Poor iNka... Ret vs NightEnD and Strelok vs mOOnGLaDe look like some nice games! Ret FIGHTING!!
|
Let's go SeleCT and mOOnGLaDe!
Gonna be tough for iNcontrol, Sen is a beast.

One-sided games today... Although Nightend could put up a fight.

I thought so. Who gonna surprise? Inka does.

If iNka beats SeleCT, it will be a huge upset. SeleCT's TvP is feared by many. The way iNka played game one, it looks like he will be able to do it.
|
Two can play the all in game.
Just 1-1-1 him SeleCT ;P
|
Is it just me or are Gretorp and Lz pretty biased towards Inka here?
Nice game nevertheless, now try beating Select in a macro game.

No, Grederp is always biased because he doesn't know how to read the game.
|
Is anyone else having trouble getting the nasl site to load right now?
|
Yeah, NASL won't load for me either.
Edit: Thanks Viking that works!
|
Yeah, the site seems to be down, but the stream is still up. Just go to the stream on TL.

Well I missed the first game so I can't say about whether they were biased that game or not but iNkA used to be on EG so I wouldn't be surprised if him and Lz were still friends so that might have something to do with it for him at least if he was biased.
|
How did Inka manage to win game one? That's great for him! Taking a game off select is not an easy task.

Select will be lagging hardcore for this.
|
Wow... Select's micro and reaction time is pretty bad right now. I suppose it's the lag, but it's kind of depressing to watch this.
|
last week they interviewed select and it looked like he was still home. i'm assuming when this match was played he must be in korea though? he definitely looks like he's lagging, a lot of easy EMPs missed, etc
|
select is lagging really hard...he's having to presplit every battle
|
Whats up with Select? Really sloppy macro.
|
Selects play this game is so much different than against Alicia. It is almost like he is lagging badly.
|
This just has to be lag
|
Kind of sad to watch Select try to play without being able to micro... weird that the casters are avoiding mentioning it, although I guess it makes sense, it makes their casting seem super-biased. (to be fair, they probably are biased.)
|
They never mention lag. They didnt even talk about it after Fenix complained ingame. Just ignored it.
Its not as if they can do anything about it tho, so i cant blame them.

Hero also dismantled MKP in the WCG. That was an impressive PVT ( and i am a MKP fan).
|
idk why they are hyping up the match so much...select is obviously lagging they could at least mention it instead of only complimenting Inka on his play. It's ridiculous how the Koreans can deal with the lag and still win...shows just how big the gap is.
|
I didn't see the first game, however the second was pretty good. If lag was one of the reasons for many of SeleCT's mishaps like this thread suggests, I feel bad for him 
Regardless, I really did not expect these results o_O
|
If Inka won that because of lag, he still looked impressive doing it.
And for the people blaming the casters for not mentioning lag... You really think they're going to advertise the lag?
|
GG's
Btw, small error in OP. Maps played were Belshir Beach and ST, not dual sight ^^.
|
Just tuned in, what happened? How did SeleCT lose to inka
|
was this played on patch 1.4?
|
lag decided the game. but even without it, inka played better than expected. maybe hes finally putting time in lol, he could be a beast if he ever had any motivation.

over/under on how quickly incontrol loses to sen?
|
I hope Sen doesn't play like he did vs SeleCT last week, if he plays like the Sen we all know and love he can win no problem.
|
Did Incontrol kill one of the fish things with his scouting probe? Why so cruel?
|
Incontrol going for a cannon rush. Come on incontrol there is other builds then DT cannon rush and Voidray cheese
Edit: God, Im speechless

20 lings and incontrol dies :X

I haven't won with a zergling runby since BW, guess its viable with the new forge expand build protoss use with no defense other than 1-2 cannons.

Once that pylon got cancelled, you know he was preoccupied in thinking about where he was going to place his DT shrine down and the lings got into his base, ending the game in less than 6 minutes. We've all been there.

That was actually amazing timing by sen. He probably assumed it wouldn't be an artosis pylon so going for the cyber core is very smart. I'm impressed his baneling bust hit right before warpgates finished. I'm assuming that was not a coincidence.

