom right in the player)

So I want to watch the restream of the first match Idra vs. Bomber.
But on both stream it switches suddenly to Call of Duty and after that they show the second game of Idra vs. Bomber.
Do you guys have the same problem?

Wow! So just woke up and I see that Sjow won 2 - 0 vs IdrA and took a game off Bomber! Gogo Sjow!

that happened live they switched cod and sc2 stream for abit if there is a recording of cod stream u can prolly find first game there although its really short not very fun, and as it ends it switched back to sc2 stream from cod.

ah ok, thanks for the answer.
I skip this, because I already got spoilered and know the result because I didn't know it was the second game until it ended :D

I might just be an idiot, but maybe someone can help me with this. I have a silver pass and I'm trying to watch some vods, but it asks me for a voucher code which I can't find anywhere on my account. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Up top, right next to your profile there is a MLG League Membership, click that, scroll down a bit and the voucher code is there.

Hoping for naniwa imo :D

I've been look at that page and I'm not seeing anything, there's a header called "MLG League Member Benefits" with nothing under it though, is that where it should be? I only just got the pass/made an account so perhaps I just have to wait a little.
