So why do they keep sending terrans at thorzain..? That's easily his best matchup, and he beat yoda last time.

A build which barely worked at the best of times, and definitely doesn't work since the Hellion nerf. I'd love to say that Thorzain won the game due to his skill, but Apocalypse played terrible.


It also relies heavily on mobility... and mobility isn't rly worth that much on Shattered where you can easily turtle on 3-4 bases. If he tried it on Tal'Darim I would have understood it more.

TWO BEST OF NINES!?

Jesus. I mean, yeah it makes sense but my god! That's a hell of a lot of starcraft!
I root for Euro Zergs, NA Protoss* and Korean Terrans. (Any North American who has beat a Korean Pro as Protoss counts as NA Toss)

Never said it worked "well" just that it wasn't mech.

I think it was foolish to get cloaked banshee when your opponent's first starport unit was a raven ...

TvT was his best match-up for a while, but I don't think it is his best match-up anymore.

Suprized? No. Ready for the incoming excuses? Yes.

Did you watch DRG play? If someone told me he took a fire extinguisher to the head right before he played and then took like 10 sleeping pills I'd believe them.



Quotes by John Wooden:
1. Don't Whine
2. Don't Complain
3. Don't make Excuses

You just violated all three. Accept your loss like a man.


Hah. I acknowledge that Mouz certainly earned that win and played very well, but any logical person can't deny that MVP didn't send out the best lineup possible, nor can a logical person deny that DRG played pretty badly relative to the standard he usually sets for himself. I'd rather analyze things carefully and consider all factors objectively rather than close my ears and chant "No whining, no excuses, nah nah nah". Mouz deserved the win for sure, especially with some amazing play from Thorzain, but MVP definitely didn't send out their best lineup, and DRG's weak performance was an exception, not a norm.


Violated all three yet again.
If you don't like that team losing. Get good at starcraft, join them, and dominate for them. Until then. Accept it.

I really can't find any other words so I'm just going to go right ahead and say that you are an idiot. Straight up moronic post on your behalf. Spectators have the right to critique professionals because we know what to expect from th; their level of performance is not some hidden knowledge. Holy arrow provided a clear, intelligent post as to why mouz's win is not earth shattering and you reply with possibly the dumbest rhetoric imaginable. Am I professional football player? No but that doesn't stop me from yelling and screaming when Suarez misses a sitter or plays like shit. You don't have to be a professional to criticize a professional..

And it would do you good to actually address holy arrow's points rather than just ignoring them as "whine"


Calling me an idiot solves nothing.

My point is that it accomplish's nothing to use all of these what-if scenarios. I'm saying to just accept that Mouz won. All of these excuses and whining about why one team lost is getting old.

On the thorzaine 5-0ing the first set. I am exspecting this. The only player who can take him out in a macro game would be keen. Although its about 50-50 between them lol.

I think for the second IPL TAC the finals should be a Bo5, then a Bo9. The winner bracket still retains an advantage, but it doesn't become almost impossible to watch the finals in one sitting.

Yup. Maddening game, but I'm sure Yoda can show better. And then Thorzain can show even better than that!

Well, considering he said it was his best matchup at NASL 2, I don't know why it would change so quickly...

They want to wear him out. When it comes to a second Bo9, Thorzain's gonna have played 5 TvTs and will be exhausted. So they'll have one less player to worry about.
Always smile~

Based on his history I'd say it's his tvp, in fact that was what he was renowned for for awhile. It's also slightly higher with more games played statistically. But if he says so..
