Oh this should be good :D though Dragon has this :D
|
HEY SHINDIGS. anyways, im looking forward to this!!
|
If I'm not playing Mass Effect 3 like a madman I'll definitely tune in!
|
Won't be watching unless Katu is casting 
Golden should have the upper hand here though, he's a fantastic player.
|
Should not be that close, as Golden is an incredibly scary player who has singlehandedly destroyed entire teams in Team Arena. Still interesting to see two former teammates playing.
|
Dragon's been getting a lot of attention lately. 1 for Golden though 
|
I love both Dragon & Golden ^o^
Going to be very interesting to watch
Yay TteSPORTS! I would love your swag :o

|
GOGO GOLDEN !!! IM UNBIASED
|
This looks sick, i cant wait!!! Homofamily for life!!!! except its going to be at 2 am gmt... looks like it will be a late one.
|
Upping the stakes, winner will be crowned KING OF HIPSTERS
|
lets go dragon!! Get that success!
|
I don't think I've seen Golden play publicly before, this is going to be an awesome match, thanks for sponsoring this Tt eSPORTS. Can't wait, hopefully it's an awesome match-up.
Dragon Fighting ♥ :D

too many dragon fan boys voting. Golden should win this, he's good, code A level. Dragon's like more like a Destiny type of player.... no real results but a ton of fan boys.

Dragon's like destiny... lol are you serious? Since when has dragon ever had a chance to prove himself? He hasnt attended any major event yet due to no support whatsoever (hes just going now due to playhem), and since when was golden ever in code A?

oh god.. , and saying dragon is like destiny is a kick in the teeth to him.. he has been in the GSL and it will be tough but should prove himself at IPL / Lone star clash

Oh did you. Dragon attended gsl some time after he claimed he wouldn't go pro so obviously he did want to give it another shot and i know for a fact you know that. Plus one of the likely reasons he left slayers is cause they gave him no support or a spot at the teamhouse which is exactly what he wants right now, to attend foreign tournaments, and, i can't confirm this, but i was told he was gonna try to qualify for the gsl again this season. Anyway comments like these are no suprise from you, I have been noticing lately you take any chance you can to damage dragons image but that's already getting offtopic so don't expect me to argue about it
|
I don't get why you people make such a big deal about Dragon saying he didn't want to compete. so what... He said he didn't want to compete.
Now he does, big deal l0l.

Dragon is so legit, he really needs a team! He's definitely a stream personality at the least, and is beating really good players!

Althought Golden never made it into Code A, he has beaten many Code A/S players and gotten deep in the Code A qualifiers many times, often losing in a close series. He's also consistently in GM Korea. Dragon is good but he's nothing compared to the other mid level Koreans. Dragon constantly loses early round matches to no name players on online tournaments. Dragon is more of an entertainer than serious programer. Fan boys need to accept reality and stop being butt hurt when people say he's no good.

Oh yeah then I guess almost eliminating nestea off gsl, being number 1 GM on NA server and being a top Korea master playing grandmasters counts for nothing then. :/. As for the tournaments, being on a timezone that makes it possible for dragon to only play European cups is pretty cool too, playing with massive latency makes micro and gameplay overall easier and more effective

I'm sorry, but... Being #1 GM on NA is actually worth jack shit. To be perfectly honest, ladder ranking regardless of whether its on KR or NA is absolutely worthless (although it can be argued that GM KR is to some extent home to some of the best players in the world, only because it actually IS - ie polt, DRG etc etc) And while I am a huge fan of Dragon, don't get me wrong, I am still holding my breath to see him play against better players and actually win. The other poster is right when he says he loses to noname NA players in the playhem dailies - its kind of painful to watch, to be honest, and I really hope he can be something great cuz I feel the potential is there, he just hasn't had the opportunity to really go pro at all especially since the thesTc conflict.

Hes actually been playing better latly when hes been playing serious beating players like LiquidZenio and LiquidHaypro on the ladder more than once

This should be a fun match, hope the community enjoys events like this. Expect similar stuff in the future!

Golden Fighting! One of my most favorite players in Korea, I can't wait to see him 4-0
|
|
|
Whos observing? There is soo much action being missed (game 2 atm) instead focused at stare-ing at marine/tank standing around.
|
what the hell did i just witness
|
|
|
Golden is clowning Dragon right now, but I'm not sure how serious the whole thing is anyway.
|
All hail the king of hipsters!!!
|
So when Golden goes up 3-1 with trollish strategies, Dragon gets serious and takes a game by killing 20 workers early with hellions. Then he proxy rax/bunker rush Golden and Golden embarrasses him by baneling busting his main while Dragon kills the hatch at his nat. GGs Golden, 4-2.
|
Hmm, not bad Dragon. Still a respectable performance by him.

both are great players, but overall, Golden is a better player, not by far but has a distance.

Awesome use of 80 banelings by Golden. I guess he beasted when he realized the title of "King of Hipsters" was on the line
