If you don't know how to post in a live report thread by now, be advised: don't whine about game balance and don't bash players/casters/interviewers/staff/other posters. We are monitoring this thread closely.

Stop with the USA USA chant shit. Further offenses beyond page 493 will be met with bans. You've been warned.

Well, he did take out Puma in IEM, so it's not like it is impossible.

Predictions
Ro16:

HuK 1-2 Inori

Ro8:

Ret 2-1 Lucky
PuMa 0-2 MMA
TheStC 2-1 IdrA
viOlet 2-1 Inori

Semi:

Ret 1-3 MMA
TheStC 3-2 Inori

Finals:

MMA 4-2 TheStC


Mine: Thorzain 2-1 idra
Violet 2-1 stephano
HuK 2-0 Inori


ro8 Ret 0-2 Lucky
PuMa 1-2 MMA
TheStC 2-1 thorzain
HuK 1-2 violet

semi: Lucky 1-3 MMA
TheStC 3-1 violet

finals: TheStC 4-3 MMA

You both think viOlet will win against Stephano in a ZvZ. Korean zergs aren't that good in ZvZ (except Nestea but he is the best zerg player in the world) because they don't practive it. Stephano has to face Nerchio, Dimaga on a regular basis. I think he is way better than viOlet in ZvZ.

After that HuK should won against Inori even though MC lost to him.

If viOlet or Inori get to the quarter it will be a big surprise to me.

Second, anyone know if IPL has something like MLG did on twitter that updated all the scores throughout the day?

@IGNProScores updated frequently on the first two days, didn't do as much yesterday though.
It appears I have been chosen.

He took out Puma 3-0 and took out some other korean Terran last night


Yeah but there's a world of difference between Idra taking out Puma and Thorzain taking DRG to the last game of a best of five. I mean Puma's really good, but his TvZ isn't anything special - he's won mainly TvPs for his finals. On the other hand DRG is probably the best ZvT in the world, and Thorzain damn near beat him. He also absolutely munted Spanishiwa the other night, who I'd say is around Idra's level.

I can't see Idra even taking a game off him.



the 2-3 vs DRG was a bit lucky tbh if you watch all games carefully. DRG had the lead in all 5 games pretty much.
I still think TvZ is his worst MU and IdrA does pretty well in that matchup lately.

its 50/50 imo.

He also played a million games with Puma in practice. That affects a lot of things.

Thorzain isn't worse than Puma anyway.

k just seeing start of the hyped game of stephano vs kiwikaki and i must say this already had weirdness and luck early on.

Reasons:
Stephano dont drone scout hell he dont even make more then 2 lings aswell as not scouting the natural to see FFE from kiwi for long time , also he had 2 drones in gas means delayed speed.
another error was to check for cybercore timing as stephano saw nexus and cannons done he didnt go with ovi in base to scout. but with this 2 lings no drone scout no wonder he loses to 3 pylon block , he can even lose to some 2 gate agression. note kiwi did cybercore at 5:50 means roaches or banes can outright kill them. im not pleased about such a risky start from both sides. but well lets see how it evolves :>

if you watch Stephano play he has one of the earliest scout timings of any zerg players, which means he is aware of Kiwi's playstyle and adjusts accordingly.

´
Both players arent CPU means its impossible for both to adjust to one oppenents playstyle cause all what would happen is chaos.
Also im not biased to any of those 2 players because both can improve.
Anyways done watching and dissapointment is there if id point out the amount of mistakes from both players id still give kiwi given how it has played out a bigger edge on how it should have turned out . given the mistake stacking of both players i expected it to turn out with a bigger supply deficit.

Im out for now enjoy your games folks.
There are to many targets , and i smile everytime they try to defend and thinking they are smart.

Did you think he would 3-0 Puma?
I'd put Puma a level above Thorzain.


Who knows whether that particular IdrA will show up though. I would've thought it's a hard series to predict, could be close, could be lopsided for either side depending on who shows up on the day.
Thorzain has been very dodgy vs zerg in the past, but did stay in Korea for some time and probably improved it as his recent results show.

Spanishiwa is no where near idra's level. idrA has immesurably more success and actual results than him. It's not even a debate.

have you ever seen stephano's ZvZ??? 3-0 sheth ezpz? :D


As i said before, i haven't seen Stephanos ZvZ, but i have seen Violet's which seem pretty solid. And hard to say right now if Sheth or Slush even compare to Violet (in ZvZ), but we will see.

I just asked because i hate people 'questioning' others without explaining themselves.

I really love thorzain and think he's a really smart player (a bit passive though but for his style that's really good) but I still think PuMa/MMA are in a completely different league than thorzain, all matchups that is
