Obviously he won the series and "played better", that doesn't make him the better player oh man this is why I don't usually bother posting in LR threads any more, everyone is so petty and loves arguing semantics, have fun  | ||

The other issue is about a player dropping from the game whilst arguably being in a couple of ways and fanboys from either side arguing about it. The point is that you don't win a game by being ahead, you win the game by killing your opponent. When Idra leaves early, he forgets that and considers he lost when he's at a disavantadge that he can somehow overcome. Which is the same mistake made by people saying there shouldn't have been a rematch between MC an Whitera. Whitera was ahead, but MC was nowhere near GG'ing (because he's no Idra) | ||

About a 50% win rate. Elfi has lost shit loads of PvP's recently to even total no names. MC has won 5 and lost 3 PvP's in the last six months. PvP was actually more skill based when everyone just 4 gated because at least it was all micro rather than just mind games and blind guessing. As for Oz he's played 23 PvP games which is nothing and international he's only 5-5 losing to Wannebecool and Huk. | ||

Can't you tell both have the same kind of mentality? Or am I being too logical to argue with a blind fanboi? No, you don't get it. Idra's job is to win and he should damn well try everythign he can and not GG just because he feels unhappy with the ingame situation he got himself into. White-Ra was on the way of soundly beating MC in a Macro game and then Bnet or his Computer denied him the final push. People wanted to see him crush MC and got a little emotional/irrational. It was a clear situation for a regame even tho White-Ra wins that game probably 9 out of 10 times, no one wass seriously calling the regame the "wrong" decision. Btw: With Idra in MC's place this would never have happened, Idra would probably have scouted White-Ra, saw that he is behind and tapped out.. Like the true boss he is... It's not the same at all. | ||

Still better than ZvZ, but not half as good as TvT  I am rooting for Killer tho. He looks so handsome ^^ | ||

Except it's PvP..>_> | ||

No, people legitimately believed that the game should've been given to Whitera. | ||

Except it is MC and White-ra, two very skilled players. The match up between them requires skill and white-ra played better. He is not usually the better player but in this series he was clearly best. | ||

The mid game of ZvZ has some variations and actual timings to hit, PvP is just turtle to 200/200 and see who gets the first colossi shot off in the main engagement. Game 3 MC tried some cute stuff but in the end it doesn't even matter to a turtling protoss  Never thought I'd see the day where protoss suddenly overwhelmed tournaments, it's weird because nothing seemed to change but for some reason builds that used to get crushed easily are working again in some matchups like PvZ. | ||