Your assumption that "you just can't lock your base airtight" is wrong. It's just not ridiculously easy
I agree it could be effective in a lot of situations where it isn't used, but that's because its risky. If you go for fast gas for speed, invest in the lings, and get the lings across the map, your opponent's sim city could have changed or more cannons could be built and you could essentially lose the game instantly by being too far behind.

Well, that whole series took all of like 11 minutes. It's all good. Incontrol will talk a bunch of shit about people hating on him and talk about how he is refocusing his play and has a new mindset training in the EG house, then will cannon/DT rush on his way to another stunning MLG finish.

man, commentary superlatives really take away from when people actually ARE fantastic. T.T

I think Sen intended to hit the Cyber Core. Don't know why, but the way he was positioning (running the banelings inwards into cannon fire and then busting) made it seem obvious.

Can you do a full block on that map? On most maps protosses do a full block and just bust down their forge or gate when they're moving out.

It's sometimes hard to tell whether Incontrol was being sarcastic or not, given his tendency to write long gm messages at the end of games, but I imagine he was probably frustrated that the games never went to macro mode. The first game, where his build wasn't really a cheese build (whether he put down that pylon + cannon wasn't essential), Sen won with a quick zergling runby, and the second game, where Sen was ahead after holding the cannon rush, could've transitioned into a macro game but for Sen's decision to baneling bust.
Both of these losses were Incontrol's fault, mind you. He was probably just venting.
|
This is a good time killer while waiting for WCG Korea

i want incontrol to win, even though im a zerg... but damn, it seems like hes putting up less and less of a fight. I would think you'd be able to see a huge jump in his skill levle after playing 10 hours a day in a pro house with amazing players like idra demuslim, puma etc.

How is this video still being played? Am i crazy or are they showing something they shouldn't be showing yet? And if so, how has someone not realized it and pulled it down?
And to whoever mentioned it, sen absolutely was aiming for the cyber core. He killed it right before warpgates finished, which would win the game for zerg a lot of the time. It was one of the best timed baneling busts i've ever seen. It's unfortunate the quality of that play never got noticed though.

Please if you don't think lag can effect more than micro then your are delusional.
It can completely throw of your game and plenty of pros have spoken about this. Just try and play an intense game with lag yourself and see how many mistakes you make.

That wasn't BM. Inc is always overly good mannered after games, and he respects sen a lot. His comment at the end was actually sincere.

Can Gretorp just fucking stop talk?? This is getting so annoying....

Wtf NASL.....so much fail

So, any bets on how Game 1 of Ret vs NightEnd ends? I say mass ultralisk!
|
wow this game feels so "Live" ^^
|
ROFL why is this postgame analysis so long
|
lol @ this fail.. I mean.. its forgivable for the first few minutes.. but cmon... they've let this shit play for this long?

at least this game is still new to us..... lol

Well if this analysis is correct and I have no doubt that it is Ret is going to make alot of drones

Cmon man i am not a big fan of Incontrol but how did he mock Sen? In fact i bet you Geoff and Sen are friends. Bandwagon internet hate on Incontrol seems to be all the rage.
you don't need to be a rocket scientist to recognize that saying "thx for the great series" to someone who rushes you twice is not mockery because we all know that was truly a great series.
see how sen goes "..." after?

I am disliking Gretorps casting more and more. This is all basic stuff. And when he tries to read something special, he often fails.
|
This is so long...wtf...I don't want to watch the entire game
|
Maybe they just want to show is the entire g1 like this?
|
From today's analysis I've learned that larva injects a very very VERY important for zerg.
|
maybe painuser will show us how to scout on xel naga next.
|
Gretorp fails at math :p 1800 about 70-80% more than 1100?
|
Does NASL not have anyone monitoring their live broadcast?
|
NASL is on it. Its a mistake give them some slack
|
WTF Nightend just killed his own Twilight Council? :D
|
nightend killing his own twilight council?!
|
|
Man..this postgame "analysis" is as long as the game itself
|
|
why did he kill his own twilight council?
|
Lmao, game just cut out.
Nice NASL.

Why are they doing a post game analysis that is equivalent in length to the actual game and which hasn't even aired yet?

That wasn't BM. Inc is always overly good mannered after games, and he respects sen a lot. His comment at the end was actually sincere.
yes "overly good mannered" at live events. he has mocked opponents plenty of times before with these sarcastic remarks. his remark at the end of the game was clearly bm. that was a horrible series and he knows it.

