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
Basically just be respectful. Aside from that, enjoy the games, make sure you bring an umbrella and have some delicious waffles! (#) |
Foreigner Team Update:
Here are the results by teams from Pool Play. Team Kills excluded.
Dig - 20-10 - w/ 1 match to go
RGN - 11-7 - w/ 2 matches to go
EG - 19-26 - w/ 2 matches to go
Liquid - 11-19 - w/ 3 matches to go
FXO - 0-10
coL/coLMVP - 16-10 w/ 3 matches to go
Fnatic - 5-5 w/ 1 match to go
coLMVP features 2 members of team MVP, so that has benefited them, so Dig clearly takes the title of best performing "true" foreigner team with Select, Nani, and Sjow. EG has improved overall thanks to Puma and HuK's better performances thus far. Liquid has not improved significantly from day 1, unfortunately.

I guess it wasn't just poor crowd audio, the Raleigh crowd is just flat. :\

Why are Korean protosses unable to play safe games ? I am so much more impressed by Mana and even HasuObs and White-ra in PvT than basically every Korean Protoss, maybe except MC, but even he does stupid stuff. right, and its not maybe MC, MC kicked selects terran ass to the moon recently. That's what happens if you play unsafe and your opponent doesn't punish you. I didn't watch those games at IEM but your argument is still stupid. MC takes a lot of risks at times probably because he feels he needs to (otherwise why do it?) You can't play safe in PvT and win. The reason these guys take risks is obvious - you just get steamrolled otherwise. Protoss - in PvT especially - is incredibly fragile. You have to rely on things like nailing perfect FFs just to stay even at times, so when it fails you look like a fool. I'm really hoping Blizz gives toss some attention in HotS. I won't say the race is UP, but it's pretty terribly designed. We've been able to coast on raw power for a while, but with recent buffs to Z and the metagame shift/player improvements vT, it's hard to win. The problem is that other side of the coin...when Protoss *does* nail those perfect FFs etc.. Dunno maybe the skill level just needs to increase There's so much to improve on in toss play. Despite common perception I'd say there's much more than Terran can improve on in most cases.
The problem then is that it's very hard to be consistent as toss. One misplaced FF, one lucky EMP, one lag spike, is all it takes to lose.
Regardless, not the thread to be talking about this in.

you didnt watch those games and argue my argument is stupid. nice.
ofc MC takes risks, calculated risks to take map controll, getting scouting info etc. he is not hiding in his base till 160 before he starts getting agressive.

They dropped 2 games this tourney. That means they've dropped 3 over the past 3 tourneys. Fucking ridiculous.
