Boxer got fucked over by the stupid extended series. Pisses me off.

...how is extended series stupid? -.-

For pool play, it's pretty stupid.


If anything, Boxer was helped by the fact that it was double elimination and that he didn't auto-lose from getting 2-0ed by IdrA lol

Why do people QQ about this format every tournament -.-' Get over it, people.

Final score between IdrA and Boxer is 4-3 Idra. That means Boxer loses.


Because Idra is already rewarded with higher seeding, is automatically moved further into the tourney, gets an unfair 2-0 advantage in a second series that should be considered completely separate because it's championship losers bracket not the seeding pool. How hard is that to understand?


if you beat someone once, you shouldn't have to play them again. However, sometimes this happens. For these situations, the onus is on the losing player to show that he is superior, and the way to do that is come back when you're down in a bo7.

Man I can't believe idra held that 16 hellion attack.. on such a wide choke it's just unbelievable without roaches. That's what requires skill and not 2 rax nonsense where everyone in gold league can pull of.


So anyone in gold league can hold off that build, but Slayers Boxer cannot? You're obviously a highly intelligent individual aren't you.

idra didnt hold the attack off, boxer failed the attack. if you were watching the same game as me, it's simple to see.


How? Idra played as best as you can there. What boxer could have done there? Idra had banelings, lings, lots of spine crawlers and EXTRA queens to block/harass those hellions.

When he got into the main with the hellions, Idra blocked Boxer's way with the hellions brilliantly, placing his queens right, and keeping his zerglings ready.

Either i'm fucking blind, but really, Boxer didn't exactly fail that attack. Idra just defended it as best as you could have.


I think people are comparing that to when MKP did it. But Haypro had like 2 spines up instead of 5 so the comparison is really silly.

yeah Haypro defence was bad, and 30 hellions produced, but he has never has more than 15 at once on the field. 15 hellions vs 4-5 spines + zerglings blings waiting on ramp + 3 queens.
If you said hellions should go for the mineral lines, they are all dead before that...


I'm pretty sure when Boxer initiated the very first time he had 15+ hellions vs handful of lings only + queens and spines. The banes only started morphing at the start of the attack. Suiciding into the nat min line Boxer would probably kill 10-15 drones as opposed to just losing them trying to kill spines/queens. Having said that he obviously doesn't have full vision and Idra did defend extremely well, but I'm absolutely sure he could have done more damage.

If Idra loses to HongUn, he will have a consolation match with Puma. If idra then wins: Incontrol gets into top 16 at Providence, and if he loses, Puma goes into Top 16 at Providence.

EG Matchpoint.

Remember Providence first place is $50,000, Orlando only $5000

I'm going to laugh so hard if Puma throwing the game away gives Incontrol the last seed at Providence.


is that real?!

GO INCONTROL
Puma show some love haha


Hello to the only person in the world cheering for Incontrol's play, lol.

There's people out there who hate Puma but hate Incontrol clogging up MLG's top 16 even more.


Why does everyone "hate" Incontrol, for being 1-10, but I haven't seen one negative thing towards Nony, who is.....oh wait 1-10 as well.... weird.


because incontrol is literally 2-30 in the last 3 MLG pools and has a chance to be seeded yet again. two wins and thirty losses.

IdrA defended it very very well but Boxer did miss some opportunities to kill drones.
And that may be the scariest part... Had Boxer's macro not slipped, had he researched blueflammes, that game might have looked a lot different....
I'll have to watch the replay, but I'm 90% sure his macro didn't slip rather his reactors were still building hence couldn't make units.


Also with 16+ hellions, blueflame does nothing but overkill.

Yea like having +3 attack on your maxed army is overkill, right?

I just realized something crazy. TheSTC is guaranteed to finish at least top 3, so he will get a Code S seed for the next GSL unless MC takes second. For MC to take second, here's what needs to happen:

1. TheSTC loses to Huk in Winners' Finals
2. MC beats MarineKing
3. MC beats winner of Bomber and Hongun/Idra.
4. MC beats TheSTC.

It actually seems pretty likely that TheSTC will finally make it out of Code B!


Or Idra


Or Hongun.


I forgot about Hongun being in the Up & Downs and Idra going back to Korea. -_-

What happens if Hongun earns the Code S spot here? Do they just play his Up & Down group with him missing?

there is extended series rule so ppl wouldnt loose on purpose on group play to help their team mates or firends to get into better placing at championship bracket.


Sure but then it is still unfair to the players in a way, too. I think it's better iwthout the extended rules. Anyways, what if a finals is 2-0? Even a 2-1 is short. Having a more traditional format like a bo5 finals would be much more satisfying.
