I was laughing so hard, when he did that. People flamed the shit out of naniwa for thumbs downing nestea, but wasn't as severe when MC did this. So weird

Thumbs downing is somewhat mean spirited. This is just awesome!


It's not like it was MC's fault he got consumed by a monster in the booth that then excaped and threatened the audience, good thing MLG got that sorted out :o

Keen ties it up 1-1. The gathers around the last game of the night, which will determine the final player to make it to Sunday. #MLG

You can do it, Keen.

With stargate play denying map vision, I just don't see how you can hold off that sentry drop timing. If you don't have units constantly tucked near the spores, void rays will eat you. But if you protect your units, the sentry drop kills you. Even if idra split his army, he would have still lost. He has no effective anti air, and Zerg actually need it to defeat this build. 3 base play might disappear, which will make forge expand unbelievably strong.

Need really quick hydras or corruptors to stop this. Spores suck.

It's a shame they couldn't get Dustin Browder here to co-cast with Rob Simpson. A classic SC2 casting duo if there ever was one!

MC got a lot of flack in the GSL when thumbing down opponents and being cocky before they got used to it. The bashers have simply gotten tired of him and are looking for a new target.

i think asking her to marry you on a big stage is kind of a dick move. to put her in a situation where she is under so much pressure to say yes is way more bm than thumbing down nestea


Usually when people do this its because the proposal is long overdue and expected. I've been with my gf for 4.5 years, and we are still in school so no engagement but its definitely coming and we both know it Prob when I graduate grad school and get a real job is when it's going to happen lol


Yeah, let's see buddy..

After which match did MC do that?

And it looks like MVP/Nestea have been playing each other too long. They forgetting how to play against Protoss, lol. They need some Boxer level late night strategizing.


It was after his match against MVP.

This is why Hydras need to be tier 1.5 again. Zerg needs their anti-air sooner.

You do realize MC did the "thumbs down" to idra @ Columbus right?


He also did the throat slash thing.

This thread got closed after that match. But Naniwa somewhat deserves it here though, he acted really immature there. (not just the "ceremony")


Calling MLG a "fucking joke" was going a bit too far, but if I was versing NesTea in a deciding match, after confirming with an admin, and then finding out that the map was completely different to what I thought? I'd be pretty pissed, and so would you. If IdrA was in that position, we all know there would have been a shitstorm that would rival the tornado that hit last MLG. Considering Naniwa's past, a single line of text and then immediate acceptance is a pretty large step forward.

For the second day in a row, I'm disappointed by the Providence crowd. They just seem bored and uninspired. Where are the real SC2 fans this weekend?

Could be wrong, but doesn't a spore at the ramp with some lings stop the sentry drop cold ? I've seen some zergs do it on stream before and I'm pretty sure its intended to stop the ramp forcefield tactics.


ding ding ding! Also roach tunnelling claws, IdrA would of held that even without the spore.



Tunneling claws and burrow is an awful huge investment to prevent a strategy that the protoss can do almost whenever he wants after a warp prism is out. Especially when the protoss can just fly away and lose nothing if he chooses.
It's spelled LOSE not LOOSE.

Honestly, that baneling all-in has to do more damage. Both games Idra all-ins w/o doing much damage, dies to a warp prism sentry and all the zergs start crying. I want to see a macro game where the zerg has +20-30 supply @ that point. 2 games where a player all-ins and dies to a strat and then starts to cry makes no sense.

Apparently NanIwa hosted the wrong map and blamed the admins for it and called the tournament a joke, delaying the broadcast.

NanIwa comes off as a arrogant, bitter person to alot of people ( me included ) because of the childish way he acts. He's very good but if he want's to be respected by most, he needs to grow up, it's not really just this one thing but his attitude in general.

Even better. Pair him up with Mr. Bitter or Artosis. The little jabs at Zerg/Protoss weaknesses will slowly drive him mad.
