Apparently some people are dumb enough to STILL be asking for it, so let's make things clear:

Do NOT ask for re-streams, and do NOT post re-streams.

Do not come here and muddle the thread by bitching about PPV.

Why does it feel like almost all of Huk's tournament successes are based heavily on the semi coinflip that is PvP. His bracket is like the ultimate bracket for him, gift from heaven.


On the flipside he's been knocked out early from several tournaments thanks to having to PvP against players considered worse than him, so it kinda evens out over the long run.

MKP can totally rape Huk but can never see him beating DRG in a best of 7...

He did beat DRG in a BO7 in the first GSL AOL. It's very possible with the way MKP is playing recently.


Isn't the final BO3?

idk, TvP is pretty fucking hard right now and i think Huk said his PvT is his best match up.

MKP has a godly and probably the best TvP and just 2-0'd PARTING, probably the best PvTer right now (either Parting or Genius). I have faith.

Parting beats DRG, MKP beats Huk, Parting beats Huk, MKP beats parting. Also know as how I want day 3 to turn out. Good day of games and now bed.

No way DRG drops another series to Parting, these games last night were so flukey, DRG should have 2-0'd him.

Wow overhype much? Until he wins GSL over a shitload of Terrans, I'm not calling him the 'best' PvTer out there.

Also, does this tournament have a lot more cheese than usual because of the relaxed, HomeStory-like atmosphere or are these legitimate strats in their play when going against such tough competition? Is that just me?

(editorial remark: I don't mind cheese at all. But if you told me a week ago that Nestea, Leenock, and DRG would 6-10 pool in the same day, I would have called you crazy)


By this point, a lot of players have certain reputations such as IdrA and Naniwa, so players are going to try to use that to their advantage.

Basically it's just very intense metagaming going on.
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)

this is so far my second favourite tournament in sc2 history right after homestory cup 4. all these funny, amazing dramatic things that happened today. i also think the casters are much better when they dont have to entertain a live audience and scream every to seconds "make some noice for player a if you want him to win..." (im looking at you day9). GOGO MKP

Casting has been excellent (aside from Tumba who I just feel is awful), I agree the no crowd made it better. If anything it should be a lesson that even when they do have a crowd they shouldn't cater their casting 100% twoards it, as Day 9 tends to do.

Nope. Unless you mean in MLG, in which case I have no idea. Isn't it best of seven with the player from WB being one game up from the start?

MKP is 38-6 in TVP since his loss against Huk in MLG Orlando.
None but a coward dares to boast that he has never known fear.

You guys do realise that Huk would have faced MVP if he was not defeated by Ret.

It's not. He has Creator as a practice partner and when Creator's macro-style suddenly becomes the norm like this, it's to be expected.

I actually think a timing oriented protoss would do better against MKP to be honest. hmm. But that's me theory crafting so probably wrong. xD

I don't get why any of the Naniwa supporters think they have any weight in any of their arguments here. He's never really accomplished anything major that people actually respect. It's bordering on obscenely comical behavior. Nevertheless, the final 6 we have is a truly great group of respectable people who I can all cheer for and share in their mlg championship.

Karma.
