Here we go again. This weekend is about good games and good fun. Don't rain on that parade. Play nice guys. Here's the very standard and friendly:
- NO Balance Whine.
- NO Player Bashing.
- NO Caster Bashing.
- NO BM whatsoever.
Breaking these rules (from pg 166 forward) will be met with severe punishment. |

Time to change your system MLG. You don't watch MLG very often do you? This is the finals. Naniwa was seeded there for is performance throughout the year. People who play MLG often are rewarded for that. Rewarded too well, imo. I rather them reward for consistency than a one hit wonder (even though their points do allow for 1 hit wonders getting into good seeds if they win the tournament). Naniwa being so consistent the whole year allowed him to take the last MLG off and practice his heart out for the finals.
Yeah, go tell that to MVP. The only MLG event champion not in the champion's bracket because MLG arbitrarily decided that a first place finish is only worth 1200 points.
Whatever, they're changing the system next year, so all this is moot.

Time to change your system MLG. Naniwa has played like 46 Bo3 in the MLG to get where he is. Your argument is upside down.
his argument would be upside down if those 46 bo3 were of the same quality as the ones leenock played

People cheer for Leenock more than MVP because:
- He's the underdog
- He's not a multi-time champion who has already won everything
- He made a huge comeback in game one
- He is a sixteen-year-old kid Plus he's cute and everyone thinks he's a young July
He`s no July until he loosens up a bit and starts doing stupid talkshow appearances involving panda costumes.

Heh, the last one puzzles me too. I guess many people don't realize how much better it is to get into games like RTS very early in order to be successful.

So at Dallas 2011, Moonan also forfieted to IdrA?
also at Ret, Sjow, and Slush all forfieted at Anahiem 2011?

Leenock need more ZvP that does NOT involve mutas to convert me (that is, that he's the best Zerg atm). He's proven his ZvT is the very best, maybe tied with DRG. Couldn't care less for his ZvZ. So yeah I can't wait to see this boys near future

Hey dudes.
Yes, I'm aware that NocNoc is a code S Zerg. All I was trying to imply is that he's been devoid of any major victories and was never really a favorite to win this tournament.
Hope you're all enjoying the tournament.
Now Ima go curl up at Tastosis' feet and watch the last games!

Umm, did I read that someone said people will never cheer for a Terran player? lolwut? Stop disillusioning yourselves..MMA's chant in Columbus was prolly the first biggest and loudest cheer...Quit your crying people
Erm... comparing one chant (of the son of Boxer) to when everyone freaks out when they see either a zerg win or a single baneling connect. Let's be real

Yeah, 4 Bo 3s in 3 days must indeed be very tiring. I wouldn't bother with the 750$ for 30 minutes "work" either.

Does Naniwa Already get Code S since everyone else left is Already in Code S?? Depends on whether DRG makes it high enough in this GSL to retain his Code S spot or not, probably... If DRG wins his Code S spot, he'll probably just forfeit his Code A match.
Since Naniwa is CoL, and DRG is Col.MVP, I'm not sure he will...But who knows...

Leenock is the future god of war, he's a monster.

seems like half of TL doesn't follow the GSL. Leenock has been an absolute beast for the past 2 months. He was already in code s back in the early seasons of GSL then kinda fell off and now he's back. (ro8 currently will play against aLive). I would bet it's much more than half that doesn't follow GSL.
He's never been a star player. No one has ever said Leenock is the caliber of Nestea or Losira. Either way, he had a good showing today and is doing great, I don't think many can deny that.

can someone tell me if there are code S spots up for grabs this time? I can't find anything about it anywhere.

Nani just has to place higher than DRG and he should be in Code S, since Leenock is in Code S atm. They're giving Code S spots to foreigners at this MLG?
foreigners have always been eligible for code s spots. they just have never been in the spot to receive them

They have been for a couple MLGs now.
