Yea.. but Squirtle's vT play is extremely boring. I respect the guy for getting this far, he's had a great tournament, but his play is just very uninteresting.

I dont understand why they didn't just make the ro8 single elimination with all bo5. That format is way better, makes every game more exciting, specially the final and semifinals.
This final day goes way too long, considering there were only 8 players left the whole day.
(Still a way better format than MLG's where group play is meaningless cause noone gets eliminated anyways)

coming from the open bracket and beating mma, mkp, bomber and nestea isn't interesting enough, sorry

Nestea is running on fumes. Jetlag is no joke.

Then Squirtle would be an idiot for seeing 10 speedlings and assuming baneling bust >.>

Beating Bomber, MMA, MKP and Nestea isn't enough of a storyline for you? o_0

Apparently getting all expense paid trip to Las Vegas and winning 7000$ in a weekend is small fries to these rock stars.

Yeah, but in beta, as far as I'm concerned, they were maybe 10% effective when not known. They certainly seem a lot less effective than, say, 5 pooling in SC1. I've been a bit out of the loop so I am surprised to see Nestea try baneling busts twice tonight but not surprised to see them both fail miserably.
To be fair, the second one was a win if he morphed one baneling 1 hex to the right. He just messed up with his positioning; Squirtles wall had no chance of holding it without the extra lair he made when he saw the baneling.

He also has to change his mindset about winning everything. You cannot win everything if there are that many tournaments all over the world. Third place is still extremely good. It may not please him now, but he did amazingly good, still.

It will be, Khaldor/Wolf said they were done for the night, and HD/Painuser just said there were too, unless dApollo had to leave or isn't well or something, it should be him with either Cats or DOA.

Funny how so many people discount the Finals because it's "unknown" players and don't have a big name yet.... Maybe it's time that they become big names?
Everyone except BW players were unknowns too... They had to win something to be known.

So does Squirtle have to win 2 Bo5s?
