So good to see MC made through today.

How boring would this game be to watch if beating someone 'more skilled' was impossible though? Even the best of the best only have ~70% win rates and that's a very good thing.


Not boring at all, it would make the inevitable upset that much more meaningful. When Flash lost his 14-0 winning streak it was big. Foreigner upsets in PvP are so common its almost standard.

If upsets are inevitable then we're agreeing with one another, not disagreeing. When I said the best of the best only have ~70% win rates that includes Flash.

Inevitable when a better player comes along. Not inevitable because the matchup is impossible to win consistently in.

Somehow I feel that this question has already been asked, but not sure if I can look through all pages to find the answer:

How come they end playing at 18? Isn't there another good 3 hours at least of playing time? Not that they would have time to finish all the games though... But still, I want more :s

We are indeed very butthurt that Koreans took top 3 in Group A and top 1 in Group B. It was a bad day for Koreans indeed.

at least i have something to laugh about when idra loses tomorrow and keeps blaming the "terrible conditions" on it... and huk talking about pvp - HuK, who plays PvP like a fusion of InCa and BitbyBit, mixing 4 gate with dts and flipping the coin.


meh i kinda agree, huk and idra are a bunch of drama queens most of the time. huk not so much but idra is the biggest whiner of all the pro-gamers.

Because SC2 should be a game where favorites win 100% of their games vs less skilled players, right?

Elfi was the better player today, deal with it.


I was just talking about pvp, and elfi was not the better player today. MC's 1st in group and elfi's 2nd. Don't be so sensitive.


If you were talking about PvP then don't include their results vs Nerchio in this discussion.

I said that Elfi was the better player between him and MC today, in this matchup. It wasn't luck that won him those games, it was his superior micro during ~110/110 supply fights.

Holy crap, that was awesome. Gogogogo elfi!

And there's more to playing strategy games than mere execution. What a surprise.

None of the fights in any of the games were even.

The guy with more stuff won all three games all the point of the a moving.

well look at the thread, whenever even one match went to a foreigner many people discredit them, and only because pvp is more volatile than other matchups does not mean it is a pure coinflip or meaningless to deduct skills, that is just degrading and disrespectful.

tho the bias is strong on all sides for that matter.

Chris Loranger ‏ @LorangerChris
everyon1 watch the esl stream and seriously look at the player cam of elfi, look at the lightning speed of his hands, and him beat MC. pvp..


didn't elfi destroy huk with those lightning speed hands? isn't it ironic


Not at all, he's mocking PvP, why would it be ironic that he lost in a matchup he thinks is stupid?


lol dude are you for real? he's mocking elfi and trying to belittle elfi's accomplishment as a good pvp player. what on earth justifies such bitter tweets while someone else is playing a really hard game?

he isn't funny and isn't even right.


Are you for real? Look at the last sentence: "pvp.."

As in, he thinks it's a joke that someone as slow as elfi can beat someone like MC.

Yes, he is mocking elfi, but it's not ironic because he's mocking the ridiculousness of PvP. He is superior in the other matchups because he is the superior player mechanically, but overall mechanics are not necessarily that important in PvP.


yeah you're right it's really classy to mock someone who kicked you're ass instead of recognizing that it's not all mechanics and elfi's really good at mindgames and game sense.

people like you give shit to goody too... i really hope elfi continues to beat the shit out of all your favorite protosses. yeah he's not that awesome at other matchups but his pvp is really world class, deal with it


What are you even ranting about lmao. "Deal with it" as if I care, I was correcting you about what Huk's intentions were with his statement. He beat my favorite player but MC is still first in the group, I couldn't care less.



and what the hell do you know about huk's intentions? it seems quite obvious that he is just bitter, and obviously you like huk better than elfi so you make an excuse for him.

or yeah you're right huk is just mocking the matchup which happens to be his worst, in which elfi beat his ass, and coincidentally he mocks elfi a little bit either, but this is all nice and good and justified because you like huk.


Sounds like you just like elfi lmao? What are you even talking about, when did I say Huk's not bitter? I was stating that it's not ironic that he mocked the matchup just because he lost to the person, because that's not the definition of ironic at all. I couldn't care less about elfi or Huk.


an ironic situation can be when someone says something, when in fact the opposite is true. you know when huk thinks his mechanics should give him an edge in pvp, while in fact elfi's other abilities gave elfi an edge vs huk. i see you're trying to be smart here but irony doesn't only mean that your intended meaning is the opposite of what you actually say.
