Why must Mr. Bitter always ask players their game plan? Clearly no one is going to announce at large whether they will cheese or go straight up.

Stop bashing Elfi and making yourself look stupid - its sad that someone "famous" from SC2 NEEDS to tell you "this guy is insane" so you actually take him as good player, start thinking with your own head.

Elfi is very good player and he would probably rape any player you fanboy (from foreigner scene) so stop bashing him for no reason.

elfi didnt deserve that, hasu outplayed him in just about everyway


All of you guys claiming Hasu outplayed...i hope you realize PvP at the top level is like 80% decision making. Its all metagame.

Edit: that is, almost every top player has good enough micro do almost anything; its the choices and mindgames that win, thus, Hasu losing means Hasu was, at least today, the worse PvPer

kthxbai


kthxhai, care to explain why it's ~80% in each and every game of PvP?
most people are saying that hasuobs is more consistent in his good decision making mid to late game. even players today are unsure of the best way to play. if it means being able to stay alive, and being able to play well in the late game, then yeah, hasuobs did play a better style but fell short.


Uh, 80% was an arbitrary number to illustrate the point that PvP is by and far all about the choices you make

Care to explain? Yes. Everyone can blink stalkers and move around their colossus. Not fucking hard. Its the reads you make and the choices you make based on them that determine the game. End of story. Hasu isn't bad he just got outplayed. Boom.

edit: game 3, no cannon in main was a terrible decision. he was safe from the front and from blink (and he knew it) and thus the only possible threat was dt into main, and he didn't build a single cannon despite having forge

game 4: he should have won that game, and i think anyone who knows phoenix pvp and pvp in general realized that. moving down the ramp to defend that one gateway with only one immortal BARELY lost him the game, and if he had had 3 immortals or more it would have just been a move into hasu for hard win, and phoenix/obs to prevent blinking in/map awareness, or just go for base trade because he would have won that too

game 5: LOL in general there. if you think hasu outplayed in any way in game 5, you're just wrong


i'm gonna stop right there before your edits.
you can push your opinion all you want, but there's seriously no need to patronize everbody.
these are opinions of others, and what right do you have to go on about rotti? would you rather go cast yourself since your knowledge of the game is that much better?

give it a break, please

I very much agree with what Puma said: He wins in practice, but this is a totally different field (pun intended). If Idra is on his game, he could take it. It's going to come down to his ability to shut down Puma's Harass imo.

Does anyone else think its kind of goofy when interviewers ask about what game style/strats they are going to use, right before the match is about to start? Lol, I find that its kind of a funny question, just because most people would not feel comfortable giving away their game plans prior to a match.

WHEN YOU BLINK YOU CANT BLINK AGAIN FOR A WHILE, THUS, WHEN YOU BLINK INTO A BASE AND THEY HAVE ZEALOTS AND NEAR EQUAL STALKERS AND CLOSER REINFORCEMENTS, YOU WILL LOSE WAY MORE AND RUIN YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING

someone send this guy the goddamn memo


Mate On what level do you play pvp? Do you play vs the best protoss players in the world? I play this match-up every day, even against the guys in this tournament, I know a lot about the match-up and i've been in simulair situations on simulair skill level 350 times, I was just asking elfi's opinion, i was trying to push it, I was just wondering since i've seen it happening 300 times , but Im sure you know it better mate care to play some pvps?


why do you respond to people like that?

seriously. stop it. not even I would consider responding to a post like that and I spend way more time posting on these forums than you do.


People "like that" as in people with legitimate criticism of casting? I'm not saying they are bad or even not good, but they shouldn't talk about things they don't know the way they do

Sorry i don't sugarcoat my comments like "oh, you guys, well, you did so great, i just think, you know, you might want to consider perhaps potentially not talking as much about things you are maybe not totally 100% certain of, okay?

Same message. They don't know the situation, they shouldn't act like they do

Yea actually, we'll simulate the scenario. I'll take shakuras main and have 10 stalkers and 4 zealots and a sentry, and you blink into my base from the side with 12 stalkers

See what happens, rofl.


I look forward to that, we can simulate that exact scenario quite easyly , feel free to PM me your contact details and I'll play you as soon as I'm back in Europe, I do expect apologies afterwards, that oke? I might provide you with a few PvP replays as well so you'll learn not to use caps lock in the future, donk.

To everybody else, hope you guys enjoyed it as much as we did ;D, looking forward to idra vs Puma now!


The guy really isn't worth your time rotty. Keep up the good work .
