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.

Yeah. I don't know why Leenock showed his roaches to Naniwa. It was totally unavoidable since his advance group of lings were about to take out Naniwa's zealots.

Is there a way to beat zerg consistently without FFE? I don't think so, Zergs have gotten really smart about timings and almost any other openers. FFE is the safest one overall.

If Leenock wins, he will be the first player to ever win an MLG from the loser's bracket, at his first MLG.

That's the Royalist Road if we ever saw one.

Winning a game doesn't mean it was enjoyable to watch for people.

Yes but winning the way Leenock is winning doesn't mean he is a terrible player; in fact what he is doing proves that he is an intelligent player that has really thought about his strategies

I get that the games aren't entertaining, but appreciate the strategy and mind games behind it

love the people calling out cheese, like it's wrong in this situation. If it's FFE then you punish it if you can. Maybe nani might want to not FFE one time and see if he can hold it (which he would).

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?

And its a shame to see a TL mod being a mindless zerg fanboi. By your opinion all those times bit by bit went scv rush was because he realized the predictable strategy of zergs going hatch first and wanted to punish them by making a brilliant decision of scv all in.

Why doesnt Naniwa understand he will face cheese every game? He has had 2 roach all-ins, 1 roach rush into drones plus a 6 pool....


Probably because he wants to cut corners to use his own timings (that he's been doing all tournament). Leenock is countering him perfectly. Naniwa probably doesn't think he can win otherwise and continues being stubborn with his strategies.

If he's only prepared FFE's it makes sense to do that rather than rely on unpracticed, unrefined builds.

Exactly this. He figured his style out and is punishing it.

Seriously... what happened to Starcraft 2? Cheese every game...


Right now, Leenock happened. :p

Not that he's the first or last, for me it's just shameful to see his rushing crap every single final game.

Fast expand derp every game though, punish or let him get that extra base? It seems rather logical.

It's not whining about cheese.
It's more like whining about the gross bias of when naniwa does 2-base pushes, everyone shits on him, then leenock cheeses 4 games in a row and he's a god lol

ALL WE WANT IS EQUALITY! ;-;


stop whining about bias when we're on TL. you really think TL isn't a big foreigner fanclub? dont be delusional