Wait, Nightend killed his templar archives? Nasl, the failing that keeps failing... and now, transitioning into a brutal unplug. Welll, it's 4AM in France, good night.

I'm pretty bad at math, but that doesn't seem too wrong. 70% of 1100 is 770. 1100 + 770 =1870... sounds about right? I'm probably dumb tho..
|
I have a feeling that if they didn't cut that post game analysis out, it would've been longer than the sen/incontrol series in its entirety.
|
My analysis is that this is boring. WTF is this, a class lecture? Make the segment 60 seconds long MAX.
This is the most boring thing ever, are you trying to scare away potential casual viewers?

Strelok now? What is this?

hahaha oh man ._. i feel so bad about today's cast/games . . . . but i'll personally forget all of this happened the next time i wake up

If you watched that sen v inc series without knowing the names of the players, I think 100% of people would say "wow, that Protoss player is the worst pro player I have ever seen."
But it's incontrol, so we need to have excuses, and hate on people who are critical.
I would have so much more respect for inc if he would take some time, lay low, and focus on the game, even if he still sucked, rather than parade himself on SOTG and Live on 3 every week and act like he has supreme knowledge of the game, making sarcastic balance complaints and all the other bullshit he does.

I have to agree with this. I am not a huge fan of Gretorp's analysis anyway and that was just not insightful or entertaining. It is cool to try that type of segment, but keep it short.

Oh man, I was AFK and came back to read from page 7 onwards. I'm glad I missed that fail.

QFT...the analysis seems to be aimed at bronze level players (larva injects are important, scout more?!), yet you have Gretorp reciting it in a monotone....at least have totalbiscuit bring some excitement into the postgame

We need an interview!

I would just like him to stop cheeseing. Both those games would have went into regular macro games [most likley] if he didn't start the cannon crap. If you want a real game, play stragiht up. None of this cannon crap.

Is the op trolling hard? Did Incontrol and Inka win?

The thing is...I was reading the chat and they (Nasl staff of some sort) were in the chat. At one point in the game I saw "Should I let it go or just skip it" from one of them. I then proceeded to facepalm.

It looks like Incontrol got 3 builds
1. cannon rush 2.Voidray rush 3. DT
That´s pretty much all I see from him

I don't recall the exact numbers but Ret's income was actually around 55% more than NightEnd's. Something like low 1800s vs. high 1100s.

Oh man, his rough mental estimate was 15ish% off. Totally worth trolling him over. >:O

Why are they watching Streloks base the whole time.....
|
WTF Moonglade? 15 roaches can kill 10 marines and an unsieged tank. Just freaking kill them! If he loses this Belshir game I have no sympathy.
|
|
So strelok did nothing against those banelings? He didnt even move his workers?...

I really love Strelok's play.

Some really nice drops from Strelok, but I'm not sure if he can win without ghosts or consistent splitting of units against the infestors.
|
Moonglade didn't cancel either of those hatches I believe.
|
lol Strelok drops a single marine right next to a huge pack of zerglings :D
|
Moonglade playing pretty sloppy?
|
super sloppy from both sides
|
Strelok keeps getting caught unsieged ; ;
|
Strelok's owning the macro game but his battle engagement are horrible.
|
Strelok...siege your tanks!
|
wow strelok is playing horrrrible
|
Orbital not even lifted?? Cmon...
|
Strelok should have won this game easily if he just sieged his tanks.
|
Strelok why dont you siege tanks
|
and now Moonglade walking in and killing his own infestors? :/
|
Did Strelok wager he'll win this game without sieging his tanks or something?
|
sloppy play by both players
|
|
Im tempted to support NASL and buy a season pass. How is the quality etc? :D
|
both sides playing badly -.-
|
Has Strelok forgotten 2 medivacs somewhere? He has always up in supply, down in workers, and the army of Moonglade looks much bigger.
|
70 seconds to make a Ultra? Cmon Gretorp, you are a caster of a game you dont even know what the patch changes is?

Strelok playing so well other than his engagements. His strategy really paying off, expand like a zerg, deny their expansions.

pretty close game on a slighly Z favoured map.
some mistakes by strelok, but moonglade still one level below strelok. Decent showing by moonglade though.

