Goes undefeated through the open bracket.
Beats Bomber.
Only lost one game in the pool (to a double 1-1-1).

...and still "only" ends up in third pool place.

They are breaking SaSes balls, man. The are breaking his balls.

Very impressive run, and we get a rematch between Stephano and Kiwikaki. :D

Agree, he take out Huk and MC in a PvP in IPL and fucked up after on. PvP man......

The players he is playing need to be more well-rounded then. They need to practice PvP just as much as any other MU.

Glad Slush got a nice win. Surprisingly bad W/L in his pool play (since he's usually posts very strong MLG results).

Yeah, I can't go to sleep yet- I'll go play some FFVIII for a few hours.

Been an awesome night of games, looking forward to later today.

Inca is pretty good now in those inhouse game, but he is still the DT toss, he play every match up with DT.
DT open in PvP and win, DT expand in PvT, PvZ....or DT drop....

Firstly, the korean/foreigner terminology was invented before SC2 existed. Secondly, I was simply clarifying what every sane person means by the terms. When someone says HuK is Korean, it is shorthand for saying he's a white dude who has trained in Korea for long enough to be considered one of them, in SC terms.

so by that logic rain is now a foreigner? Since he now lives and trains in the US? Do dirk nowitski, tony parker, pau gasol, etc. become american when they go to the NBA?

If he stays in the US for long enough, yes.

I'm not familiar with basketball, sorry. In football there is a clear distinction made between, for example, South American players who stay in the local leagues vs those who go to Europe. There's no similar terminology though.

???... South American soccer players will always be South American no matter how long they stay in Europe. It's just the consensus that a player's true explosion is found in the best level, in soccer's case, that's european leagues. But in soccer a player never "becomes european", unless he actually changes nationalities. Or maybe I just misread you.

BTW, I think this is one of the silliest discussions in all of TL. Why would a player change nationalities LOL. He's getting the best training, but he's still representing his home country. It seems like the inverse situation is consensus in SC, but it seems silly to me.

that's not true even though most likely they will retain the style of where they learned football so people keep referring to that. actually football pros get second and third citicenships all the time for playing in countries long enough! (and/or special ones to be able to play for national teams). it's just semantics again at this point as in that context it never refers to actual nationality youÄ're of course right there.
but even for players like messi he's a 'spanish' player now because he played at barca for the most significant time so yeah

Messi could've played for spain, but he choose argentina. Because he feels like he belongs in argentina. The country sees him as an argentine. So he is argentine, despite what people say.

countryman
sure

but the flavo(u)r of his play, i'd say he's more considered european
of course us europeans would agree.
i guess at that point like with huk everybody just finds some kind of 'loophole' to integrate a great player into his sphere

No countryman, PLAYER. He considers himself a argentine football player, that's why he plays for argentina national squad.

is that the catch 22 thing? are we at the point where it started with HuK? i'd think so

nobody's denying that

it's a question of flavor/system

but it's down to semantics again

Tyler and Slush GOGO!

i'm a linguist how dare you tell me to not argue semantics ;P

I got a pretty good guess why he can dare :p, something to do with the little text in white up top.

i'm still intrigued by that, i don't have anything. is my browser preventing me to be yelled at by mods? ^_^

GOD the stream just fucked up my speakers, anyone else?!

Make ultras, lost battle.

took out enough that a pure ling remax easily wins the game.

If he split up his army a little better so that 2 of his ultras weren't stuck behind his roaches he would have smashed it.

but either way, mass ling will tear apart a protoss who's expansions are so spread out, so all he had to do was thin the army abit and then just hit multiple locations with lings.

great play by slush in both games. his zerg play makes sense to me, unlike a lot of other guys.
