Same drill as usual: - No caster bashing.
- Excessive tournament bashing that detracts from game discussion will be met with moderator action. Criticism is welcome, whining is not.
- In general do your best to stay on topic and discuss what we're all here for: the games.
Enjoy the games guys. |

Uhh what? I'm pretty sure Kiwikaki got 2nd at MLG Dallas..... I don't even think TT1 got top 8? I don't dislike TT1 but any means. but to say he is top 5 foreign protoss is kind of silly. Mana is an extremely strong Toss player. Also lol by your logic with mlg Incontrol is a better player too seeign as he was in group play for almost this entire year.....

MaNa has never gone to MLG, so ya he hasn't made pool play.

Comparing balance not at the very top level is pointless. I bolded the part that makes the 76-55 record irrelevant.

just wanted to point out a couple things the casters missed
The pylon full wall into kill-pylon-later is intentional I think. Rather than having to build 2 cannons, he makes 1 cannon + 1 pylon which is a bit cheaper, then kills it later when he no longer needs to deny the backdoor ling run by.
And the late cyber core with emphasis on getting a TON of probes is also intentional and how tt1 prefers to play, he likes his probes. Also the criticism for getting 6 WG but not doing anything with it is misunderstood I think.. getting more WG than normal in a passive build makes sense when you first are going for a faster econ like he was, plus having later warpgates as a result.
And lastly when tt1 did his sentry drops to FF the mineral patches, that was to deny mining time with basically only energy spent, energy that would just sit at max 200 anyway, yet they said it didn't do anything and sen is unharassable. He did however lose 1 sentry though. yeah I thought there might be more to that than most people assumed a couple of warp gates can be a long term investment as well if you produce a ton of early sentries and let them accumulate energy, even if they aren't used that much (although TT1 went for some prism harass as well)
yea.
btw I want to make it clear I'm not criticizing the casters, it's unreasonable to expect them to notice every single little thing. Casting is a lot tougher than I think people realize and I've respect for the long hours the casters put in at tournaments.

Except that map really is shit for Protoss. It is impossible to take a 3rd on the map and forces the toss to do some stupid 2 base all-in.

I don't think that's "how soon people forget" syndrome, but rather "how long some can remember." MLG Dallas from a year ago where no Koreans competed and PainUser got 3rd.

Are you delusional, ignorant, or just trolling? I don't even dislike TT1, but you either are oblivious to what Mana has done this year compared to TT1. He's far more accomplished and easily a much higher ranked foreigner toss.

oops sorry i was wrong that was international only.
Including international AND Korean TLPD results shows
ZvP 107 - 70 (65.42%)
So Zergs in every tournament that has used Dual Sight and is registered in TLPD win 65% of their games vs. Protoss on Dual Sight. So clearly dual sight is a Zerg map and the sample size (almost 200 games) is large enough to decide this. Maps have been cut in BW and SC2 in the past for fewer games played in the past with such high percentages of racial map imbalance in the past.

Which is a very valid statement. No offense to TT1 but even he says he's considered an underdog. Bottom line to say TT1 is top 2 Protoss in a tournament with HerO HuK Hasuobs MaNa and Hwangsin is just out right silly. IMO its pretty cleared the top 2 by far are HuK and HerO followed by Hasu then really a toss up(Pun definitely intended) between the rest. MaNa is better than Hasu, MaNa is the best Protoss in europe by far. By far. Look at your right(TLPD). (NaNi and SaSe are in Korea, just reminding.) TLPD.alright.thats all what counts What does count then? ladder ranking ?
ionno. we need a better ranking system. if you look at TLPD, Nestea is about rank 85 in the world. >_>

That's because he never plays foreign tournaments, to be fair.

no... so far we've seen HerO completely outclass Hwan in the first set, huk losing the war of the worlds vs Hasuobs, dimaga vs bratok with sloppy play by both, and finally sen making over 9000 roaches and outmacroing tt1

Wasn't there a MLG where it was Jinro vs TT1 (Jinro winning of course) before Jinro went to Korea?
