Nobody uses FF better than MC. Great execution of the 7gate

this indeed


wasn't a great execution at all, he was super late. The window for leenock to have prepared better was huge, leenock just screwed up bigtime by not preparing properly.
Such a 7 gate attack should really come sooner with +1 attack only, +1 armor is utterly useless against roaches and mc should have had way less zealots. That was leenock's game to lose and he did so, a simple rush to burrow while delaying the push would have easily won him the game, it's really easy to abuse burrow against almost pure zealot/sentry like MC had.
Leenock played awful the entire series against MC as if he is somehow afraid of playing a proper game against protoss.



I have never seen a zerg having burrow at 8.30

GSL could have punish him financially,


Are you serious? There would have been a HUGE shitstorm if GSL fined him... Plus how would they even enforce a fine on him since I don't think things work like NBA, NFL where they can fine the players.

This thread went quickly from "hail the new best zerg/player of all time, ever" to a discussion about how "leenock is overrated"/"zerg is broken".

You can tell competitive gaming is getting there when the hyperbole around it perfectly mirrors that of athletic sports.

If you seriously boycott the GSL for the Naniwa incident, you're an idiot cause he has himself admitted his fault and decided to not participate in this season by choice...


So for the record, I am not a Hardcore Naniwa fan. I respect him that's all.

I am not boycotting the all season of GSL just the first one. I am currently aware that Naniwa admitted his fault. I find myself his comportment childish but comprehensible. GSL could have punish him financially, because he embarrassed them on TV and show a lack of respect. But their decision to punish him in a sport manner is just wrong. By doing that I see a message "Hey we do what we want. This is our tournament, so behave yourself". I can't approve that.

This is not their tournament, this is our. Like Naniwa, GomTV owe us some respect. With their arbitrarily decision to revoke code S spot to Naniwa, without him breaking any rules, they disrespect the sport. We don't watch GSL because it's GSL. We watch GSL, because it's a sport competition with the best player. With their decision, they compromise the competition. I can't approve that.

By boycotting the first GSL of 2012 (and I hope I am not the only one), I remind GomTV they have to behave themselves. They have to respect the competition, it's not their tournament, it's our.


Yep. I am too, and for the same reason. I can't support a league that arbitrarily bans players for not even breaking an actual rule.


Naniwa wasn't banned, he could've qualified through Code A if he wanted to.


We don't need any more of these discussions but people saying that Naniwa was 'banned' just shows how ignorant of the whole situation they are.


I didn't mean banned like kicked out, but if you believe that they didn't rob him of his EARNED code S seed just because they fed some bullshit about how they hadn't chosen the seeds and the way they were going to give code S seeds magically changed for 2012 when MLG didnt even know about it yet... then idk what to tell you besides read between the lines. Also keeping up with the results doesn't support them so idc

that's nice, you're the one missing out anyways


From the amount of whining about cheese, it doesn't seem like it ;p. Although that's every tournament so who knows haha

lol, you've missed much already my friend. and cheese is mostly for MC games, which is expected.

Scared? IMMvp's TvZ is so solid that he will still own even without practising a whole week for it. Completely confident that Mvp will come first in the group, given that he had 3 weeks to practise against Zergs.



Yeah by scared i mean that he will probably be terrifying for his opponents..I dont think that they will have a chance tommorow


Yeah, but Mvp's dominance is better for Idra since he can focus on ZvZ to make it out of the group (i.e 2nd place) whether he wins or loses against NesTea.

The last couple times I saw MVP play his wrists seem to really be hurting him. It wouldn't surprise me at all if his opponents stood a chance tomorrow or even beat him.

Leenock has a pretty easy Code A bracket, July or Jjun, followed by Monster, Seed or Boxer


Oh, that's not bad at all. Game against seed would be interesting though.

ForGG gets cOre first round which will be interesting, don't think cOre is anything special but he might cause a few problems and I'm really not impressed by ForGG's TvP. Match with the winner of Losira vs TheStC in r2 would be crazy though.

I assume he meant that by punishing him financially, Gom just wouldn't give Naniwa the prize for his Blizzard Cup placing, since it 'didn't matter to him' when he decided to throw the game.

Do you really think Leenock had time to get the burrow upgrade? lol ...

Seriously tell us how Leenock could have defended that? He got roaches/crawlers as soon as he saw the all in and it wasn't even close ...
Artosis also said that MC's all in won't work.


Lings didnt have speed. Leenock let MC plant several pylons close to his 3rd. He took forever to make Spine Crawlers.


He didn't even got (or needed) lings, at least not many. How would they help vs mass zealots/sentry?

From what you're saying, Leenock should have stopped at 35 drones, get a lot of early roaches to prevent the pylons and also crawlers? All that while not knowing if MC will all in.

so u would rather choose the fate to die to mutalisks in midgame rather than stomping face with awesome 2base protoss playstyles? :D


i wanted to reply to this but every post i wrote came off as being a sick whine so i decided not to write anything LOL

Uh that push more came at like 10:00. +1 attack only push tends to be around 8:00 if it's just 4 gates, a 6 gate tends to hit around 9:00 and this 7 gate +1+1 was at least 10:00 probably 11:00
