I kinda like Nightend's Protoss style, it usually is unbearable to watch any Protoss game from a spectator point of view because of the poor design, but Nightend make me linger more than I usually do.

The stalkers were under the broodlords.
This is totally unacceptable, iem should give Nightend some sort of compensation.

Worst PvZ I've seen in a while

did you see Hero vs Violet in homestory cup on Metalopolis? A lot of people were distracted by how awesome the MKP/MC/Reis commentary was, but the game was actually an absolute trainwreck

I'm sorry to say this and I really hate to do it, but this IEM so far has been a fucking joke. Players have practiced so much for it and they cant play like they would because it lags like hell. I know very well how much Grubby and Nightend practiced to have good results and going to a tournament to find laggy computers just puts your morale too down, you will play bad basically every single game.

can't wait for all the sub-15 minute games because the computers can't handle more than a collective ~150 supply on the screen at once :D

It will be a complete disgrace if they don't regame that.

How fucking obvious can it be that lag changed the entire outcome of that battle?

Actually I'm pretty sure it's the computers that make the game lag, always starts when a big battle happens.

I'm actually quite disappointed after that day:
First of all there were many problems with the games, therefore the drama
about Naniwa began. Just don't know why Naniwa can play the games versus WhiteRa
and Titan after forfeiting his spot in the Tournament.
I don't know what I should think about this... and Naniwa played quite disappointing,
not the mechanics but in fact that he was using every single game in his PvPs the
2 Gate Blink aggression. Of course it worked out very well but it was a bit boring to watch
in my opinion.


i play to win not for your entertainment

Can't wait to watch WhiteRa win ^^

I feel really bad for Nightend right now. That was a very promising position he was in when the lag hit.
I close one eye, and I see half. I close both, and I see everything.

Nighend would've won the engagement desicively if it didn't start lagging right after his blink, I think we all can see that. Even just a shift-click on the BLs would have been enough.

Nightend is out, he loses. Zenio doesn't deserve to advance, he loses.
Battlenet 2.0, wins.

so zenio went bunch of lings --> overreacting to fake DT expo --> +1 roach range (but only built TWO roaches) --> ling infestor --> muta --> BLs?

and he won?

nightend just way too afraid, nerves must have got to him a bit, but so unfortunate with the lag...

Don't find myself agreeing with you all that often, but completely agreed on this one. This IEM has been a complete disaster thusfar, and it's a real shame to see for all the people involved :<
