The production value is just sick sick sick... Not a single minute of downtime, stuff to watch in 3 channels.

The Caesar's stream became unloadable for me in the middle of the MC Ret game, but the Bally's stream works.

I don't think it's IPL's fault though because the internet on my end is very inconsistent.

mc obviously played it good but if that was vs a top korean zerg player he would not have won.
you can't really come back from such a huge macro economic disadvantage that mc was in vs ret.
it's just that mc out classes a player like ret

I love people that measure a players skill by how many production facilities they make on 2 base

Well let me help you out. Ret is really good.

There is a reason MC has won GSL's.

Why don't we go with MC is great? It seems like a much more likely possibility than Ret, who just 2-0'ed Strelok being terrible.

Because his play in the gsl recently says otherwise. Also using the transitive property isnt always the best way of determining skill.

Gordon Hayward really showing hes an actual asset to IPL, giving great interviews and bringing two communities together That being said it seems so funny(being a basketball fan myself) listening to some of the questions painuser asks him.

Man, production values off the chart here. This Gordon Hayward spot is so cool hahaha

Thanks IPL, so sick

Setting the bar. I don't think that there's been a tournament that looked this good on so many levels that I've ever seen. They got the big things perfectly, and have so many little things that just make it amazing.... things I wouldn't have even thought of.

Guys, let's remember that MC is supposed to be walking over foreigners. He stayed on 2 base with waaay too much tech, and I don't think his stargate play is ever really good against Z..


also, wow, how tall is painuser??!?!

What really surprised me about MC's play there was his calmness when that pressure at the third actually did less damage than expected. While using only zealots and some penix to pressure, he spent his extra gas on templar tech which was later crucial to him holding when he was on a crazy macro disadvantage. That plus his ability to get insane unit control and engagements ultimately won the game but that tech on 2 base was really impressive.

remax on 40 roaches vs like 12 3 atk immortals?


What should he have remaxed on. Lings vs storms.

Speaking of which... what do people think ret did wrong? I suppose that he could have made infestors but they are pretty weak against HT, which MC had alot of. Banelings wouldn't have worked cus of storm and blink. And ultras get stomped by that many immortals with 3 attack.

So what should ret have done in that situation? Perhaps tried to pull the army apart with nydus and drops.
I cannot think of a way that zerg could have dealt with that army straight up. Ret's mistake was trying to engage MC at all.

Any differing opinions?

Ret, why so many roaches?

MC won the unit composition battle by a long margin. You can't go zergling roach vs. high-tech Protoss, and Ret never hit the broodlord numbers to be able to kill the anti-air support.

He needed to not lose his infestors early on. Infestor broodlord, with some ground support, is really how you beat that composition.

IGN's the future of esport. Amazing production value. Sad not much live audience but very very impressive. Is there a way to see how many viewers on stream???
