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.

MLG is so ridiculous, there's NO ADVANTAGE to winning the winners bracket?!


If naniwa went 2-1 he would have won, leenock essentially has to win 2 bo3's, nani has to win 1.


Uh, no, it's a BO7 now straight up. They're not doing a second bo3.

how can people cheer for leenock for all inning?


Because:
They find it exciting?
They are not butthurt about race balance?
They acknowledge that this guys are playing to win?
They are being entertained?



The true answer is because the crowd is extreamly anti Naniwa they have been booing him all weekend

When people are emotionally invested they just want their player to win, and don't care how.
I'm not bad at Starcraft; I just think winning's rude.

?_? he's been cheesing every game thus far.

I mean sure if you think its clever play but he's been doing the same thing 3 times now + a blind 7 pool.


Answer me, how many times this tournament has nani FFE's? How many? Oh, every game except like 1? LOL t.t. more.

Maybe Leenock is strategically trying to make Naniwa angry.

Starcraft 2 is all about adapting.. if you FFE every game you leave yourself open to this.

Fore everyone hating on leenock cheesing, If you do the same opening every time, leenocks gonna do a strategy that kills it most if not all of the time. blame naniwa for being so predictable. Nani needs to switch it up, because if he does it again, he's dead.

naniwa need to scout more if he going to ffe again.


How the hell do you scout with a probe vs speedlings?


Hide one earlier like a lot of protoss.

Basically naniwa is just getting punished and isn't doing anything about it.

Well, it was pretty cheesy. I still don't know why people are so hurt about it. The moment naniwas scouting got denied he should have played safer.

he beat mvp in a macro game, should be enoghh


This is the cheesiest I've ever seen Leenock play. Please watch other Leenock games before assuming roach rush when you only see 1 series. He played standard versus DRG and in all his Code S games this season.

Also he beat Nada with a 6pool.

That's the best counter to a Fast Forge Expand (FFE)... Why go into a macro game with Toss when you can finish him early. And MOST zergs are doing this to Toss on the ladder already.

does that mean all terrans should go 1/1/1 all in vs protoss who early expo?


Uhh...no. Early expo is what kills 1/1/1

Nice "metagaming" from Leenock !
If you KNOW toss is going to FFE, you have to make him pay for it.


Toss always FFE? What? You want him to 4-gate and we'll have you whining here again anyway?
