He paused without a "pp" then bm-ed the tournament when the game was still on the screen. the thumbs down/interview etc were just an addition | ||

I think the naniwa thing ruined it for me, not only because of what happened, but because of the LR destruction... I just hope it doesn't happen again, really bad. Feel free to close the LR thread then. I'm getting the sickest nerd chills watching these games, and I'm excited that more SC2 players aren't afraid to show personalities on stage. Sure NaNiWa isn't the most mannered player, but we already knew that. He's riding a huge high having 4-2'd NesTea in the past two days.[/QUOTE] Seriously? did you like, not read when Idra lost any game at all? this is even tame... | ||

Why do people have to say things that are so mindnumbingly stupid that are made from ignorance when it is quite obvious the reasoning for why people are seeded the way they are. And then complain about it. Just pretend it's a year long tournament where every game played or not played counts and it will not seem unfair. Why should Huk who has won and done well in each MLG tournament start from the same advantage as Mvp based on the results of the GSL? Just because Mvp is the best player in the world and has won three GSL tournaments does not mean everyone else's tournaments need to be built around him and need to make sure everyone starts where he is? Please try to bring the community up; stop saying things that make MLG not seem like a really, really phenomenal tournament that produces excellent matches. Please. | ||

However, I would not advise calling your opponent stupid then uploading it on youtube or calling MLG Providence a joke of a tournament (it is certainly not, in fact, it's the best foreign tournament so far, imo). Sources to my claims can be found on Reddit Starcraft section. | ||

It's quite a different thing being at your home playing 10 hour straight and being at a huge tournament with important games one after another with barely enough time to grab something to eat | ||

I'd say it's to the one whos been playing all days favour up until a certain point. I.e if I'm playing high level games for 4-5 hours in a row I'm going to be warmed up and "in the zone" while the other guy has to start without any good warmup, which can be awkward. There is however a tipping point somewhere in the zone of 7-10 hours zone where fatigue starts taking out its toll, so you won't be thinking clearly as in your decision making, especially in longer games, will start falling apart. | ||
