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 getting the GSL curse?

Also, HuK ruined it last time, but Leenock is yet another player to win the first MLG he attends. What a badass.

and also, let us take a moment to recognise the two unsung heroes of this MLG: VileIllusion who had a great run through the open bracket, and HayprO, who is just the sickest nerd baller of all time defeating someone who just doesn't lose ZvZ.

lol his mindgames were terrible. He went the same build every game. Naniwa in the last game was attempting to adjust to the mindgames, assuming that Leenock would in fact mindgame and open hatch first (as somebody suggested he might do to super mindgame Naniwa) except Leenock did not. He didn't think that far ahead, it was in fact more of a case of "When in doubt, cheese, always get another shot anyway if it fails". Played to win, won, but was not the better player imo.


And if Naniwa didn't go for the same build every game then the aggression would not have worked. Leenock abused Naniwa's inflexible playstyle, hence he is the better player.

Naniwa beating himself up so bad as he always does after a second place finish

+ this

Just spoke to Naniwa, he's sad the crowd boo'ed him, will bottle up his emotions till he wins the championship. Leenock wants a shot. #MLG


makes me sad

Leenock is an absolute beast, looking at his path there is no way you can talk trash, he deserved it.

Was rooting for naniwa, but he got outplayed. Deserved win from leenock.
What's disgusting is that crowd was boo-ing naniwa and all the hate he got here. Mostly because many people here think it's guilty until proven innocent. He showed so much talent these days and people just hated him for dumb reasons. Disgusting.

Naniwa punishes DRG with 2 base attack when DRG takes gold on Metalopolis; people say "Not another 2 base all-in!, naniwa sucks"

Leenock punishes Naniwa's greedy and one-dimensional openings with Roaches early; people say " He was cleverly punishing naniwa for playing greedy that was so clever "

It's all strategies you make accordingly, can't you get it? I will ban myself from LR threads.

Gz Leenock, for your well deserved - long waited success.

This is pretty ridiculous. My approach all the time has been that DRG's (and the other zergs Nani beat) strategies were retarded and would obviously lose to the incoming 2-base timing. I have no idea why people were bashing nani so bad for it, since it only made sense.

Now leenock does the exact same thing and gets some flak. Some people just don't seem to understand this game, you can't just make a strategy beat another one when it's obviously gonna lose.

DRG: "Oh so nani loves those 2-base timings, I'm gonna go for a 3-base late muta timing then! Twice in a row!!" WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU THINKING?!

Nani: "Oh, I've lost 3 times to this roach/ling aggression on my FFE, let's see, I should pick XNC and go NEXUS FIRST" WHAT THE FUCK DUDE?!?!

It's like the worst strategizing possible. Nani had 2 BO wins vs DRG, Leenock had 4 easy BO wins vs Nani because he couldn't change his plan, it's actually that simple.
