I think he quoted apollo.

That's because Puma and Bomber would have killed Elfi with a 1/1/1, and MVP.. .well, MVP is MVP. No one is saying Select is that good.

Efli's control left a lot to be desired. He could have taken that game if he'd controlled his units better. Also, I think he was somewhat overwhelmed in terms of multi-tasking. The observers missed several drops by Select throughout the game that occurred during engagements. I think this kind of pressure really pushed Elfi to his limits and his control suffered somewhat.
That being said, ignoring all the Elfi haters, I think he has potential.
edit: Select's TvP is very good, tbh I was expecting a complete roflstomp so I was surprised to see Elfi do so well

Desktops, laptops, graphics cards, motherboards, tablets. Plenty of stuff. They're a huge brand with a pretty good reputation.

For the people who caught White-Ra vs Ret games 3-5, how were they? I turned it off when White-ra went down 0-2 after that terribly unfortunate pylon block, really surprised to see he came back.

Ahh the always dependable battle for 2nd best server in the world rears its head yet again in the LR thread. Oh what is this, a stealthly clad critique on descriptive terms casters "shouldn't" be using!! Oh, and the balance discussion whore at the party with another upskirt shot for the paparazzi.
You never seem to disappoint LR threads.

we see elfi up 20-40 workers, but the mining of terran with mules doubling protoss, how is this balanced... Select well played the strenghts of his race.
constantly denying bases, while squeezing more economy on less mining bases thanks to mules.
This isn't entirely true. Fact is, even if the Terran has less bases and significantly less SCV's, they can manage to keep up with a Zerg or Protoss economy quite well with Mules. Thus harassing a Terran for the purpose of killing workers won't do as much damage as harassing a Zerg or Protoss to kill workers, though it still does damage. Sometimes it is better to focus your harass on supply depots, add-ons, ect.
The picture below is from a game between Attero and Spades. Attero has almost double the worker the count...

Idra vs WhiteRa seems pretty even to me. Both are pretty good

They were incredible from a whitera fan point of view. One all in hold, one game with amazing zealot wp play, and the third game had really good metagaming.

Ret was inches from winning in games 3, 4 and 5. Multiple times in game 4. They were pretty good. And White-Ra went into massive Zealot dropping.

When I wake up Idra I expect a 3-0 by you and the finals to just start

iirc. Ret tried a 2base hydra drop on Terminus that WhiteRa was able to shut down Tal'Darim was a very cool macro game Shakuras...I missed the start, but WhiteRa closed it out convincingly with some nice warp prism play and a lot of units off 2 base.
Always special to see Grandpatoss turning on the style.

So sun rises from 3 o'clock and sets at 9 o'clock? One might argue with you that SC's o'clock system is totally retarded and used because people can't fathom cardinal directions (which would be the most logical system to use).

It's EET, which is UTC+2 and not +1.