For once, Strelok sieged his tanks, and now he's basically won.

Strelok down to 30 harvesters but still won?

he hit 3-3 before strelock did

He's been practicing 30 games a day for a few weeks now, he's playing the same as he used to (or just less than it). It was in preparation for Blizzcon though, i'm not sure if he has practiced as much for NASL. Also he has to play at like 4 in the morning for NASL so you can't expect the best play.

I guess he hangs out with his gf instead of playing. Not saying its bad but its showing in his play. Kellymilkies is ruining e-sports! He's been practicing 30 games a day for a few weeks now, he's playing the same as he used to (or just less than it). It was in preparation for Blizzcon though, i'm not sure if he has practiced as much for NASL. Also he has to play at like 4 in the morning for NASL so you can't expect the best play.
Yeah I dont know, he seems really really unstable and just have no real gamesense, plus his macro seems bad.

strelok is strange. hes not superb, but hes solid.
i have no other word for strelok then solid. and he wins most of his games one of the better EU and foreign terrans.

Carpet on the wall, east europe at it finest <3

Strelok interviews are the best. I am such a fan!
|
So pumped for NightEnd vs Ret now, owait.

Some of the best facial hair in all of ESPORTS.

NIGHEND VS RET; I WONDER WHO WINS, OH WAIT..................

No strategy is perfect. Which is why having many of them is good.

@DiaBoLuS Oh, that makes a lot of sense. Yeah, I saw that.

Can someone please analyze this Ret Nightend game for me?

It's so true. I enjoyed the silence of the casters too, as they had no clue wtf to say.
And Ret is on a whole other level compared to nightend. This game is over before its begun.

Does this qualify Ret for funday Monday this week?

I don't understand why players continue to play a passive game against Ret. EVERYONE knows that he plays INCREDIBLY greedy. How do you think that NR20ing against him is going to work for you?

WHAT THE FUCK why is he shooting the council!?
|
Yea + belshir PvZ is super hard

Fuck that Twilight Council up, son.

NightEnD pulling off an MMA right there! LOL Poor guy you can't let Ret alone for 10 minutes like that.

The Twilight Council was a traitor, good job NightEnd
|
why would the analyze this game.... this is more one sided than the incontrol vs sen games.
|
ahahahahaha XD
But seriously NightEnD. What did that Twilight council do to you?
|
Seeing incontrol get dominated always brings a smile to my face, thanks NASL
|
What is with nightend and his miscontrol? he just took a shot at his natural nexus right? After the roaches went into full retreat? >.>
|
Ret's macro is just... O_O
|
|
Just saw Inka vs Select results...wtf???
I'm guessing its because of Korean to NA lag, he'd absolutely destroy inka if there was no lag.

So I'm watching this and I notice ret has an overlord at both bases, and a ling out front. Basically granting perfect scouting information. What is protoss supposed to do to scout a zerg at this point in the game?

Don't exaggerate. You should be able to deny overlords seeing too much. Oh and did you not see the hallucinated phoenix scouting EVERYTHING?

You didn't answer my question, and actually he shot at the overlords but they saw everything anyway.

When is the earliest you can get hallucination? Cause its way after a lot of zerg busts.

Immortals? To kill his own buildings faster? Haha

Ret is looking so amazingly confident in his macro. I get the feeling that the minute he realizes it's going to be a macrogame, his whole body just relaxes and knows he's going to win. Amazing.

Nice, Ret got cracklings. I wish more zergs would get that.

Protoss scouting is fine. Shhhhh.

Hey I like the way NASL is transitioning out of the games.
It's like "And there's the gg". And immediately music plays "Dun dun dun du du du dun dun".
Instead of "And there's the gg". And then "Yup... that was... an entertaining game".

Ok. I get it, you play zerg and think protoss is OP. I wasn't arguing imbalance or whining. I was asking a question. I realize Nightend isn't the best toss around so I was wondering what a better toss would do to scout. Theres a timing right around when you are throwing down your nexus that you don't have hallucinate or an obs, and speedlings are out. Is it just accepted that you need to wait until later to scout, or can you be sneaky with probes?? It's an honest question here and I really don't need your dismissive zerg sass.
|
I'm not a pro, but I'm guessing a Protoss player could pressure as he expands, which would obviously scout the zerg as well as force them to make units.

