If the numerous instances of red text in this thread weren't clear enough, it's time to simmer down, and think before you post.

IdrA-HuK was pretty good, and they were clearly trying. I don't think this is a matter of Machine and iNc not playing seriously.



i dunno, huk just doing variations on blink stalker timings was hardly what i would call a 'show'. idras lack of a desire to attack is the only thing that made half the games long. would of liked to see them vary it up a bit. the games had some high quality play from idra, but huk didnt seem bothered until his back was against the wall, then he seemed to step it up.

Idra said a long time ago that the reason Huk has good PvZ is because he refuses to attack....

Edit: and those rocks on the gold should be dedicated to MKP.

Overall not the quality I was expecting.

Then again, I didn't know professional gamers take two months of christmas break and then - right afterwards - play showmatches that get broadcasted three months later although they were hyped as "live" games. I mean...what?

Well, I'm happy to have seen Huk face Idra.

My bet would be that these these games are live casted off replays and orb most likely does not know how old the replays were..

I'm nowhere near being a progamer, but I play starcraft 2 every just because I like to. Why do you not play for 2 months?

Great games, super entertaining. I dislike how people call iNcontroL's style "bad" or whatever, but guys like TLO are called creative. I think it's really cool that iNcontroL pulls off a style like that (abusing hatchery openings, not being afraid to commit to cannons and airplay), and still hang in there with top players.

Anyways, enjoyed the shit out of the series. To all the haters, it's fucking free. You paid nothing and are entitled to whatever they give you. Enjoy the games, or don't watch them.

A big EG fan here but you call a spade a spade, that Incontrol vs. machine series wasn't exactly the high quality. Never the less I enjoyed the content.

Huk and IdrA smalltalk was pretty hilarious.

It's EG. They are mainly putting content out to advertise.
