Watch how you approach the topic of match fixing. You can speculate, saying "I'm not so sure about the finals, something doesn't sit right with me," but if you are going to outright accuse players of match fixing you need something more than your word.

TL takes match fixing/abuse seriously and as such there is a burden a proof when you are accusing players.

DAT TIMING!! OMG!! MVP FIGHTING!!
With an average game length of 7m36s over his 6 games in GSL3, this is a no-brainer. BitByBit pulls more SCVs than yo momma at a club on Mar Sara. ♞

3-3 Best record for Nestea against MVP so far.

Yes. It's a horrible format.


Its the standard format for double elimination tournaments that the guy from the losers bracket has to win 2 Bo3s.

Doesn't mean it's not horrible.



Should the person who didn't lose a single Bo3 not be rewarded somehow?

By punishing the player who has already been punished just to get to the finals?


Nestea lost a best of 3 to MVP at the end.

Therefore he goes to the loser's bracket. Who is in the loser's bracket? Thats right nobody.

Then he goes to the last championship round.

Make sense that way?

Brilliance from MVP, I love it.

Pushing a whole tank earlier than the old 3tank timings, but he can get away with moving out without siege mode because of the map control he has with those early hellions. So logical, so effective.


This, so smart..... Imma make my hellion expands always and have that pressure after

You do understand how double elimination works right?

I think mr tea needs to get a roach warren for map control, and then make sure not to overmake roaches (or try to go allin).

If this MVP vs Nestea buisness taught me anything, close spawn clearly favours Zerg!

1.) Make 4 hellions, so the zerg has to stay in his base forever.
2.) Attack at any random time, as zerg has no ability to break that contain.
3.) Win.

Why doesn't this work every time?

-Cross

In lower levels these strategy rarely works because a lot of those players don't feel safe or aren't greedy so they always have units around.

Pretty much. Most masters players would make a ton of lings and overwhelm your hellions.

Interesting attack from MVP there. No getting away from how terrible this map pool has made the games though.

Someone wanna bet they are gonna spawn close ground on Shakuras?


Sure I will bet my life savings since even on the ladder the close (by ground and air) positions are disabled. Give me your money.
