Nani now has no chance of getting out of the group


If MMA loses to polt and nani then nani goes through and MMA doesn't


If Naniwa wins against MMA and Nestea, he is in the same position Stephano was in yesterday, which for Stephano, at least, wasn't a comfortable position. Not saying he has no chance, as I'm rooting for him, but this has to suck.

Polt & Leenock clear to advance?
If MMA loses all his games & Naniwa wins his, Naniwa advances, otherwise MMA.

Am I right?

yes, since leenock and polt have to face each other and both hold a tiebreaker with naniwa in the event of 2-2


Leenock also has to beat Polt.

Naniwa > MMA
Leenock > Polt
Naniwa > Nestea
Polt > MMA

The final score will be

Leenock 3-1
Polt 3-1
Naniwa 2-2
MMA 2-2

Naniwa wins against MMA so he wins the tiebreaker.

That's the only way for Nani to advance.

Well if Leenock loses to polt and you have Polt 4-0, Leenock/MMA/Naniwa 2-2 do we play more games for tiebreakers?


yes

or that naniwa played poorly

are you serious?


It's okay. They fail to see that Polt virtually had to do nothing to make his attack succeed and would rather look that Naniwa made a mistake. That's the problem with playing against Terran. It's never the simplicity of their build that shouldn't work in the first place that comes into the question, it's "You defended poorly." Even when you have more supply, or are an extra base ahead. Just call'em blind.


Because it's that simple. THAT is how you improve at this game. It's a problem with western culture mentality. Kids like you would rather blame imbalance than supposed you can do things better to improve your play. Naniwa made a ton of mistakes. Simple as that.

Polt's build was easy to pull off, and he made no mistakes pulling it off, simple as that. Simple. Stop whining.


Polt made no mistakes pulling it off? Please tell me this is a fucking joke. He played awful the entire game, just as bad as Naniwa did at the end.



name a single mistake polt made, please I dare you.

Concussive shell forgotten

Are you sure that was a mistake?


If he chose to not get concussive shell pushing with mostly marines against stalkers was a mistake. Either way, it was a pretty significant mistake.


How is that a mistake? Conc shell does nothing for marines.


Another thing to consider is that he stopped marking marauders after he saw his Combat Shield timing failed, and started dumping all of his precious gas into the 2-1-1 all in.

Not getting Concussive Shells was probably part of a greater contingency plan if the first push went awry.

The fucking joke is your bias and whining. Get over it, he lost.


Nice analyzing of the game.. "Get over it. He lost." I wish I could be as insightful as you are.


Better than "This games fucking broken!" argument. Where was your analysis again? You're only arguing because you were called out. You know you're wrong and you're pissed about it.

Grow up and get over it, he lost.

I know the format is a bit shaky, but this tournament really rocks. It may be me just missing GSL, I haven't been able to watch since school started cause of the GOM player. But now it's on twitch, I can actually get mah GSL fix.

Except this is exactly what being professional is...
I already hate the "non professional" argument, but it's even worse when being mis-used.


By being professional I mean as compared to sports casters (the only thing I think we can really compare SC2 casters too imo). It is not the job of the sports caster to sell tickets/advertise etc. You want to run an ad in between games selling me tickets? That's fine. The casters are there to talk about what's going on with the game, not to interject that with ads. To me that is being unprofessional as in they are doing something that shouldn't be their job.


What the fuck are you serious...

I've heard commentators for sports and random events talk about their sponsors all the time. "We'd like to thank <insert vehicle company> or McDonalds for helping give money to this basketball tournament or random football bowl/cup. I don't see how it's any different from Moletrap and Khaldor repping GOMTV.

It's not like Moletrap is interrupting the middle of a heated micro battle that could determine the game and then he mentions selling GSL tickets. For example: "MMA's tanks are perfectly positioned and his marines are stutter stepping and spreading out magnificently as he avoids the mutalisk/baneling final attack and btw if you want you can check out Gom TV website to purchase annual season tickets to support GOMTV."

^^^ Usually does not happen. Usually they will give their ad speech at a point in the game where nothing exciting is happening or before the game even begins.

Sweet. Leenock and Polt are set to advance now, right? Since both of them have beaten Nani.


Yes, both are into the Ro6.

Naniwa can advance if he beats MMA and Nestea + Polt beating MMA.

Awesome. Would love to see Naniwa take the third spot. It can happen. Calm of the Storm is good for P and he's beaten Nestea before and Nestea already is eliminated. And Polt beats MMA, like always.

2nd grade mindgames from Leenock; saying he'd kill Nestea with early aggression to make Nestea think that he was mindgaming and intending to go macro-game while actually going early aggression.
Yeah?

not only is ConcShell 50/50 and one of the fastest upgrades in the game, but you really need just ONE marauder to mess up a protoss early game. in fact, marines have more dps/supply and cost, especially vs zealots.

so yes, i would say that he forgot it.


Better send out an open letter about it then to the Korean Terrans because that was a very standard and widely used build