No one said anything about Protoss being OP. There are various timings in the game where all 3 races can dominate map control and scouting info. When ling speed finishes vs toss, when hellions are out vs zerg, when muta are out vs terran or in zerg mirror. Just part of the game. IMO a better toss like Huk would have poked to know what the zerg was doing and at least broken even unit wise.

Protoss will never have the map awareness that zerg has, it's just a weakness in the matchup. As far as early scouting with a probe goes, it's possible even on the professional level but in no way completely reliable.

2-3 seconds is such an exaggerated load of shit. The only way he could have a ping that high to NA (and I completely retract my criticism if this is true) from Korea is if there was some serious congestion / line issue / fault with his modem that is completely independent of location.

According to TL, incontrol has the lowest ELO out of all EG players, even behind machine, strifeco, and lzgamer. But I think that's mostly due to incontrol still being in tournaments where he gets smashed all the time, while those other lower-tier EG guys are playing in single or double elim tourneys. If your skill is below the median in a tournament, group play like MLG or NASL just magnifies your number of losses (e.g. in a normal elimination tourney, the amount of losses you get is much more limited).
Still, I feel like incontrol should've followed painuser's footsteps and started casting full-time. I like his casting much more than his play.

I agree here, and a EG captain function like in korean houses would suit him, still play some hours a day but more focus on it's other members. (maybe his gf already does that i supose)
Because let's be honest the team house training does not improve his play, even if it's not that long some improvement should have been visible, and they clearly are not. You either go another way with this game, like casting and being suport, or you break everything down lay low and build it up slowly.
I am not hating on the guy but every time i see him at an MLG i think, this spot could have gone to some one more deserving.
|
Incontrol must be exaggerating quite a lot on how much he plays per day, i've heard him saying 8-12 hours but that is just impossible. I mean he seems like a pretty smart guy so there is no way he is that bad playing so much.

Remember he has to say he plays that much too. Whether he is or not. He can hardly say, yeah well i played 4hours today when his managers will be watching and wondering why they're paying him all this money and spent all the money on that teamhouse when he's not putting the effort in.
Not saying that's the case, i can't say i stalk his bnet profile to know when he's online and what he's doing. But i'm guessing he can't say anything but.
But if he his playing that much everyday, surely the time he's putting in has got to show something soon.
|
Yeah iNcontroL should definitely go back to castng again or do something more productive than playing himself since he isnt doing well in the game. I wonder if he practises at all... Its pretty easy to improve on the game by just playing and especially when you have that great practise partners.

Incontrol But he's such a nice guy!

when you play ppl like sen, it's gonna be hard to get your ELO higher :p

Good mechanics go a long way, i feel he's ahead by far compared to those he played so far. See the Koreans he faces on MLG, it's alot more closer then these games.

This iNcontroL hate has gone a little too far, yes? We don't need to pile on. I think there are legitimate ways to critique players, but ultimately it'd be nice if people would respect the work that people put in towards improving their game, whether you think it has paid off, or hasn't.

There's not hate towards this guy. And honestly he is in some way a public person and profits and benefits from publicity. So there has to be room to criticize a person like Incontrol who also likes to troll and criticize alot of other players.

No hate at all, i have mad respect for this guy, always polite toward his opponents and funny as hell, my european joke was like a tribute to him actually. And i hope this new patch will give us back the sick PvZer he was not long ago.

Wait, what? I don't think anyone discounts the work that progamers put into their games/practice. We are all fans. We are disappointed for players when they don't do well not because we think they are lazy and don't respect the amount of time they put into their craft. We are disappointed in their results because we, like them, want to see that hard work pay off.
You picked the wrong issue to whiteknight over.

Could not see the games but this thread painted a pretty sad, but still funny, picture. xD Lost the bet on Select tho.  Would really like to see Nightend do well, he's such a great and hard working guy.

I'm glad to see Inka taking 2 games off a player like Select. I'm an Inka-fanboy just waiting for him to have some results. I find his harass-style toss play to be really energizing and fun to watch. He even places his buildings in a functional and aesthetically pleasing manner.
