In this thread (and this thread only,) Linkin Park is emo.

These games are hilarious. Every one is more ridiculous than the last. And it will all be capped by the hilarious punchline of a 5 way tie. Please oh please....



I hope we see another 5 way tie afterwards, and then like boxers heading into the 9th round, players start dropping to like 50 APM or super cheesing, or super-long stalemate macro games where no one wants to attack.

Fixed it for you Plexa

(As "cool" as it is that a 5 way tie might happen...yeah it's not like we're seeing an extension on a game between MVP and Nestea...soooo tiebreaker will just cause me to close Gom Player =/ )

taeja 2-1
trickster 2-1
mkp 2-2
jyp 1-2
violet 1-2

violet vs taeja
trickster vs jyp

taeja and trickster control their own chances, a win for either puts them at 3-1 and in Code S
violet and jyp can lose and guarantee themselves code A

if only one player claims a spot in code S ^, there will be a 3-way tie at 2-2
if neither player claims a spot in code S, $$$$$ 5-way tie for the restart

At this point I am feeling that marines and tanks + what ever the hell terran wants from the starport is actually just as deadly as the standard 1/1/1. I haven't seen any of this stuff help even once still when executed well.

Yeah, every day you see a new 1-1-1 build emerge from no where, it seems like the more that Terran 1-1-1 the more cheeses they find they can do >_>

Didn't JYP cheese as well?


It's supposed to be a counter to a 1/1/1, except MKP did a different variation on it. MKP has tried it vs both Toss, and is generally relying on a huge number of 1base plays as a crutch nowadays.


Ah ok. Did not know that.


For the record I used to be a huge MKP fan, but his refusal to adapt to current trends in most match ups, and his increasingly heavy reliance on one basing after going through a period of great macro games at the start of the year has just steadily turned me off.

On the plus side for the Protoss fans, you either get 1 more toss guaranteed to be in Code S, or you get a tiebreak with none of them out, so it's not all doom and gloom just yet.


I guess that's true but I'm sure almost all of us would prefer JYP to Trickster.


Yeah, it's pretty obvious which Toss is going to bring the more exciting and innovative play to Code S. Sadly Trickster being cheesy seems to be working more than good ol' macro-innovation ><


This entire group has been cheesy.

Tester is not one more Toss in code S, it is one toss that retains code s, but we should be thankful even for that


Honestly at this point, just from a gsl fan perspective, I'm grateful for every guy who does not play terran and plays in code s, even if it's a non code s caliber player like tester.

If only one third of your posts were decent...

I'm sorry, but PvT and PvP currently are 1 base fests, PvZ is terrible because Protosses seem at a loss for a standard good opening, and TvT is... Well, TvT. It's a matter of taste on this one I agree, but the BFH on BFH trend is uninteresting to me.

Out of curiosity, is there a limit to the number of rounds of tiebreakers there can be? I mean, there has to be a limit to (1) how much they can cast/play in a single day, and (2) how many rounds they can play (assuming we are very lucky/unlucky to keep reaching tiebreakers)


Theoretically, they could go on forever.


Wow I thought there will be a limit to the no of rounds before they introduce some form of sudden death/alternate format. Like in soccer, after a set amount of extra time, it goes straight to penalty kicks.

Nope we just keep going around and around and around. And around and around and around. And around and around and around.

If today unseats yesterdays longest cast record.. just one day after it was set..

It's just the evolution of the game, don't know how that's on the shoulders of Blizz, they probably wanna see if players will work the game out of this trend before they start tossin changes everywhere.

Obviously if it takes way too long GOMTV will come up with something to stop the ties.

Would you say terran has viable late game options against a Zerg who hasn't had his economy hampered?

When should the terran attack?
