Lets see if Nightend has a better PC than Grubby


lol. this is kinda sad. blizzard really should have lan for tournaments like this.


Its the computers this time. As with Naniwa it was just his pc having problems. Same with grubby, and likely same here.
Not that I disagree with you but just clarifying the irony of an Intel event with buggy computers.

Watching SC2 tournaments ruined by lag/lack of LAN is like watching a MLB game get rained out in a domed stadium.

Does anyone know why Stephano did not try to qualify for IEM Season VI? He did not participate in any of these qualifiers (NY, Cologne, Guangzhou, Kiev and Sao Paulo).

C'mon guys, let's try to be positive... all of this crashing and lagging means that now MMA has a little chance not to win the tournament!

Props to Rotterdam and MrBitter for it has been a hard day for them!

He lost to sLivko in the quarter finals of the last Sao Paulo qualifier. sLivko then lost to Xlord.

To HELL with apple pie. WAY overrated it's only popular because of its past success, way past it's prime though.

Ahem, sorry, just kinda had to join in the fun. God it's great seeing events like this though when literally every player's status is being questioned. "Kas is code S" "No he's not, it's just that Zenio no longer is code S!" "Grubby almost beat Zenio!" etc. I think the real tradgedy is that too few people realize it's not people playing bad, it's that everyone's playing REALLY well, so much so that if a player screws up a bit it looks like an absolutely MASSIVE mistake! Hopefully there will eventually be a shift where just because a foreigner beats a korean, it doesn't mean the foreigner got lucky, just that he played better than the korean on that day. Also, I've said it a couple times this thread but I'll say it again, Grubby played SO WELL today, and has been for the past couple of months. So excited about him.

Also, as an honest and not martyring question, I'm allowed to poke fun at the apple pie bit in the warning like that correct? I mean it's kind of there to say we don't need to take everything super serious as long as we're not being bigots about it right? Thank you in advance for your reply! If I'm wrong about that I'm so sorry and I'll edit the apple pie bit out right away.

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)

Seems like Nightend is dead already. It will be really really hard to get anything done, even getting a 3rd base.

There's so much downtime during this particular event people get bored, tired and irritable.
